Sicario2 There are two kinds of achievement in football: trophies and sitting in seventh place in Serie A with "better than expected" results.

6th in the table is 5th loser mate.

Incredible indeed. Club with the richest owners in Serie A and who have outspent almost everyone else in Top 4 shocker.

Big Willie Arteta has spent a billion pounds mate. If we win the league will you begrudge him as well?

I mean, we can say about the same thing for Arteta/all rich clubs. You still have to do the job and not end up like Amorim/Ten Hag/Maresca/Slot this season.

You could. But getting top 4 is being considered as something incredible by Sicario here. That's obviously not the case is we finish top 4.

I think Cesc is a good manager but not quite as good as Arteta, but if Arteta was to leave one day, he’d be a good option to replace.

Or Slot, considering Liverpool are top 4 right now.

Big Willie can’t compare Arsenal with Como. When you were growing up did you ever even hear about them as a club? Don’t let your hatred for Cesc cloud your judgement. As I said to @Burnwinter 3 years ago, Cesc is a generational manager and has the X factor many managers lack. He’s going straight to the top whether you like it or not.

Big Willie Spare a thought for us in the UK who can't view imgur images any more 😢

Sicario2 Cesc is a generational manager

Generational? Are these rabbit generations? Cesc hasn't done a thing more than the two journeymen who've just been sacked in the Premier League.

Como has outspent the whole of Italy for two seasons now, and Cesc has them in fourth place in a bog standard 4-2-3-1 with inverting everything.

Bet's still on anyway!

Unai Emery has Aston Villa sitting in 3rd right now in the best league and they're the 7th or 8th biggest spenders in the league. Do we consider Emery a generational manager? I'd be saving that sort of title for the likes of Pep, Wenger, Jose, Klopp, Fergie, etc

Sicario2

Qwiss it’s more a prediction. Like saying Dowman is a generational player. Does that mean Foden, similar skill set, who has won it all is also to be considered a generational player? No

Wait, what? Since when? I just tried using my VPN set to London and the image loads for me.

Big Willie We live under communist rule in the UK now, the government decides what we can or can't view 😉

On Reddit you need to verify your age, porn sites you need to do the same etc etc. Some sites have basically just blocked UK people like for example imgur. Probably not worth the hassle for them.

Just read up about it. That's crazy. Weird though it works with a VPN with a UK server in that case because usually they dont.

JazzG

Big Willie Dunno, my VPN when I set to UK is blocked but when I use USA it all works fine.

Talk of them even banning VPNs in the UK, starting with kids and no doubt they'll go further....
