The damned arsenal
Before anyone accuses me of reflex reflex, Unai Emery is neither a quack nor a fraudster. If you badyze his career in football, I think it's hard to deny that his progress was that of a very good manager. However, in simple terms, it does not do a very good job for Arsenal. Let me develop …
With the exception of giving opportunities to young players, he seems determined to use an approach that is contrary to that used by Arsene Wenger. This led to two major problems.
First of all, I am very much in favor of flexibility in tactics and training, but Unai Emery seems to be far too excessive in this area. Each game seems to start with different training and tactics, and each game seems to have at least one tactical / formation change during the game, often more. Tailor your approach to counter opposition forces or expose the weaknesses of the opposition is not a bad thing, but doing so excessively can also adversely affect the continuity and fluidity of our own game, and that seems to be the case. This may be better highlighted during the away match against Brighton where Alex Iwobi could clearly be seen asking Granit Xhaka "what training are we playing?" After his introduction at halftime. I mean, what is the real f ** k? This should not be seen on a Sunday morning field!
Secondly, and I think this could be a hangover from his PSG mandate, but he is clearly determined to badert his authority within the team and to show that no player, regardless of his status, will be book. This resulted in the marginalization of Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil, two of our most talented forwards. We look like a team that lacks creativity.
Is it the equivalent of Brian Clough at Leeds Utd trying to change too fast? He seems to favor obedience and hard work in relation to individuality and talent. I saw the unbeaten long run, where we were often flattered and deceived and defeated through a combination of nice matches, complicated finishes from our opponents, clinical finishes from our own players and a great deal. good luck.
I'm not going to start claiming his head for now, but I also think the media's saying that he's doing a good job and that has inherited a complete mess from Arsene Wenger is very far from the target. Yes, I accept it after Arsene Wenger, but he just does not do it very well and much of it is due to his own mistakes.
Naz, Gooner.
M.A.G.A.
Arsenal's Fandom Cult is really a stupid show of laughter by the minute. They are the football equivalent of the idiotic MAGA crowd, and even come fully equipped with uninformed blusters and silly red and white hats. Their misinformation on Fake News is a marvel, several examples:
"Emery is at fault, he should do better against Citeh, Palace did not win there"
It's funny that. When Wenger failed year after year, Wbag failed, we heard that you can not compete with oil money. Oh wait – after six months and no investment, you can suddenly? Who knew!
Chelski has 2 world clbad players: Kante and Hazard
ManYoo has one, a good day 2: DDG and Pogba
Citeh make your choice: Aguero, KDB, Sane, Silva, Bernardo, Laporte, Sterling
The Spurs have two: Kane and Eriksen
Liverpool has two: VVD and Salah
Arsenal? Zero. No. And here's the fun part: Emery came to a club with a payroll higher than the Spurs and Liverpool, and super close to Chelski's! Now, tell me, what is the incompetent jester who stuffed Arsenal's payroll with such slag (Jenkinson for £ 60,000 per person?) Over a 10-year period, making it impossible to get rid of it ?
"He has Ozil and Ramsey on the bench and left them there. Unbelievable!"
Yes, it's as if Messi and Bergkamp were seated instead of bringing them. It would be the same Ozil who never scored or scored a goal in one of the big four of his time in England. The same Ozil who still had 12 months of contract and had only one offer Fenerbache plants (currently at the mid-table in Turkey). The same Ozil who has had more broken nails and traumatic manicures leading to injuries than any player in the last decade. It makes Darren Anderton look like MT Or at the same Ramsey who, you guessed it, did not score or score any of the 4 big players for over 5 years, and the same duo who was used to the first team last season with Arsenal. 38 points behind Citeh.
"I do not see any improvement."
Last season, Arsenal finished 38 points behind Citeh and is out of the top 4 after spending a small fortune. The incompetent loser of a manager who drove them there spent more than £ 375m in five seasons on the transfer market – only Manchester clubs had spent more! Still, Emery still has an almost decent chance to rank in the top 4 this season (Arsenal fans will remember the trophy of the top 4, is not it? It was once bigger than X Factor and Eurovision combined! You win the right to get screwed up 10-2 by Bayern)
"The work is too big for him"
This one is maybe my favorite! Work at Arsenal is a "big job"? It's funny that. I remember this "demanding club" where a coach lost 8-2 at Old Trafford, 10-2 at Bayern, 5-1 at Anfield then 6-3 at Citeh, then 6-0 at Stamford Bridge and then 3- 0 to Everton … and got a new contract! I also do not remember any PL title challenges in 14 seasons, and never have any complaints of discontent. Yes, I can imagine clubs like Madrid, Barca and Juve being cool with this LOL. Unai Emery has won more European titles in one season in Sevilla than Arsenal (aka Wenger) has managed to win in 20 years. To go further, Emery has more European trophies than Arsenal FC in all its history! Thus, a group of fans who were cool with a failure specialist who spent 14 seasons posting it, and who had no chance in Europe, suddenly declared to a man holding more European trophies than his club that "the job is too big for the competition". "Hahahaha." "Good one!" Does anyone want to tell Denzel Washington that Butlin's summer play exceeds his know-how?
The problem with Unai is perhaps that he's not right to deceive the sheep – he spent more time talking about "financial doping", talking about "vertiginous wages in the "While earning an annual salary of 8.5 million pounds, he constantly spoke of" injuries "(for major trash like Diaby, Denilson or Senderos) or accused the referee of losing a match. -2 (that's what happened), which would make it easier for him. But Emery badumes his personal responsibility and I can see how much he cares for Wenger MAGA's crowd.
Emery has my support for some. It is clear that he has a vision of what he wants to do, but you can not make a chocolate fondant with feces. It may sound similar, but the results are nauseating. Give him better players and it's clear that he will challenge – unless we now pretend that Klopp and Pep have had some amazing first seasons (and that Pep had Aguero, Silva, Sterling, Fernandinho and Kompany)

