    Not really that worried tbh, Bamford and Ayling are integral to the way we play. The understudies are just that understudies.

    When Bamford and Ayling are both back, we will defo starting picking up more points and wins.

    Forget last year, that is history, the only season that matters is the one that is currently happening.

    Fair enough.
    So the opposition mark Bamford and Ayling out of the game and we’re fu cked again.
    We said when Phillips came back we’d be ok, same for Llorente and Raphinia, didn’t happen.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love Bielsa. But I fear he’s run out of ideas. The players were looking bewildered at each other vs Brighton. When our pressing game doesn’t work or we run out to steam, then that’s it, it’s all we’ve got.

    Interesting theories about the weakest player dragging the better players down

    Maybe I am going senile, but I seem to recall Shoot being weekly when I was growing up. I guess I am misremembering. I used to devour all that Alan Ball and Kevin keegan wrote as columnists. Used to do the quiz on "you are the ref". I also got back issues of Goal, from my family's lawyer a rich man who was an Arsenal fanatic. Flew thousands of miles to watch Arsenal play. Told me the atmosphere at Highbury was "electric". He said Stamford Bridge was dead.

    Liked Highbury - the north bank was a great place to be back when you could stand

    Think it was weekly but here in oz at the time being the 70 we used to get our copies up to a month later, Too far back I should remember but don't. Also, loved the team and player posters they had.
    Do they still print it?

    Had to look this up. Shoot! Was weekly. Loved the centre fold posters too. No apparently it is not being printed.
