“I like the area because it’s really similar to my region in France
. The people are kind, the connection is really positive. And I like the project of the club. From the start it was a key point for me and I think I can achieve the maximum because I am connected with the identity of the club and the way we are working together. This club is really well-aligned and powerful with its fans and its history, and at the same time really well-organised to achieve a strong future. This combination is really positive and I am proud to be in this project.”
Isn't that what le fee said also
 
3 points. 7 point gap. Europe still on. Hopefully the start of a beautiful weekend.

Not too much to ask for is it?
Providing Arsenal don’t do the unthinkable and blow the title this weekend I’d even settle for a draw, rare for me but I keep getting 2-2 flash before my eyes …

… a PL point is always welcome and Forest are desperate.

Forest are on a decent run. I just fancy Diarra to correct last week and get the winner. Hoping anyway. Also hoping Arsenal get their highest winning score of the season tomorrow <laugh>

Arsenal are playing a team on an entrenched losing streak and with players doing their utmost to get out of playing. They’re like school kids on gym day, bringing notes from their mams and ‘forgetting’ their kit.

Gordon has a tickly cough the medical team can’t cure and Joelinton deliberately picked up a booking that keeps him out of the next two games. He rugby tackled a player, on the halfway line, right in front of the referee, absolutely pathetic.

I’ll be a little disappointed if we don’t beat Forest but disgusted if Arsenal don’t beat Newcastle …

… they’d deserve to blow the title if they can’t beat a team in turtle disarray.
 
The current plan seems to be to let them tire themselves out being chucked about by Brobbey then let Wilson come on to try and break the line when they are tired! Suppose it could work the other way?
I like this idea, my only thought would be to make the change a little earlier, give Wilson at least 25 minutes.
Sunny start to the day in Penzance also, on the train at 7:10 this morning, excitement is building <cheers>

I agree I think most of us want a change and fresh legs earlier but to be fair RLB seems to get a lot of things right.