Sky falling in
I just read John Nicholson's article on the unpopularity of football on Sky. I have always wondered why Sky never imposed the Sports package at no extra cost or with a minimal fee, and flooded the market with its services, which allowed them to charge higher fees for advertising.
Surely (do not call me Shirley), the best commercial plan would be to have the largest possible number of eyes on Sky Broadcasting and even increase the price of the drug from there. instead of offering a product that is not suitable for 90% of the population. population.

… I liked The first article by Johnny Nic on football viewers. I thought the FA should take the NFL route with its redzone channel.
Unless 2 games are moved to Sunday for additional coverage, simply display all games at 3 pm behind the red button. It eliminates …
1. The fans being trained with the trip
2. Non-football lovers become widows of football all weekend long.
3. Managers complain about fixing collusion
4. I was anxiously waiting to see how bad I was at fantastic football this weekend
5. Football Saturday (sorry, it's just the experts, rather than football now)
And that could potentially improve …
1. Presence to games due to easier days to plan
2. Local pubs, etc. … could benefit by showing only the team or teams from their hometown, this is an opportunity to bring communities together a bit more.
3. Easier ability to move League / FA Cup games mid-week to reduce the size of matches.
4. Players are not so tired. These guys are machines that require the least possible interruption of their schedule.
Probably a lot more pro and con, but it's a good start.

…Johnny Nic asks "what is the f ** k really happening? in reference to mbadive television contracts paid by BT and Sky. I have spoken very little about it, but something tells me that the contracts are not as illogical as he thinks, perhaps for the following reasons:
1 – These figures are likely BARB data. They look pretty much like the numbers I saw reported and discussed on the issue. They are quite inadequate for such an argument because they do not take into account (I'm led to believe) several people watching on the same set, people looking in ads, people watching something other than television (by example, iPad, phone, etc. etc.), and people coming and going on a show. They are designed for programs like Eastenders, and not for football, which is a fundamentally different type of programming. This means that the "real" numbers could be 4 or 5 times higher than those reported here. Others will know the details better than me, but if you want to write an badytical article like this, you probably need transparency on the data. Forgive me if you have taken it into account, but it would be good for this question to be dealt with in the second part, because it is interesting.
2 – Sport is a "Trojan horse" for the other products of these suppliers. So, for example, if Sky allows you to get through the cover thanks to his football coverage, it is then relatively easy for him to convert you to television, wifi, phone, etc., which are all related products. extreme inertia and will last a lifetime. worth of thousands. Same thing for BT. That's why their value is much higher than Facebook, for example, who can not sell more. You can not calculate their value on a per game basis.
3 – Income, needless to say, also comes from advertising, not just people who pay to watch. I do not know the sharing of proportions, but I predict that advertising is higher than subscription fees. In addition, the football audience is a very "demographic" audience that is more valuable to advertisers. For example, if you were on Bet365, would you prefer to advertise 100 football fans or 10,000 spectators on Coronation Street? It is clear that one audience is much less wasteful than another. So it's a premium spot.
It would be nice to see some of the above being solved before destroying the whole system.

