    There was no good outcome here for anyone that listens to pundits. Either we would have had the ManU are completely fine now and will challenge to win the league, or Arteta has a special team here and he (suddenly) knows exactly what he's doing. Both debates are really annoying and far removed from reality.

    Once again Marcus Rashford comes to the aid of the wider population

    Looks like AFTV is back on the menu, boys!

    Very similar seasons so far for us two.

    Comfortable home win against Fulham.
    Comfortable home wins against midtable fodder (Southampton and Villa)
    Comfortable away win against relegation fodder (Bournemouth and forest)
    Battling home wins against bottom half mediocre teams (Wolves and Leicester)
    Two vaguely tougher away fixtures which you draw both and we get a win and a loss (Palace/United vs Chelsea/Spammers).

    Could be another fun North London fight this year.

    Wolves are currently demonstrably better than Leicester, Chelsea are miles ahead of United while comparing West Ham to Palace is laughable, even notwithstanding the intense rivalry that exists between us and them.

    So in summary, no - our seasons have not been remotely similar.

    Wrong.

    You lot have played one of last season's top 7 away.
    Spurs have played two.

    You lot, for the equivalent games played last season,
    are 3 pts better off this season.

    Spurs are EIGHT pts better off.

    I don't agree with all of your comparisons here, but I can understand why you've made them.
    Your squad's already looking more than a little light, though.
    Not enough quality players and too many crocks, in my opinion.

    The Europa League gives you an opportunity for rotation, but will Arteta take it?
    Soares, Holding and Nketiah should be fine for Zurich and you should beat Everton easily.
    October will be a massive test for both clubs.

    Nice of Leicester to promote the new Lord of the Rings series for Amazon.
    Is Brendan Rodgers a dwarf or a hobbit, though?

    I never thought he was that short but a quick google search reveals he is actually the same height as Jermain Defoe, although the comparison between the two men ends there as one is a legend and the other a total bellend.

    He has a point!
    This could be subject to retrospective action I would have thought?

    Rodgers is a very small man. I told on here a few weeks ago that I had met him and had changed my mind about him. Have to say though that one of my vivid memories of this meeting is that he was wearing some pumped up trainers to make him look taller.

    Leicester City to reveal estimated annual losses of £119.5m, the highest in the Premier League.
    Small man, big losses.
