I said it last season, I wanted to see less of the formation switching and tinkering but suspected it would continue. We didn't start with our strongest team but even with the tinkering and strategy to play a more tight and defensive game, we didn't even start Torreira who would have given way more energy to win the ball back.

Too negative, some will disagree but will react and agree once we've repeated this sort of thing after a few more bad results. Emery's record against top opponents and managers will continue to look poor if he doesn't snap out of this negative approach. We should have played to our strengths.

criminaI to stick with emery when we couId have aIegri

Maybe Sir Mikel Arteta is the answer for our lack of identity. I want us to back possession football with skillful passes.

I'd take Mourinho at Arsenal, tbh.

We're the perfect club for him to create that siege mentality.

Think I am tired of this "rope a dope" play from the back especially against one of the top 3 world wide attacking line ups,

He decided to give 2 best fullback freedom of the park to protect the middle. This meant it was really easy to keep the ball for them. He chose to keep the score down and accepted defet

Yup. His contract doesn't get renewed and people can start raging at a game 2 draw versus city of the new guy.

He’s only got 9 months on his contract and there’s the debate should we sack him now and get Arteta now lol.

Emery is in his last year of his contract doubt he’ll get the third year extension anyways

OGS has a better record vs the 'big five' then Unai Emery.

Let that sink in

Think I posted earlier, but part of the reason Freddie was promoted was 1) The board were disappointed Unai didn't make use of our youth players enough and 2) Freddie was excellent with the U23s and it isn't a too distant chance he could become manager

He signed a three years contract so still 1 year and 9 months left. We do have an option to release him after the second year with compensation according to reports
