    Err, no I'm not mate.

    Arsenal are not our benchmark for success. They are further down the line than us as far as becoming genuinely competitive for league titles, but that's it.

    I don't think we swap for a couple more FA cup win ffs!

    The only delusion here is that you genuinely think Arsenal competed last season. Got nowhere near a single cup competition and still finished a distant second.

    Looks like the Ange hype train has come to an abrupt stop. Now that the ‘keep going forward’ message is wearing off he’s being found out tactically.

    He’ll be gone by Christmas.

    I would say his mask is slipping, but he was always a bad winner and an even worse loser.

    He’s leaving with no dignity.

    We’ll all be glad to see the back of him, now.

    It came to a stop in November.

    Ultimately Spurs will finish in the top 6 which is job done for Levy.

    Yeah, but, I don’t think you’ll be top 6 next season if he stays.

    Time will tell. The last few months have been worrying and he needs to adapt his tactics but ultimately finishing 5th isn’t a bad season.

    No, it’s not. The way you seem to have hit a brick wall is the problem. If you have a lead with 5-10 minutes to go he takes a forward off and puts a defender on. Inviting pressure. That’s one ridiculous tactic I’ve noticed he does. Has he intergrated many of your youth players into the squad?

    Spoke to a lad last night who works for a company that sells the cables for VAR. He said Everton don’t even have a credit account, they’ve got to pay cash only. All the other clubs get like 1.5m - 2.5m credit. They must be proper ****ed.
