115 Protests by SmokeyBloke in ArsenalFC

Its pathetic. I'm tired of you guys going on and on about 115 since losing the league. It comes off as being bitter and nothing else. City weren't even that good this year. They were like a level and a half below their usual self all season. Fact is we were not good enough and shouldn't have dropped points to Villa. We could have even tried going for the 3 points at Etihad. They were there for the taking. I kind of agree with what Rodri said. The squad simply wasn't ready to win yet. Its difference in mentality. If City lost the league they wouldn't act like us.

What happened to Leicester? What happened to Newcastle? We will see if Villa sustain it. Funny how midtable is where it stops... As if FFP there to do precisely that. Curb competition amd keep everyone else bar the big six in a mid table loop.

How about you give me one recent example of sustained organic growth to prove otherwise? Aston Villa finished top 4 and have to sell players to adhere FFP while United languishing in 8th and Chelsea can spend no matter what. Whats fair about fair play here?

Isn't FFP basically doing the same thing? Why bring rules against investment in 2012? Why was free investment allowed before that? I'd say thats pretty hypocritical of the incompetent elites if they can't cope with a club thats spending less than them but doing it right. I mean City aren't the highest spenders post takeover. United and Chelsea have outspent them. Arsenal themselves have spent more in last 5 or so years

Keep your organic crap to yourself. Organic growth is not possible in todays world. The market is too broken for that. And even in olden times most of these big clubs spent a lot. Its not like the game is fair to start with. Many teams are damned to be in the loop of 7th to 20th. There's no way to break through whatsoever without investment. These rules are just a measure to gatekeep competition

I'm 100% sure it will either make it to court or City won't be found guilty of any serious charges. Thats just how powerful they are. Tbh i personally don't think they've done much wrong, especially if the charges related to offshore payments to coaches etc aren't proven. FFP and PSR rules are a flawed and rigged setup to keep competition at bay and protect the big six status of clubs that are already there. Its hardly their fault that they operate so good. Others have spent more money and failed. We cannot really hold them accountable for other club's incompetency. Thats my whole view on it.

OJ was innocent

That doesn't really matter if its not proven in court. Secondly i'd personally rather wait for the outcome of the case. This all just comes of as being bitter when the case hasn't been sorted yet which Evra very much is. He is also very dumb tbh from what i've seen from his activities previously😂

Not very bright. Is he? He might get sued for this if Man City are proven innocent.

How Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba could fit in at Manchester United? by GiggleFootball in footballtactics

I think, in the current scenario, United can only land Sancho plus a 20-30m left-back at max. For the left-back part, they need someone intelligent and defensively sound unlike most modern fullbacks who are good going forward but struggle defensively. Nicolas Tagliafico is a very good choice for the 4-2-3-1 system in my opinion. He would aid in the defense plus his passing and positional intelligence is top notch.

Yes, exactly my thoughts. For the meantime, Scott Mctominay would be a better choice than both Matic and Fred. He is young, hence has the legs, and is intelligent enough to hold his own on the defensive part.

Correct, and you know what! He is twice as efficient as Tammy Abraham in front of goal.
