    If we spend £350m we'll hopefully have a shot too

    <laugh> Desperate times HIAG

    I asked you how many goals you'd crush them by and you said a draw would be a 'crushing'

    You've done a full 180 deg wum **** up and owned yourself :)

    Are you going to answer the question: do you believe Wenger is good enough to win the league?

    Utd were ****ing woeful today and if Louis hadn't made such a consistent **** up this season, I'd swear he was toking on a fat one at HT.

    I mean bringing Ashley Young on as a CF, when he's never played there before ?! <laugh> **** me the man is off his head.

  9. I said we'd crush them, even if we won by only 1 goal, the obvious point (that you appear to have missed) being that you can crush a team even without winning. As it happened, we crushed United and scored 3 goals. We should have had far more. They, in contrast, has no shots on target.

    Even if only one of our goals had gone in, we would have crushed them, on that performance.

    You tried to wum, but suggesting that we wouldn't crush United, and you fcuk-up massively.

    Run away from that fact, if you like, Pixie, but it is going to haunt you whether you like it or not. Sorry, but you do walk into these things like a fcukwit.

    <laugh> Calm down Biggins, your make-up will start running if you get too hot under the collar

    You hilariously said that a draw would be a 'crushing'. You only said that because your wum **** up about crushing Arsenal came back to haunt you as it was 2-2.

    No, he played there a few times for Watford about a decade ago! <laugh>

  14. Nice try, Chuckles!

    By the way, I notice that you're carefully avoiding your own board. No doubt for fear of being forced into another humiliating turn-about-face over Wenger.

    <laugh> Oh Biggins, no matter how hard you try, you always end up 'owning' yourself. I'm not avoiding my own board at all, and you made a howler trying to claim that a draw was a 'crushing' because you knew you ****ed up when we drew 2-2 after you saying you would 'crush' us :)

    I think that he played about 4 players in their best position today and one of them was De Gea.
    Martial? Striker playing as a winger. Young? Winger playing as a striker.
    Lingard? Winger playing as an attacking midfielder. Mata? Attacking midfielder playing as a winger.
    Rojo and the excellent Fosu-Mensah? Centre-backs playing as fullbacks.

    No creativity at all and I think that it's easy to see why.

    What the hell was that all about ? The blindingly obvious one was Martial on the wing and Young in the middle. But as you say, right through the whole team he had players out of position. I really can't fathom LVG and it's no wonder his players look like they don't know what they are doing. That dressing room must be a really tough place to be at the moment, because they have talented players who must feel like they are being stifled in LVG's team.

    The starting defence and the two deeper midfielders were pretty effective, to be fair to him.
    Did a lot of good closing down, worked hard, tackled aggressively and stifled our game, til Fosu-Mensah had to go off.
    Then Darmian came on and they spectacularly collapsed in about 8 minutes! <laugh>

    The whole attack made no sense at all, though.
    Lots of players that weren't just out of position, but were all playing in each other's positions.
    You could've made them far more comfortable and effective just by switching them all around. Weird.

    That's the issue ! It wasn't like he had loads of injuries and was forced to bring players in who weren't in their natural positions. It was the fact that he had the players on the pitch, but elected to play them in each other's positions. Crazy, and it makes me wonder if he does actually have a smoke before a game <laugh>
