Lincoln (2012) or Frankenhooker (1990) tonight?
Think we might turn out to be mathematically safe already. That should help us play with a little more freedom.
Are we witnessing Arteta’s final form? We’re kind of dour but tactically unorthodox and extremely well-drilled.
Reluctant to compare us to a team that got a lot of success. But purely in terms of style, there are comparisons to be made with Vicente del Bosque’s Spain IMO, especially in how we take the game to the parts of the pitch we want, and let it die there.
If the bottom three stays the same and continues to drift, there may be very few. It’s a weird season all-round, and if established PL teams aren’t in any danger of relegation there won’t be sackings.
As one of those people who can’t even watch an under-fire manager giving an interview, I’m kind of here for it.
The good news is that there’s always a tipping point, and rule changes soon follow to improve the spectacle.
That’s how we got the ever-evolving offside rule, the backpass rule, tackles from behind outlawed, the list goes on.
