Could see this brighton drop off from a mile away, chelsea gutting their ENTIRE scouting department + a shitton of their coaches is really starting to show

Great article

totnum on a 3 game loss streak & they have city, west ham and newcastle as their next 3. Its beautiful

Yea rice is way better off the ball but he doesnt have partey’s ability to link up the defence to the attack

no var?

chelsea & man city being relegated would cure my depression

I dont know what botched translation you heard but when he was talking about saliba not playing many games & mentality shift from arsenal to france he was making excuses for him. He was defending saliba from the ongoing journalist narrative that he wasn’t performing well enough for france.

Deschamps LOVES saliba, I cannot stress that enough

I think the not being able to concentrate for 90 minutes thing is a problem precisely because we play posession based football, Arteta wants him to be a real sweeper keeper and change his positioning depending on which areas of the pitch we have the ball, which requires constant attention from ramsdale. Arteta also spoke about how he was really happy with Raya playing it short & out of the press after the city game, wheras ramsdale loooves to go long, so that’s probably part of the problem too.

Completely agree that all the press/podcast stuff ramsdale loves to do has done him zero favours too.

England checked Saka because we lied to them and told them he was fit to play right up until the man city game, to make sure no leaks came from their side. Brazil wanting to check jesus is weird.

3 points, spurs & newcastle mudded, great day for football
