In response to his statement, Sporting’s director of communications Nuno Saraiva has said: “David Sullivan lies.

“At Sporting, as has already been said by our president, no proposal has been made for the player William Carvalho.

“The football industry is not the set of an adult film in which all obscenities are allowed.

“So the boss of a club demands a lot more than this intellectual pornography.

“Mr David Sullivan has a duty to prove what he says. That is why Sporting challenges him to publicly show the proposals he claims to have made as well as the evidence that Sporting received them.

Even under "financial constraints" Arsenal still outspent 80% of the league every year so boo hoo.

What team of French teenagers are we on about, anyway? It's his obsession with English youth that has tarnished his legacy.

Spurs are hosed it'll be 3 years before they even begin to recapture their old home form. They'll be a bottom half club within 2.

Alfie Mawson getting kicked in the face probably should have been a red too but he's a good honest lad who didn't go down and looked the same before as after.

The West Ham one is with the laces and he's not flying through the air so it's good technique.

Ritchie was convinced he was going off before the yellow came out.

His eyes were also on the ball the entire time. 9/10 the keepers never run out that quickly to the ball or that far out of the area. Im not arguing the fact that it wasn't a bad challenge but it was completely accidental.

He's a terrible winger. Everyone knew this when he was at Arsenal, except Wenger. Even the player himself knew it and kept asking to play in a different position and eventually left just so he wouldn't play there anymore. And now he's at a new club and for his first start Klopp plays him on the wing.

Idgi. It's like managers just cannot accept that a guy who is quick is bad at being a winger.

He's safer out on the touchline where he doesn't have to pass or shoot so much.

sacking people quickly worked really good last season, keep going for it imo

He's the most negative manager I've seen at this club. Has no idea what he's doing to set the team up to go forward. Good on him for fixing Bradley's mess but he's gone way too far with it.

Him, Makelele and Nigel Gibbs all went mental when Mesa gave the ball away leading to Watford's winner yesterday, and there were a lot of "I told you so's" thrown around apparently. But he made such a difference in actually getting the ball through midfield compared to Clucas who just hides from it and forces the centrebacks to knock it long. Plus Mawson hosed up an easy tackle to stop the attack. Ginger donkey believes his own hype, almost every Watford chance came from one of his gently caress ups.

We'll go five at the back with Clucas anchoring the midfield against loving West Ham and Huddersfield.


If we'd stuck with Guidolin things would be better.

Guidolin was a good manager compared to what you've had after

He was great. Told the sports science undergrads to gently caress off with their advice, sat in his car smoking during rainy training sessions, and when his plans didn't work he'd come with something different in the next game.

Let down by a board that buys badly and wanted an American poster boy in charge.

Given how Jenkins went about sacking him it'd take one hell of a bouquet.
