@Jen_ALH Thanks! 5:15 PM Feb 24th via web in reply to Jen_ALH
@CWDailyGooner Throughout but had a massive backlog at the end thanks to laziness! 5:13 PM Feb 24th via web in reply to CWDComps
@ArsenalColumn Agreed. However I do think that bringing in that one top creator would solve a lot of the defensive + offensive issues 4:16 PM Feb 18th via web in reply to ArsenalColumn
@BeltransMole23 Pray tell... 3:03 PM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@BeltransMole23 I think that was the right decision tbh, you can't play majority of match away at Sunderland without ball-winner in midfield 11:55 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@ManUtd24 Gervinho's a terrible finisher, he could make a good channel-running CF but can't trust him one-on-one, let alone with CBs around 11:54 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@ManUtd24 Yeah that's quite evident, but that's even more a reason for RVP to stay at CF, and extra creator to be subbed on behind him (AA) 11:53 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@BeltransMole23 ...Benayoun on the right for either AOC/Gerv to add bit more to passing game and provide poaching threat. 11:47 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@BeltransMole23 Yeah definitely. Considering team was losing 0-1 at half time, I would've liked to see Arshavin come on for Ramsey, then... 11:46 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@ManUtd24 ...decisions himself and got them wrong (quite blatantly in the case of Walcott --> CF sub). 11:42 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@ManUtd24 ...slowed down the play like he normally does. Walcott struggled against a deep defence like he normally does. Wenger made those.. 11:41 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@ManUtd24 So, I don't think players should take blame today. None of these players played any different to how they normally play. Ramsey... 11:41 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@ManUtd24 Whether a team improves/gets worse doesn't really matter, it's fact that choice of manager is having discernible effect on results 11:38 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
@DaRealGunner I like the thought of the extra mobility Coquelin would bring, but still would be dependant on bringing in a top no.10 IMO 11:36 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to DaRealGunner
@BeltransMole23 ...and maybe not bringing on extra pace when the opposition sits back to protect a lead, like today. 11:34 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@BeltransMole23 ...off pacey forwards when opposition pushes up to chase game (e.g. Fulham) 11:34 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@BeltransMole23 I actually don't want him to experiment, I just want him to follow the standard coaching manual! Things like not subbing... 11:32 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to BeltransMole23
@ChiefScoutTM Perhaps he could employ @Zonal_Marking as his new no.2? 11:31 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ChiefScoutTM
@ManUtd24 ...teams improve so drastically following appntmnt of new manager, with exactly same personnel? (Sunderland being good e.g.) 11:29 AM Feb 18th via web in reply to ManUtd24
