General Premier League Thread 2024-25

Nwaneri puts the cherry on the cake for Arsenal. 5-1.

Got some breaks with City mistakes and a key deflection, but when they play without the handbrake on (like the last quarter), they are excellent and should go on a long winning run.

Still waiting for the City run people say will happen

Well they didn't break sweat really, he was right about that part.

Alfie going to have a lot of unpleasant engagements

Haaland will get Skelly in the long grass. Great win for Arsenal. But City are awful. Pep is out of ideas. I was sure they’d have a Rodri replacement ready to go on Jan 1.

Arsenal will barely have an easier game in attack.

It's a statement win, obviously, but that game was zero indication of how they'll do against more robust teams.

As for Pep, he's lost. When he doesn't have the best, he's utterly one dimensional. All he has is 'let's keep doing this, but try to be better'. He can't figure out how to be compact. It's mad really.

Through January they won 3 and drew 1. Scored 15 goals, conceded 4. Hardly a team I'd write off as cannon fodder.

West Ham, Brentford, Ipswich and Chelsea. I didn't know Salford were in the premier league.

There's a difference between saying they won't win the league and might even struggle to make the top 4, as opposed to making out they're some easy beat who you'd expect most teams to destroy. That's crazy stuff.

Does anyone know why Martinez hasn't been seen in the last few weeks talking to Sky about how Man Utd's mentality is so strong?

He, along with others, love the camera when they draw or win a game but are nowhere to be seen when they lose, which is most weeks.

But he's brilliant and one of the best CBs in the league according to the man utd fans in this thread.
