The on topic thread

[RickSanchez]

I don't know if this is on topic or not.
I guess it isn't really.



I really miss having such a classy player represent our country in the PL.
(I keep Cahill/Schwarzer in mind but still...)

Leicester in the top 4 for all but 35 days. Really staggering.
Sunderland in the bottom 3 for all but 38 days but will likely survive. Really depressing.
West Brom in the top half for 8 days. So much nothingness in that club.

 

[Magma]

in the top 4 for all but 3 days and it comes down to whether west ham can get a draw. that's why fans might be a bit upset.

Still trying to remember how and why we spent 10 days in 3rd??

Didn't Brenda have you going well in the first three or four games - I remember you having a couple of 1-0 wins at the start of the season. Then there was probably an international break to keep you there an extra week!

Happens all season to be fair. Not just an Arsenal thing.

First day of the season.

Cazorla has played 3 or 4 games for the U21s as part of his rehab

That Cazorla guy is showing a lot of promise.

Chambers plays with them pretty regularly, as does Gnabry. Not sure why Campbell and Coq played, aside from giving them game time of some variety.

Only took me till RB, once Ivanovic didn't get the spot i knew what was going on

United won the title by playing over 21's most weeks and even bought a 23 year old back from a loan spell to play the last few months in the U21's.

Still, we can't have people saying they've got a shit academy.

And then clubs wonder why there's an issue with their kids in development squads kicking on. They've got them playing underage football in front of nobody and then on top of that you've got some clubs being results focused still

England one of the worst for young players in Europe.

Just seen the last few minutes of the Wham match, felt a bit sad that it's all over for the ground.

13 years ago today since this. In typical City style we lost.

Love this pic
