"Last season Ipswich Town had a coach whose quality could see them through a Premier League campaign Kieran McKenna. What they failed to do was to be smart with their recruitment. Despite spending over 100m they signed mostly Championship quality players. During the off-season I noticed Sunderlands business and told anyone who cared to listen they are recruiting well. Other than the quantity they also invested in quality. International quality players. Noah Sadiki was the MVP in Belgium Xhaka returned with years of PL experience. Habib Diarra had caught eye with Strasbourg in Ligue X Adingra"

"Glasers 3-4-2-1 when disciplined is a difficult system to play through. I don't think Arsenal have had enough overloads in the attacking third and their passing in that area hasn't been secure enough to keep the ball. That has to improve. However their rest defence is one of the best in Europe right now. Such a disciplined team off the ball. #ARSCRY"

"Lol. There's no team structurally better than Arsenal at the moment. And by structure I mean being adequately curated to deal with injuries. Also for what the PL has evolved into Arsenal have built for it. The set pieces and the long throws. Quality-wise you can argue Liverpool and City have better X-factors. But for the marathon the Premier League is Arsenal will have failed if they don't win it with how intentional they were with recruitment. PGMOL will always be PGMOL. Fans will be fans.

"Everything has context. If the opposition sits in a low block and they create chances off the set pieces from those that's not too bad. And you play a set piece and they head it out its recycled again and eventually scored still from set-piece. Todays was via set-piece. They should stop fouling Arsenal players and let them walk to goal else they'll have dead balls and will score from them. That's very sustainable 😁"

"These are two different periods. First Division and Premier League. Chelsea never really took off until UEFAs rule changed on international players. And that was in 1995 or thereabout. It was that rule change that spurred Chelsea on. From Ruud Gullit to Gianluca Vialli and everyone else who followed. Pre-90s they were here and there. They got relegated from the old First Division and came back. Spurs weren't great either but they were more regular features in the First Division at the time. Both teams won some cups along it"
