per looked a lot better with kos. think his form will improve with kos back.

"86 year old Citizen Kun Aguero Passes Away"

thought he was very good in the first 60 minutes but faded.

I don't think our D can be fixed until kos is back. per can't handle the added responsibility.

bringing poldi on when you're trying to defend, hold onto the ball, and kill off a game was madness. also, taking off two of our paciest players when we're going to have the ability to counter was awful too. don't mind the rosicky sub, but maybe for santi or the clearly gassed Ramsey?

crowley's goal from this morning (willock with the assist):



my match report from that youth match should be up eventually...no one has edited it yet :/ we lost 2-1 :(

for sentimental reasons, i want Henry to play for us the last half of the season. i also think he could contribute. he is unreal. can't physically start, but i'd take him over a hell of a lot of our bench attackers as an option off the bench if we're chasing a goal.

unfortunately, i gave up on my following of sevilla after watching one match or else i could give a scouting report :lol:

we didn't have ozil at that point. i think we all thought 1) cesc wanted to come back if he failed at barca and 2) we would fit him in somewhere no matter what. at least one of those is certainly true and they both might be.

we played a 4231 yesterday, though with an out of form santi, alexis, ox, and welbeck as the attacking players, there was no one to really dictate our attacking play. wasn't really surprised we struggled with attacking fluency. the only real hope of a arteta-flamini axis is in big matches where we play more like napoli from a couple years ago with a front 4 of speedy attackers. against lesser teams where we will dominate possession, we really need ozil. would also help if sanchez passed the ball more quickly on counters.

also, when are we going to start lambasting ox? he's been largely awful this year. it was set up to be his breakout year but he's really struggled and is about to be pushed out of the XI by Walcott and Gnabry (maybe even Campbell) deserves some chances over him as well.

it's on fox sports 2 so foxsportsgo would work too for streaming.

really doesn't have anything to do with this issue.
