That goal by Iwobi was really deserved for Fulham. Played better than the home side for the whole game and rightfully walk away with a win. I wonder what this Manchester United team is going to do against City now. -

Think we're going to be going into March with a good set of results behind us and now that we have Endo back Mac can start operating a lot better as well. When Robertson came on, Diaz turned into a completely different animal. Onto the next game we go. -

Diaz has to do better. He's missed some good chances. -

Chelsea are playing really well. City are getting a bit overrun in the midfield. -
The thing with Thiago is that hes always been injured for major periods over his entire career. If you look at the history its not hard to see that they still gambled on the transfer. Thiago - Injury history | Transfermarkt I think the club just waits till the summer and then moves him on. He could have done really great things had he been more fit but that's not his mode of operation and hasn't been for a while now. This is the longest hes been out in his entire career although he did have a long spell even at Bayern.

He's definitely being moved on in the summer. Bit too risky to see a player just stay injured no matter how good he can be.

Your search history must be quite the treat @Tommy

TBF to the team that went out yesterday it had a totally reshuffled front-line, a makeshift midfield, etc etc. I doubt thats the team who bcomes out to play you'll at Anfield. I also doubt we see that particular lineup anytime soon again because it clearly doesn't work.

I think once Endo is back and Dom gets over whatever it is that kept him out yesterday, we'll see less or Gravenberch and Elliot as starters which will help as the season goes on. We lacked an enforcement presence in midfield and they had Rice who was doing a lot of the dirty work with ball recovery. -
March is a very interesting month for anyone vying for top spot now. You lot play us and Arsenal in the same month. The kicker being that you have to play us at home and they don't get that advantage.

I'd like to know what was going through the players mind last night when they got out on the pitch. You could excuse a loss if they looked like they were in the game but from the first minute the passing was lazy, the defense just let them have all the wing space they want, and it wasn't till they went a goal down that they sort of woke up. And even then, it wasn't anything to trouble Arsenal. Mind you this coming off a very good run of form and I don't think you can say it was due to missing players. Even if the opposition finds a way to press you hard there was no excuse for the work rate on show. -

I think if you don't see teams letting their emotions come out after a game it does tend to be a bit weird. It's their home ground, they just beat us and while I am gutted, I don't think anyone could begrudge them celebrating any way they choose to. Arteta running up and down is just him being pleased with his team executing the plan he had in mind and it working out. They are just two points off the top now and there's a lot more football to be played so anything could happen, but it's their moment let them enjoy it. -

To get gifted a goal and then go on to crumble defensively and in the process getting red card for Konate. Wasn't our night and Arsenal took their chances well. -

Yeah that sums up the night. Terrible defensively. -

If you think Arsenal had a master blunder in the first half, phew we've just outdone them. What are those two even thinking about with that dance maneuver. -

Looking a lot more assured in ball possession now. -

Thanks Arsenal. Awful goal to concede after doing so well. -

Saka puts it in on second try. Can't say it hasnt been coming. They've been pressing rather well. -

Missing some key players today. That just means some rotation but the good news is that the bench has lots of good options if necessary. -
Sad stuff. RIP. I'll rewatch Predator today.

Its such a weird fighting game imo. They have so many variations and yet when you watch tournaments or any pros playing its almost like they drop all the variations for very few strict combinations that work right. Still, super fun game and definitely one of the better games of the last few years.

Fair point. I never thought they'd ever give it to Joe. Although giving it to Nunez is more for his confidence more than anything else. In the end it really didn't matter as we beat them but if we get an op like that against Arsenal I doubt he's getting the chance.
