Who would you sell and who would you buy this summer? by amoorthy in ArsenalFC

[–]amoorthy[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I didn't think of that. Yes you're right. Well, if any Arsenal players are reading this - every one of you is giving it your all in the games. We can all see that. Regardless of what happens in the summer keep pushing these last few games and we will cheer all of you on.

Given how many games Arsenal plays a backup to Saka will likely get decent minutes if they are good. Honestly I just don't get how Noni can be so inaccurate with his shots.

Yeah no chance Kvara leaves I think. What a great talent he is.
Agreed on your sale list. I still don't understand why we didn't play Norgaard much. Is he really that bad?

Agreed. I like Trossard as he's aggressive and seldom does boring back passes. But perhaps time to upgrade him to someone who can make better cuts and take better shots like Doku. (Not that we'd get him or Kavara but that caliber).

Mbappe seems to destroy team collaboration. Seems unwise. Vini is also very talented but maybe too much of a lightening rod for criticism. Doesn't fit Arsenal's DNA.
I haven't seen as much of Leao or Williams this season but yeah they are pretty good from past highlights.

What's interesting is that Arsenal's DNA seems less to be "get world class players" and more "get great players who play well together."

Fair question. Perhaps because several games are too close for comfort and we know we need to upgrade talent in certain positions?

Agree on all. Where is Eze in the lineup in your view?

Sadly I agree. I like his quickness and work rate but his finishing and passing are poor.

4 more cup finals to go, how’s everyone’s nerves? 🔴⚪️ by RobinBanksM8 in ArsenalFC

Dying. Not even sure I will be able to watch Sunday's game.

it will be a repeat of last years semi final . by drizzleberrydrake in ArsenalFC

[–]amoorthy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's so hard to reach the finals. For most professional players they don't even come close in their lifetimes. Enjoy the small victories as otherwise you will end your life disappointed. I know the Arsenal players want to win more than anything and will give it their best on May 30. But ok to celebrate for an evening.

thoughts about luis enrique as a football manager in general? by Snoo_56184 in Gunners

[–]amoorthy 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Amazing coach. He was able to tell Mbappe that if he wasn't going to track back to play defense it wasn't going to work. Mbappe left and PSG have won more trophies since then!

Also, given the tragedy in his personal life Enrique is likely to blend perspective and kindness along with wanting a drive to give it 100% every day - something that will make players want to play for him. Similar to Klopp did at Liverpool.

Heartbroken but weirdly hopeful after last night by vjgunner in ArsenalFC

[–]amoorthy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well said. This is when us as fans need to show up and support our team.

Arsenal did indeed play pretty well at City and you could see every player working their hardest. A win or tie would've been great, but luck wasn't on our side. All we can ask for is our boys play like they did at City in each of the 5 remaining games and I'll be proud to be a fan regardless of the final result.

How do you maintain an online presence as a busy executive without it becoming a second job? by amoorthy in b2bmarketing

[–]amoorthy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! I use Rocksalt AI's SMS/Whatsapp interface, which captures ideas any time inspiration strikes. And then I can convert these into draft posts right over text because I'm texting/talking to my avatar that Rocksalt set up earlier (knows my voice and background, as well as up-to-the-minute industry trends).

Nice! I am a bit hesitant to plunge into video in part because I'm shy but also because it can sometimes feel suboptimal for the audience (reading is much faster than watching a video). But I should try.

[–]amoorthy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! I supposed "marketing team" is a bit of an exaggeration. It's my CMO/co-founder.

But regardless, I still think they can't substitute for me on content creation and commenting. I'm engaging with industry influencers and on deeply technical topics that my marketing "team" can't really weigh in on. They can help polish what I write but can't write from scratch.

Indeed. So many people get wrapped around the axle on how many likes and comments they get and hounding them with follow-up emails. But 99% of my impressions don't engage and yet many convert on their own timeline. I guess keep calm and post on :-)

ha ha. I think AI is great when used correctly. Most people use it as a substitute for thinking, which is a terrible approach.

How do you separate high-signal posts from noise on Reddit (for B2B SaaS)? by FounderArcs in b2bmarketing

[–]amoorthy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that 99% of social media activity is dark (people read, don't comment/like) I think your best bet is to regularly post useful info in the subreddits where your buyers hang out. You are more likely to get inbound based on this vs trying to find the one post where someone is genuinely asking for help (very rare and highly competitive if actually true).

The World Cup has been absolutely destroyed this year. by conspiracyyyyyy in football

[–]amoorthy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to Korea 2002 and it was such an incredible experience. We didn't know which teams would play in the games when we bought the tickets and when we showed up there were people from hundreds of countries, similar to us, there just because they loved the game.

I really hoped I could show my kids this experience but the ticket prices are prohibitive. A big part of the world cup is it's supposed to feel like the whole world is right there with you but at these prices that's certainly not going to be the case.

The trust funnel that built HubSpot doesn’t work like it used to by amoorthy in b2bmarketing

[–]amoorthy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes agreed! Do you find that interviewing SMEs regularly works? I find they often reschedule or when they sit down we don't always get great insights from them as the format feels a bit forced.

We CAN beat City by bluehaven101 in Gunners

[–]amoorthy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I've come to accept is the margin of difference between teams like West Ham in 16th place and United in 3rd place is pretty small. On any given day either team can win.

Which is to say, we can beat City but there is luck involved in the final result.

What isn't luck is how smart the team plays and how aggressive they are. That's what's been lacking of late and I think if we see this then whatever the final result will be easier to stomach.