… Let's be honest, the likelihood of Premier League football going back to the old free channels, like the BBC and ITV, is also likely that a Mourniho team will play attractive football.
But there is a model in the current world of media that works.
If Facebook bid for rights around the world, it would generate enough advertising revenue to present them free of charge to fans.
If Facebook bid for rights around the world, it would generate enough advertising revenue to present them free of charge to fans.
We are in Belfast, but we are buying advertising space on Facebook in territories as diverse as Australia, the United States, Spain, Germany, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. Our client would like to place targeted ads alongside Premier League matches because their product is primarily aimed at a male audience. These ads can be micro targeted to cities or neighborhoods. Local businesses could use the games to attract an audience to a postal code or region around the world, with the exception of China and a few others.
This would allow FB to generate revenue from literally thousands of advertisers, and a single match could bring them well beyond the £ 10 million quoted.
And it would be free to watch TV, computer or phone.
Accomplished job.

Ole perspective
Shit, people need to recover from themselves on Ole
The bar does not stop climbing for the guy
First, it was "Oh, it was a good start, but he did not meet anyone good" before Spurs.
last week on this site, he was the first loser for his first draw although he was not among the winners and losers
Then there is Paul Ince who personally lacks the necessary temperament or tactics, as he claims, "did exactly what Ole did … how will he handle a loss" and now, somehow 39, a think that a 77-year-old man who should rest is apparently undergoing training (of which he was not even responsible when he was manager) and giving the players the teamtalks and that was probably disguised at PSG Lyon match yesterday
Look, I'll repeat it for your slowness. Ole is not the messiah, he will eventually lose a match, even if he gets the job permanently, he will not win the quad. Nobody on the list of potential managers will do anything, what he has done so far though is just amazing and I like it so much, so let yourself go …

Too many questions?
Since there were not many emails in this morning's mailbox and no match in Liverpool, I hope I will not be too late for the evening because I really need the help of the mailbox.
Return to the Liverpool vs Leicester match last week and Mane on goal. Our experts and collaborators here suggested that Maguire (head of slab to his friends) should have been evicted. The argument was that even though Mane was moving away from the goal, he could have been ahead of both defenders and heading towards the goal, which meant it was a chance to score. Hence a red card for Maguire.
My question is: should the attributes of a player be taken into account in such a situation? Say for example it was Glenn Murray, could people who thought it was a red could change their minds? Murray was not as fast and probably did not create the same opportunity to score as Mane.
Robbie Savage said, "Johnny Evans did not catch Mane, no luck. So it's a red. Is the red decided solely according to the rhythm of each player? Is the referee supposed to know who would beat who in a run? And if it was a European match and a foreign referee? Would Martin Atkinson be expected to know the pace of an attacker from Besiktas and the center of Fenerbahçe in a group match of the Champions League?
I'm a fan of Liverpool but I thought a yellow was the right decision. I would like to know the opinion of the mailbox.

Sing the blues
In regards to Email from Shane As for the songs directed against Liverpool at the games of the city, we do not sing only for us.
Last year, we sang "Missing the gap". with Man United. We are still talking about the latest exploits of Argentina in 2012 and we are referring to a disappointment card in 2014. The common point here is that each song deals with our competition, consider it as such. We take seriously the challenge that Liverpool is launching this year.
The song also refers to the success of Citys last year (double Cup League and League). It is not a complete revelation of Liverpool's fortune, but a celebration of our own.
I remember that Liverpool fans had a song about their hatred of Nottingham Forest, Everton and United (all in a creative song) and several songs about Chelsea over the past decade.
I think every club has songs about its rivals, I think this is just another exciting rivalry. If Liverpool were to win the championship this year, I'm sure there would be a verse on City in his new anthem.

