Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man

It's a shame that Stuart Webber didn't join the club a few years earlier.

I'm normally one to steadfastly defend officials, but this is ridiculous. Such incidents happen regularly in games, but a retrospective red card is very rare, and is usually only given for blatant and/or serious offences. This was neither, and I'm struggling to understand it.

With their philosophy of playing four centre-backs in defence and relying heavily on bullying the opposition at set pieces, aren't Arsenal just a mini-Stoke from the Pulis era?

Burnley would've fallen off the bottom had he played all 38.

Yeah, it's now coming out that it was a single-car accident on a very wet and slippery road in high winds, and judging by the damage, serious speed was involved. Now that we know he's not too bad, I don't have as much sympathy for him as I did yesterday.

Spending £8m on Tzolis wasn't great business, but sabotaging yourselves by wasting £10m on the worst goalkeeper in the division last season and then playing him every week truly is batshlt.

These things write themselves in all honesty. "Who kept Delia and Michael rich? Who keeps Kenny on the pitch? We do... We do... Who runs Onel's social feeds? Who makes George Long throw away leads? We do... We do... Who keeps Sargent bedridden? Who keeps Jack Wilshere hidden? We do... We do... Who tells Duffy to drive when plssed? Who controls Borja's red mist? We do... We do... Who keeps Sorenson at walking pace? Who made Gordon vanish without trace? We do... We do... Who makes Gibbs' hamstrings tight? Who keeps Essex talking shlte? We do... We doooooo....

No. Yesterday was only his third yellow card of the season. McLean, Doyle and Nuñez are all on four I believe, but the amnesty kicks in after yesterday's game so they now need to reach ten to get a ban.

Easy mistake to make. I often think it was Will who came onto the pitch at half time against Man City after a few sherries, and Delia was the Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Who kept Delia and Michael rich? Who keeps Kenny on the pitch?

You mean like the Stonecutters in The Simpsons? Huge if true.

Another concern when coaches are too honest in public is that players don't like it. That's why most coaches tend to make up a lot of excuses and rarely criticise players in the media. You can get away with it if you're a big coach with a big reputation or things are generally going well, but Thorup is taking a risk by being so honest. Hopefully the dressing room like and respect him enough for them to not get too upset by it.

Exactly. Nobody would've known what was true and what wasn't. At least this way we know what the actual situation is. More-or-less, anyway.

I'm not sure what the criteria is, but I believe the vast majority of crosses are unsuccessful, according to the stats.

I doubt they had a choice. If they didn't post it, the news would've been broken by other sources, which may not have been verified or accurate. At least this way they're in control of the narrative and the information released is true.
