Goodly morning gents. For the last fifteen minutes was it the defenders booting the ball away to Chelsea or the midfielders not coming to take it? It looked like no-one wanted to have anything to do with the ball.
Everyone knows that's a lie.
How frustrated should I be about the silly points dropped early as we've shown we are able to dominate Chelsea and City?
Bonus drawing!
Yet, not one of you is reporting on it or asking about it or questioning it. Feels like "journalists" writing about WWE as if it's real.
Was this Lotte's trophy? She's won the Euros, the UWCL, Conti Cups, but the -24 League Cup was the only one she really featured in. Now she scored, wore the armband at the end, was massive and played every minute of both games.
Goodly morning. Should Arsene be available to give out all our trophies this season as he did for our Champions of the World?
Lovely stuff James!
It tells it's the two guys who've been with Arteta for five years and are team captains.
This was a bit weird. Clive with a 10-minute monologue on how we need shooting, scoring, hold-up play... but not one second of it Gyökeres needs benching. All about how Eze solves everything if only given the chance. Shouldn't all of that be on the striker?
The clamour is for Eze in his stead - who will obviously score and just for some stupid reason being held back by Arteta. It's easiest to think someone else will unleash everything.
Did Arteta's Havertz comment translate to "Thank fuck I finally have my striker"?
Is there a point after yet one more of these games we start to think of Russo as our future 10, not the 9. (Preferably with Mich as the 9 once she's fit again.)
The only point you stated was about Odegaard, not about how we play.
He's created pretty much everything we've had. Our best player alongside Saliba.
It wasn't an actual injury past November.
Have we lost a recruiting edge we possibly had post-Lisbon? If a player of Rodman's quality would be looking to make the move, why wouldn't they choose Chelsea or City?
A little disappointed there weren't any updates on the hunt for Gabriel Martinelli's killer.
The WSL season is 22 games. Maximum you can drop is 10 points. That's just the reality.
Many fans have waited for a long, long time for us to win the league.
The left side of our defence was a weakness again. That has been "the lineup" for almost all of Slegers' time. Do you think we'll see changes or just trust them to improve?
40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Is Taylor Hinds our 2nd best fullback? If so, she needs to start, right?
The whole process took 4 minutes and 27 seconds. Making it *only* 3 minutes and 15 seconds is not any better.
That's not the problem though.
The VAR looking at it: 105 seconds
The ref going to the screen: 14 seconds
Technical difficulties: 40 seconds
The ref looking at it: 58 seconds
The ref making his call: 26 seconds
Restarting the game: 24 seconds
Only if we change football into a binary sport like its American cousin. Did the ball touch a toe? We lose the penalty. Did the ball touch a hand? We gain a penalty.
If there's interpretetation, it's still four minutes instead of five even if the VAR overrules the ref.
A 5 minute stoppage may work great in the US, because it's another chance to show junk food commercials, but for football is awful.
Well I read & heard it that they have never discussed the topic at all. Which would be concerning.
What should we think of this quote from Renee? "We never talk about it internally, so in that sense, nothing has changed from last season."
Now there's no hope of competing for the title any more, should our approach change in the WSL especially re: playing time (Little, Foord, McCabe, Mead)?
