Without Kane we're relegation level.

So are you 'Levy Out'? :wink:

Good win. Showed some heart in the second half. Not Spursy.

Nah. I could go into more detail about that, but I don't hate Levy or ENIC like a lot of fans do.

What a beautiful first half. 3-0 could have been more but sheer class.

Lester so solid.

This game against West Ham is for the top 4. Literally shaking and expecting the worst

I don't think West Ham are a threat to you. We played our worst football of the season to go 3-0 down and even then we should have won. I guess I'd prefer a draw for the two of you so that it takes a point out of the picture but your big game will be against us (well both of them actually).

We're so bipolar though. I have more faith in the effort we'll give against Madrid than this West Ham match upcoming.

Defensively still solid, but going forward is a mess.

Yet you don't want to play Abrahams.

Would be shocked if he got iced again for West Ham

Arsenal lose again. 9th in the prem with only a handful of games to go. How is Arteta still in a job with that squad?

I Think Wenger"s arsenal never got less than 63 points (in 22 years). Arteta's Arsenal now has a max of 61.

Sacking Arteta isn't the solution imo.
There's really just a lack of quality in the squad.
We depend on teenagers...

Doesn't help both our strikers are out.

You'd know better than me but until recently you've had full options up front for most of the season and just seem to underperform. As an outsider Arteta seems to have done nothing in over a year.

Now you see why I was in favor of it. We won't qualify without it.

Talks about Spotify CEO possibly buying Arsenal with the backing of Henry, Vieira and Bergkamp. Doubt Kroenke would ever sell.

Why not? His reputation is down the toilet.

Might as well sell for a good price.

He comes off as a guy that just doesnt care just like the Glazers. I will say that out of all the owners involved in the Super League Kroenke would be the one feeling the heat the most imo so we will see what happens.

That's absolutely the case. He plays extremely rough and stays almost totally out of the public spotlight so any heat is blunted, especially in this case as I'm pretty sure he's barely set foot in England. So unfortunately, he isn't going to give a flying f*ck about protests half a world a way. I don't have encyclopedic recall, but he's pulled some loathsome crap as owner of the Rams, including leaving the city of St Louis holding the bag for something like $60 million still to pay on renovations to a stadium that no longer hosts an NFL team. And that's his de facto home city. So he has absolutely no qualms about bashing heads or burning bridges to get what he wants. Which is even more money, because more than $8 billion in net worth and ownership of five pro sports teams isn't enough.

Something I will tell my kids if I get father...always choose your business partners wisely or else they‘ll rob you to the underwear.

Really a disgrace what has happened at United and Arsenal past years.
