Genuinely feel sorry for Erik.

This - we don’t deserve him

2-0 down two defensive subs hmm

Lindelof - Captain. Biggest £#%&!ing fanny to play for us.

AWB changed the game already

Oh look they’re pretending they care for 10 mins. How cute.

A bit of intensity, at least. Which should be a prerequisite.

That aged well.

He's mint the little tyke

It’s quite amusing how little of a £#%&! martial gives. Just £#%&!s the ball anywhere. Not a shite given

This might be the worst I’ve ever seen Martial play. Has he even controlled a ball yet?

Why on earth did ten Hag not replace gloves this summer.

Utter negligence.

Martial is a real force of nature when he’s in this sort of mood.

£#%&! off, Antony.

I like Garnacho but £#%&! me he needs to get his act together.

Strong chance it’s some two ticks %@#$&!s were ratcliffe will become public PR bring in a DOF etc but the glazers still get their “tick” and possibly to veto anything they don’t like.

Rather than having one owner going in the set direction, we will end up with two owners going in opposite directions.

EVEN IF ratcliffe gets full sporting control, the gimps will still have control over the business, what happens when he demands more funds to be released and the gimps say no?

Or he demands something on sporting side but the gimps veto it because they don’t think it’s in best interest of the business. There has to be some overlap between the two and if you have one person controlling one with a vested interested in one side (ratcliffe and sporting decisions) and another side interested in the business (gimps) you will bound to get situations sometimes where they disagree

It’s going to be a shit show

That’s the spirit
