Nowt wrong with having a few beers and a laugh about it though. Jurgen’s teeth would turn inside out.
All joking aside the worse thing you could do is sign a load of old players who have gone to retire on stupid money in Saudi. Absolute zero motivation for them to put in a shift. Eddie Howe be telling longstaff and Burn they need to do the running of 5 players while the Saudi lads just stand around waiting for the ball.
Think it’s just bollocks to be honest. The amount of tip toeing the owners have done so far, to then backtrack and look this ridiculous would be completely counter productive. It’s just going to follow the City route. Stability for now, then bigger spending, then bigger expectations and subsequently bigger names and infrastructure. There’s talk now of making current SJP 60k modern bowl stadium and most architects think it’s possible.
Growth takes time I wouldn't be in any doubt whatsoever where this will lead to and it's a footballing super power. If there's anyone still out there telling themselves anything other than that it's either because they are an idiot or it's mental gymnastics to avoid acknowledging something they don't like.
I tell you I've NEVER seen tears like the Gunners about Saturday. The thing is, if ONE of them said "yeah, Havertz was a red" then I'd pay attention, but they all just seem to ignore it!! Havertz - red. Bruno - he goes to barge Jorginho, but Jorginho dips his head and he catches him there instead. Goal - ball's not conclusively out, Joelinton doesn't conclusively shove Gabriel, Gordon isn't conclusively offside. Therefore it MUST be a goal. If Arsenal had laid a glove I'd get it, but teams have been properly robbed by VAR - Arsenal aren't one of them. The comments from Arteta and the statement from Arsenal FC are absolutely embarrassing. They were second best, regardless of possession, it's pathetic.
