thierry never won, i don't give a fuck about that award.

Mourinho really feeling the pressure. Names a full XI in Carling Cup, while Pep name a fringe side. Mkihitaryan totally excluded again.

City giving Man U a real tonking would be hilariously funny. 🙂

Are United contractually obligated to ruin one big money signing a year?

Its truly amazing, that they go to great lengths to sign a player for a decent amount of money and a huge wage, then immediately find out he doesnt suit them or their manager. I mean, imagine us, scouting and buying like this? Totally reckless. United can afford it of course, just shows that there is a serious lack of footballing brains in that club.

United did this a lot under Ferguson too. They basically bought players they didn't want or need just to prevent them from strengthening rivalling teams, like us. It's so dirty.

It's good though, the more big names flop at Utd, the more reluctant big names
Will be moving to them in the future.

i'm more likely to laugh at the players who choose the money over actually thinking about how they are going to be integrated into the club.

zlatan holding his crotch when given a yellow card for time wasting. he's the donald trump of football lol. has a few successes but a lot bigger ego sold with similar hyperbole.

EPL Cup home draw against United anyone?

No, would rather draw a Championship side and get another look at the likes of Martinez and Maitland-Niles. Would like to finally win this one as well

Arsenal v Southampton

Not bad

See, now this is more like it

Yeah, not an easy tie but it could be worse.

Good draw, dont forget Southampton also play in the Europa League as well.

Semi Finals should be tasty if all expected teams win their respective games.

Got a funny feeling Newcsstle will knock out Liverpool at Anfield.

We need all our players back from injury so we can field a strong side. Something like this would be idel:

Back 5

Elneny - Xhaka

Iwobi/ - Ramsey - Lucas
Ox
------ Giroud

Not too fussed about what the attack looks like against Southampton but I'd give Holding and AMN another nod. They were good against Reading.

Southampton knocked us out last year, would be good to get a revenge.

I can see Liverpool and United drawing each others in the semi so if we win this we have a good chance of making the final.

Cant believe Wenger never won the league cup. Clearly doesnt give two fucks about the competition.

Question is, why are you so jacked up about the bloody league cup?

Im not really bothered about the cup, but its amazing that Wenger has never won it in his 20 years in charge.

We should had won it in 2007 and 2011. The latter being one of my worst defeats as an Arsenal fan.

Ospina must start this game. Southampton knocked us out 2 years ago with a Nathaneil Cylde belter, typical Koemann getting one over Wenger at the Emirates. On a side note, I hope we stuff Everton in the league.

2006 CL
2008 PL
2011 LC

3 huge misses for Wenger that could have given a whole new outlook to the Emirates aka the "Banter Era". 2006 and 2008 would have given us so much more income and made us more attractive as a destination for good players. Could have probably avoided falling as low as we did by 2010-11-12.

Forget about the other 2, the UCL win in 2006 would have transformed the club.

Tbf, Liverpool actually did build a really good team on their success, but then fucked it all up after Man City disrupted the old "Big 4".

also, we didn't really have much ambition on the football field then. wenger would've still gona for the rosicky, hleb, diaby, denilsons instead of the riberys.

"Ambition" = having money. We didnt have any.

This is absurd yet interesting at the same time.

The funny thing is technically the last one should have been ruled out too 😆

That's the definition of farcical right there

The referee actually explained that he allowed the last one because he gave the advantage to the attacking team since they scored 😆

It's farcical yet at the same time the ref was doing his job.