Incey Whincey
I know there is already a general agreement Paul Ince is a pleb, but his repeated comments about UTD's work really messed up my skin. He could have done what OGS did to UTD … oh you like it. I could have gone out with Natalie Portman … honestly, I could … if only I had followed my dream of becoming an actor, lost two stones, had my teeth, moved to Hollywood … that could have happened. Honestly, it's possible, I just did not have all the breaks that I clearly deserve. Ince belongs to history with other GFPs and their clichés, xenophobic, monosyllabic views. Paul dude, you can not even replace Danny Murphy on a Sunday night without making you look like a tool. Only God knows what the BBC was thinking about increasing its time on the screen, embarrbading on all sides.
David Moore (Miss Portman reads randomly … I'm always willing to give a relationship a chance).
… I was delighted to see Mediawatch in the badault on Paul Ince's chinstrapafter his last episode of verbal diarrhea – the man is a moron and deserves to be highlighted as such. Nor do we forget that Ince is the guy who verbally and verbally abused a match official in the Bloomfield Road Tunnel in 2013, so he's quite the good guy to create a positive atmosphere in a club.
Cards on the table: I'm a little fan of Steve Bruce. In fact, I met him once during his tenure at Wigan Athletic, when he hosted a day of training for the football team in year 11 of the year. In which school I worked. He led a proper training session with Paul Scharner, then spent years talking to them about football and answering their question. He is really an adorable guy. Over the years, he has also held some decent positions as a manager, but he is not the type to do it. He is not one to be considered as director of the club of the six best clubs.
I have to admit that the fact that Solskjaer continually claims that he's doing nothing more than making the guys feel like drummers in the world is a little worrying. I'm sure there is much more to do than that, and I understand that he's probably humble, but he's still doing like he's letting the players go to the table. " Action, without, however, printing a tactical imprint on the player's identity. the team, so he may look like a pbadenger.
That does not mean I totally disagree with Ince – he and most of the cohort he named are an absolute disaster in football management. Ince can protest against Ole and the work he has done, but it's nothing but bitter grapes from a bitter and edgy man, who cheat on a bunch of other bitter and angry because he thinks the world owes them something. Longest Ince, Hughes and Co. to remain unemployed in the world of football, the better.

This weekend, I bought the most expensive bottle of beer in my life. I would say it was worth every cent spent, but it meant going to a pub filled with superb clubs watching rugby, which is never a fun experience.
* I really enjoyed football this weekend. For most teams, Crystal Palace's victory over a struggling Fulham would be in the "regulation" box, but it made the Eagles' defeat more likely. It seemed like an interesting match on paper – Fulham's weak defense against Palace's troubled attack was forced to play without his best player, with the potential to see two of the best prospects (Ryan Sessegnon and Aaron Wan-Bissaka) s & # 39; face.
* Perhaps inspired by the use of Romelu Lukaku by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer against Arsenal, Roy Hodgson lined up Palace in a 4-3-3, with Christian Benteke as a wide striker and Jordan Ayew in the center. However, Benteke was able to cross the front line, generally placing himself at the last post for the centers – the penalties he was badociated with and his kick against the bar came from that position. Although he did not score (stop, back), he did a good game.
* Hodgson has found a new system that has worked, but will face a selection puzzler for the next game. Wilfried Zaha is back from suspension, Connor Wickham was not even qualified on Saturday but was impressed against Tottenham and Michy Batshuayi made a good first impression after being chosen by the Cottagers.
* I think it's Steven Chicken who best expressed it when he said that Wan-Bissaka is absolutely amazing, but Palace fans have known it for a long time. Clearly, fans of Manchester club reporters are beginning to tell that Wan-Bissaka would move to the North West, encouraging fans of these teams to do their best to make their impressions of Veruca Salt vivid. want everything back, dad, I want them back, and I want it now. "
* Congratulations to Ashley Barnes for her dedication to respecting the spirit of the game, shouting profanely on the face of two officials for a decision with which he disagreed, which is perfectly acceptable and far from being as odious as sarcastic applause.
* You heard it here first: expect Kevin Nolan to be appointed director of a lower league club. His badistant, Richard Thomas, resigned as Grantham Town director after Saturday's loss to struggling compatriots Workington. The statement by the Gingerbreads indicated that Thomas had accepted an offer to resume the professional game. Things are not going well for Grantham right now. Thomas's replacement is a joint management team from Step 6, described by the club as "exciting." We will see.
