If we don't beat either Sp**s or Utd it will be a very bad sign.
We need to strengthen in January, mate. Or we are fookedWe're not ticking the way we need to be. We've been so poor in the first half of so many games this season, managed to overcome lesser opposition in the second half through individual brilliance or opposition tiring.
I think the best is yet to come from Emery, this summer transfer window will be big for him. I'd encourage people not to get disheartened when we inevitably go on a bad run.

"Need" but wouldn't bet on it. Would be delighted with four points.We need to beat both.
What the hell man. You didn't vote for us to lose. You're the real reason we didn't win. LolWe made some of the right signings, but everyone and their mother knew we need a winger (at least one), we needed a new long-term LB and that Xhaka had two years of being extremely error prone. Our left-side was diabolical today, we had not penetrative dribbling from wide areas and Kolasinac was offering nothing from his overlaps. If we had genuine ambition of guaranteeing to get back in the top 4 we'd have addressed our issues. Wolves showed more ambition than we did because they were a promoted side, instead of just worrying about finishing 17th they've spent a lot of money to try and turn themselves into a top 10 side and progress from there. Wolves are moving faster and improving faster than we are and are showing more ambition than we are. In a couple of years times there's a genuine possibility they could be close to us unless we properly get our finger out. They've got two CM's better than one of our starting CM's.
Chelsea, Liverpool and United are not gonna wait for us to get better, they're all gonna continuously get better over the next few years. We're lucky that United have had a shambolic start to the season, because if they hadn't top 4 would be absolutely impossible for us this season. I don't think we're gonna make it regardless though. And next summer we're gonna be in a catching up position yet again where we'll be needing to spend 150-200 million if we're genuinely serious and don't believe we'll do it. You can't stay still here, you'll be left far behind. We've got so many problems in our squad witch we've failed to address or just got very temporary solutions too.
You forget so quickly. Does Reed have a memory just like the logic you mentioned earlier?Please don't mention me for no reason.
Too late for this and I'm too drunk, piss off.You forget so quickly. Does Reed have a memory just like the logic you mentioned earlier?

Didn’t watch the game, heard we were pretty bad. Hate to say it but it does sort of back up what the stats people have been saying, that our results are due a downturn unless we improve our performances.
Mid-table dross? I thought it was our big players who didn't make the dfference they should have yesterday.We've still got some mid table players in the starting lineup that we need to get rid of. Our best hope this season is that our attack carries us to our goals of top 4 and maybe a cup trophy. In the meantime we will be constantly dragged down by midtable dross like Xhaka, Mustafi and Ramsey. Good thing is, we don't need world class signings to replace them. We just need some good scouting for value, a couple 15m players should do the trick
Yes. Been saying it all season. We started yesterday with a number of players who'd played on Thursday and it's no coincidence our energy levels seem to have dropped (Liverpool game was an exception but it was a different type of game) over the past three weeks or so..Does anyone think that we were affected by our midweek fixtures, because both Chelsea and Arsenal suffered. Playing on Thursday does play havoc with your recovery time. Wenger's philosophy of playing the youth is the only way of coming out of EL fixtures unscathed.
