Premier League Gameweek 36-37

[PoTMS]

The parallels between Ole and Arteta are clear for everyone to see. What goes through the heads of the people who run these clubs?

 

[Dobba]

I meant before he went to Spurs.

No chance, no manager is turning Dalot and Telles into footballers.

 

[SilentWitness]

Ffs. We really need to beat Palace now.

 

[FootballHQ]

Ffs. We really need to beat Palace now.

Think Arsenal have gone personally so you can get something at Emirates if you time waste to the max like at Anfield.

I'd also say you should be pretty encouraged by how Newcastle played so Burnley will struggle to beat them on final day.

 

[Suedesi]

We conceded 4 at home to these feckers.

Ah and congrats for mathematically making the CL next year.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

No chance, no manager is turning Dalot and Telles into footballers.

Would he have got a better tune out of Rashford and Sancho, though?

He's a counter attacking manager and our players are more suited to that. We saw how devastating we were under Ole.

 

[big rons sovereign]

Nah he's where he belongs. Crazy Overrated

It was just the way he was gliding around with the ball, then he plays it forward and there's a series of poor touches and tripping over own feet.

 

[MUFC OK]

No Salah or VVD tomorrow.

 

[redshaw]

Eddie Howe has done very well. Kind of expected the result the way Newcastle have picking up points.

 

[avgp_1]

I don't care which of these NL clubs make it but it be the most hilarious day if Norwich some how do that and and Arsenal still fumble the bag. Kind of like Leicester on final day last season.

Everton will get atleast a point. Arsenal are done

 

[Rightnr]

Arsenal's OGS even got a new contract. Lovely.

 

[Wilt]

Would we be in the top four if we got Conte?

Comfortably

 

[GifLord]

All Or Nothing is gonna be amazing to watch

 

[duffer]

Poor old Ben White getting pelters on Sky.

 

[padr81]

While Arsenal have wobbled have to give credit to Conte and Spurs.

7w 2d 1l in their last 10 games to get the job done since they lost to United. 23 points from 10 games, if they can manage that over a season that's 87 points.

 

[Ramshock]

The parallels between Ole and Arteta are clear for everyone to see. What goes through the heads of the people who run these clubs?

Always with the digs at Ole

 

[Ramshock]

Comfortably

You don't know that

 

[Suedesi]

Would we be in the top four if we got Conte?

100%

It was a baffling decision then and it's emphatically proven to be the wrong decision now.

[PoTMS]

Always with the digs at Ole

Why do you care? I guess I don't really need to ask when you were one of his biggest supporters when it was clear to see he was out of depth, a bit like Arteta here.

Anyway two digs in quick succession is hardly a pattern, it's literally the same situation going on at Arsenal as at United just last season. Underwhelming manager given a brand new contract for doing feck all while the majority of the braindead fans eat it up.

 

[Suedesi]

You don't know that

Let's put it this way - we'd have finished ahead of (Conte-less) Spurs and would have eaten Arsenal for breakfast

 

[Murder on Zidanes Floor]

Poor old Ben White getting pelters on Sky.

What they saying?

I will never understand why they were so scared to sack Ole after the Liverpool game.

No chance Spurs would get anyway near 87 points. After a run like that they'd "do a spurs" and win 1 of their next 10.
They are the best of a very very poor bunch below the top 3.

 

[Real Name]

You can always trust Arsenal to cheer you up.

Just because Arsenal screwed up a 9 point advantage is now making Conte look good. The football his teams play is still not what we should be aiming for here at Utd.

 

[MUFC OK]

The parallels between Ole and Arteta are clear for everyone to see. What goes through the heads of the people who run these clubs?

Ole delivered top 4, twice. He also beat city 2 or 3 times, knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup and got that famous result against PSG.

 

[duffer]

What they saying?

Ben White, was shite.

Basically not fit and his fault for the OG due to poor positioning.

 

[ayushreddevil9]

Unfortunately for Utd.

 

[PoTMS]

Getting top 4 was good but resulted in two embarrassing CL campaigns, and Arsenal actually won the FA Cup under Arteta so I'd call it even. The other achievements ultimately mean feck all.

 

[frostbite]

Would we be in the top four if we got Conte?

Definitely!

Let's hope that ETH is better than Conte. There is no proof about this yet, just a vague hope.

Yeah, United fans seem allergic to winning football these days

It’s not even. Ole’s league campaign last year would have been Arsenal’s 7th best season in PL history.

 

[Suedesi]

Definitely!

Amen, and I'll leave it at that

 

[ayushreddevil9]

He aint winning shit with that football. Maybe in Italy. Very bad record in Europe.

They are the best of a very very poor bunch below the top 3.

Of course they've had a nice run of fixtures but despite dropping a couple of clangers before this, they've beaten City twice, drawn with Liverpool twice. If they can consistently put the weaker sides to bed they'll be comfortably top 4 next season unless ETH is the second coming. Its looking like they will have less trouble with weaker teams, they've scored 3+ goals 14 times under Conte already.

While they won't maintain 87 point form, I expect them to come in well over 75 given this season has been a mess and they are likely to get 71. All provided they keep Conte of course.

 

[Suedesi]

He aint winning shit with that football

He won enough games to get them top 4

 

[ayushreddevil9]

He won enough games to get them top 4

Agreed. Short term, yes. But not for long term.

You are right. Spurs before Conte had minus 9 goal difference. They have +24 now.

 

[Woodzy]

I’m genuinely surprised Arteta lasted the season tbh, especially after that ropey start. Hopefully the same again for them next season where they fanny about over sacking him, have a purple patch causing them to forget how shit he actually is and bottle another season as a result.

 

[MUFC OK]

Oh, Ole deserved to go for sure and as for the FA cup, fair enough as he actually won something. I don’t think they mean f all but my point was more that Arteta hasn’t got a result against either that I can recall which is very poor in itself.

Arsenals aim/expectation was never to get 4th tbh, rather a top 4 finish. So maybe the ole comparisons would have flattered him slightly at the start of the season. Either way, he’s not the man to take them to where they want to be in my opinion and they’re drawing out his appointment too long. That’s probably where the comparisons are most justified.
