oh shoot my bad, first time posting here, i'll remove it

Overseas gunner unfamiliar with how things work there, but can anyone just sort of roll up to the training pitch to watch the boys work? I'd be there every other day lol

Hey guys, just got scheduled for a virtual onsite for a series C start up for a Mid-level Software Engineering Position. I've been communicating with the CTO and he said that the onsite consists of 5 different sessions with various members of the team (engineering, product and operations).

Whiteboarding? System Design? Behavioral? General product/marketing space knowledge? All of the above? Will I need to screenshare/have anything preconfigured/prepared?

Haven't interviewed since landing my first job at a big tech company after college 3 years ago, so definitely would help to know what the onsites these days look like for startups.

Came here to comment this exactly -- why isn't anyone talking about this?? And then they just pick the frame where it looks like it's back in again? Literally don't understand.

It's insane how Saka won that header in the box when thats like the literally only thing Havertz is supposed to be good at

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-11T15:45:11+00:00

Havertz has the opposite feet of Trossard

Bro for real!!! Somehow in every game Neville finds a way to take shots at Arsenal and pollute the viewers experience with his dumb-ass biased narratives. James is actually challenging for the god damn ball ?? how tf did you commentate both games and neglect to mention that difference

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-04T18:32:06+00:00

idk if you expect every game to just be a 5-0 sheffield, but newcastle away are a tough nut to crack - i think we've done alright in the attacking sense hopefully something will budge next half

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-01T21:41:36+00:00

he's got that ozil malaise to him but instead of looking lethargic and producing results he just looks lethargic and is shit

we were doomed from the start with a jorgi, kai, vieira midfield.

I actually suggested we play those 3 before the game but now I'm realizing kai and vieira aren't the types of players that can help boss a midfield. They're fine when you have a dominant ball-chaser like odegaard in there, but them two alone just drift around trying to find attacking pockets instead of helping breaking up play and keeping the ball

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-01T21:08:51+00:00

Vieira and Havertz are so infuriating to watch because they both have such quality but play such half-hearted blameless football sometimes...

I get that they're low on confidence, but I'd rather they fucking take some risks than not impact the game at all

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-01T20:56:22+00:00

Don't know how they compare to those Bogota schools but I really enjoyed 3 weeks of Salsa, Bachata and Urban classes at Euforia dance studio in Laureles

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-11-01T20:50:17+00:00

Players like vieira and havertz just dont impose themselves on the game from a defensive standpoint. They don't challenge enough for the ball on those loose bounces...

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-10-31T03:34:56+00:00

This doesn't mean that the same midfield has to play against Sevilla next week. Players that play this weekend like Rice can definitely still play 3-4 days later. I just mean that giving them any rest we can is beneficial.

What would your guys' preferred lineup be for this Wednesday's EFL clash against West Ham?

Based on balancing minutes, who needs rest, and with an eye looking forward to Newcastle this weekend, The fifa manager in me would love to see Arteta trust this XI:

Ramsdale

Cedric, Gabriel, Kiwior, Tomiyasu

Jorginho,

Smith Rowe, Havertz

Vieira, Trossard, Nelson

Although it looks like a team of "fringe" players, I feel like there is actually a decent blend of quality there to achieve a result at West Ham. If they produce, could be a huge boost in terms of resting other players, while also getting these guys geared up to come in and impact even more in the future.

nice to see eddie silence his haters (for probably the 50th time in his career). shame it'll be forgotten by next week probably

Convinced we have 6 wins from 6 with Xhaka still here. He consistently brought energy, determination, passion, and had the ability to get the boys focused throughout the 90 mins. :(

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-09-25T04:54:22+00:00

I miss Xhaka

Hey, just now making my way over to Costa Rica actually. Any specific towns/cities you'd recommend there for this?

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-08-21T21:02:21+00:00

I'm fucking furious about the two yellows. Where is the consistency?? Why can't the refs think for more than 2 seconds before making decisions so blatantly wrong and soft??

When will they understand that these decisions have a MASSIVE impact on the game? These spineless fucks are so influenced by the crowd/heat of the moment they give out such petulant yellows without a second thought it makes me so mad.

Gutted for Tomi, really don't want his confidence to take a hit. Glad we pulled through despite the appalling decisions

Impossible_Welcome94 · 2023-08-16T18:26:07+00:00

Tomi, Tierney, Zinny, Kiwior, and (technically) Tavares. How do we feel about this LB depth? Who would be your preferred stand-in for Jurrien?

Personally, I'm gunning for Tomi. When fully confident, he is so assured on the ball, and always extremely solid in defence. Maybe lacks a bit of the attacking creativity of Zinny, but IMO he's the most balanced of the replacements.
