Re: Football Season 2014/15
RMs record vs AM this season...
P6 W0 D2 L4 unless they meet in the CL that is it. Diego Simeone has that club fighting!!! On Arsenal. Wenger is obsessed with the square peg round hole game plan. There are games in which it will work and games it wont! Even at 0-1 up and Spurs fans silenced the system proved to be flawed! |

I think the game as Manchester City showed aside to Arsenal that we haven't seen and it was pretty pleasing. It's because of that I am less concerned about losing against Spurs. Spurs played very well and they were at home. You're going to lose games of football. We've been on a great run and it's a bit churlish to stick the boot in the moment we lose one game to a side that deserved the win. You've been saying for years that Wenger won't adapt, he does, and then you accuse him of 'square pegs in round holes'. What tactic did you have in mind for the Spurs game? If Arsenal played an attacking, possession based, game and lost then wouldn't that have been evidence that Wenger doesn't change his tactics? |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
My mum was saying it's time for someone younger to have a go. Trouble is, the only one that would probably do any good with the Arsenal squad is Mourinho in my opinion. Cannot think of any manager who would be able to produce instant results. Who would you like to see take over thenry?
|
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Diego Simeone. Although I still believe Wenger could win the league again if changes were made. The squad isn't far off winning it so I'm not talking wholesale transfer changes in the slightest. If the team was utilised correctly it could at the very least mount a challenge.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
I don't think there was much wrong tactically for Arsenal against Spurs. What was lacking from Arsenal was quality in possession, which is unusual for them, but happens. Dropping Walcott and with it taking a lot of pace out of the side was probably also a mistake, but given Welbeck's workrate I can understand it.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Anyone hear van gaal's meltdown, reminded me of rafa and his facts, wonder if the pressure is telling or he is trying to deflect attention from yet another poor performance
|
Re: Football Season 2014/15
It was hardly a meltdown lol
I don't understand what the fuss is about the whole long ball thing. Playing a few long balls for the last 10 minutes of a game away from home that you're losing when you have players like Fellaini in the team, is it that surprising? Also, it worked so whats the problem? The team are playing badly at the moment, changing their tactics to scrape results doesn't bother me. |

Said it about Leicester on Sunday when it was falsely claimed he'd been sacked, but February is far too late to change a manager. With only 13/14 games left to clinch survival it will be a tall order for someone to come in this late and take them to safety.
Personally speaking, surprised Villa haven't been relegated before now. |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
The difference between reality and the dream is goals.
Utter domination again and no scorers. |
Re: Football Season 2014/15

That was without doubt the worst United have played all season, complete and utter rubbish from start to finish.:( If Burnley had scored from the two or three mad goalmouth scrambles it would have been well deserved. |

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Looking at the fixtures and there is a useful fact for Arsenal which is they have +1 home game, 7 in total left to play in the league vs rivals chasing a top 4 finish whom have 6. It could prove to be vital.
https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...02/1.jpg:large https://twitter.com/MUFC_today/statu...59799277723649 having said that remaining comps clubs chasing a top 4 finish are in... Man Utd - PL and FA Cup Southampton - PL Arsenal - PL, CL and FA Cup Tottenham - PL and EL Liverpool - PL, EL and FA Cup Southampton do look in a good position with week long preparations. I reckon they could do it. I question Man Utd and Arsenal if they progress in the CL although progression in the CL could fire them up even more. Tottenham and Liverpool will no doubt apply pressure. |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Man Utd and Arsenal will get those remaining CL spots bud.
|
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Well after the rubbish I watched at Old Trafford on Wednesday I thought I would pop down to Boundary Park. The Latics have been playing well recently. They have dropped the entrance fee to £5 and have their best crowd by far this season and they are playing utter tripe against a bottom four team. I may not make it to full time. :( At least the pie's are much better than United's, last season they had Hollands which are good but the Peters pies this season are poor.

Re: Football Season 2014/15

|
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Normal service resumed!
I can't be too upset at going out of a competition we were realistically never going to win, but I am a little disappointed with the performance. Yet to be thoroughly convinced by Pardew. |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Torn about tomorrow, as on the one hand if Arsenal win they have a great chance of winning silverware. But staying in the cup means they have more games to play so no chance of a title challenge and maybe even a lack of Top 4 finish.
But then if they lose they have more time to focus on the league. |

I was certain he had booked him for diving! Again we switch to a formation with 2 wide players instead of playing narrow in midfield, it totally changed the game and we started creating chances. I feel sorry for Falcao, hes getting no service at all at the moment. |

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Statistically United are doing fine, agreed. But the fact remains that they are playing deep and have little pace in the side. If results are all that matters then it doesn't matter how well Falcao is doing because United are in good form results wise.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Pleased at Swansea getting a result but I can't see LVG being the right man for United. OK he's better than Moyes but his brand of slow, hoof-it-up-to-Fellaini football does not suit United. I'm not at the "LVG out" stage yet but if United don't get top-4 this season then he'll have to pull a rabbit out of a hat to keep the fans on his side.
People talk about one defeat in 19 games but most of that was due to misfiring opposition and luck rather than good performances. LVG reckoned this morning that United were the best team in the league - I've been a fan since 1985 and even though he's brought some top quality players in I can only ignore complete delusion for so long. Put United against a full-strength Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and only De Gea would be able to prevent a complete bloodbath. |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Yes if MU don't get top 4 then the pressure is going to grow considerably on LVG unless he wins the FA Cup.
|
Re: Football Season 2014/15
Just this minute got home from a trade conference in Coventry so only just seen the score.
I have yet to see a full 90 minutes of decent football at OT this season and top four will be pushing it the way they are performing. Plus my daughter had our very first grandchild on Tuesday so have had other things to think about. ;) |
Re: Football Season 2014/15
