Interesting stat: Kiwior has played more minutes than Thomas Partey this season. In the Premier League. If you take all comps even ESR has more than Partey.
Thank you sweet baby Jesus for getting Rice at a bargain price.
On a more serious note though, and I know this will run so many ppl the wrong way, thank god for Havertz and his versatility. I really don't think Havertz is as bad as people make him out to be and I think as time progresses he will only get better.
I think it's time to move on from injury prone players, no matter how good they are. This season has proven that even if you're a great option but you're not available it's pointless.
Did they actually take back the funding?? I mean they really should've invested that money on local athletes in the first place, especially given they've been getting results on the international stage these couple of years.
My assumption is that they were prepared to talk shit about Arsenal losing, they didn't have any alternate talking points prepared, so they just reset to factory default
Some people just enjoy shitting on us. Go back and look at how we were talked about in the media. No one took us seriously, and we barely made a few ppls top 4 predictions, and then we started winning.
"They haven't faced any real competition, just wait"
Once that narrative dried up it was onto
"They can't sustain this"
But we did, and then Jesus got hurt.
"They can't do it without a proper striker"
And we just kept on ticking, winning games and picking up points. Somehow we went from barely being worthy of top 4 to title contenders by mid season and the only team in the league giving City City a proper fight for the title.
Once people got sick of us winning, they started complaining, and out came the fun police.
