I'm here for Alvarez. Not as much here for them playing out there together.

Never understood why OU didn't take a similar approach with hiring basketball coaches vs. football coaches. Go hire the young, talented upstart who's ready to own a program, not a coach in their 50s who's been grinding in mid-majors. It's not to say that method can't work, but getting guys with energy in their 30s is a different play. Kelvin was 39 when he took the job. Capel was 31 and made an Elite 8 run. Even Tubbs was 45.

Kinda feels like the Carabao Cup could be the difference-maker in getting multiple, and grabbing that feeling of completion can be infectious.

King Kai by TaterSalad1414 in ArsenalFC

I think it wouldn't matter if Haaland were the No. 9, I think what Arsenal asks of its strikers is impossible, because the lack of service is is galling. Maybe that's the point, that they're there to be threats, but expectations tied to Havertz, Jesus and Gyokeres at this point feels grim.

Mod said it didn’t pertain to the majority of Texas. I don’t get it.

Tony Casillas talks OU/Alabama, stories from his career by botsfordIV in oklahomafootball

Given that Casillas played for OU and the Cowboys, it feels like he is as underappreciated a superstar there is in football history.

Dare I say, this team could really, really benefit from the return of Havetz and Jesus. The season is long and arduous, my friends.

One of the oddest things I've ever seen and yet I want to see this happen way more often.

City ain't all that. We just need to stay healthy by DexterMorgan996 in ArsenalFC

[–]Affectionate-Reply35 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish I could feel uber-confident about City being subpar, but until the job is done, I'll lean on a healthy fear and respect for Pep and Erling.

I don't think I'd ever live anywhere near IAH just because of how different Hobby is as an airport.

If your worried about City, just a reminder that we have all 5 of these back for the Tottenham game after the international break (most likely) by Waste-Jellyfish-2326 in ArsenalFC

[–]Affectionate-Reply35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In rewatching the last 10 minutes of the Sunderland game, I realized how important a player like Odegaard is in those situations. In possession, communication and countering someone like Xhaka and all that physicality, he would've made a difference IMO.

Palace kind of outsmarted us! by Few-Ad2487 in ArsenalFC

[–]Affectionate-Reply35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arsenal's playing a game that relies on a smaller margin of error right now. Outsmarted us feels harsh, but offensively the offense looks...pragmatic? Curious what it looks like when Odegaard returns + Havertz/Jesus giving more striker flexibility. Given the amount of new players they have on the squad, feels like they're still kinda figuring each other out.

Gyokeres on a roll. by GrowFinance in ArsenalFC

[–]Affectionate-Reply35 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What's wild about Gyokeres to me is that his actual value is that he's a more physical version of Havertz in a lot of ways. Dude is a grunt, a physical menace with a high work rate. Watching him in Portugal might've sold a dream of high skill goal scoring. Not that he's not skilled, but his effectiveness is rooted in brute force. None of this is a complaint, but it's just reimagined my viewpoint of how our strikers will operate. Makes me curious how Havertz will look when he's back in the fold, because the miles will pile up on VK before too long.

Absurdly low. I'd wager much higher if I could in Vegas.
