    Did we just not use him properly?
    Arsenal would be top of the league now if they'd signed him for 30 million in the summer.

    Should have kept him and sold Wilson to Forest.

    Ha, aye.

    Mind, I don't think anyone was disappointed when we sold him. Tbh, I was delighted.

    Then again, as my Brighton prediction proved so spectacularly-I know the square root of fuck all.

    Aye - hindsight is a wonderful thing.

    I don't know anyone that was sad we sold him and he wouldn't be like this for us because the system wasn't built for him, at Forrest it is, the idea is to get ball to him to score. Good for him, very happy but we'd have never done that.

    After our **** show, other results have gone reasonable our way, really need Hammers to do us a favour on Monday though.

    I remember he provided a very substantial plan B for us and we had a run of some very good results with him in the team doing important, unseen work other than goals wuch he also gave us.

    His main job with us was to hold the ball high up field. We didnt give him half the opportunities to score that Forest are.
    He did a good job for us and now hes banging them in at Forest - everyones happy and good luck to him.

    Man City fucking around at the back and paying the price. Arsenal pressed them really high and Man City should have just smacked it long. Eddie Howe take note-we are NOT good enough to pass it around at the back when a team is pressing high against us

    Ended up 5-1 Le Arse as final result . . . excellent, just what we wanted - them pepped up ready for Weds.

    To be honest, we've lucked out with other results around us this weekend, could have been much worse.
