here it is: we are actually worse defensively, in addition to offensively, when palhinha and bentancur play together.

that two players maximum would get into arsenal’s xi is going to make them winning the title all the sweeter.

It makes some sense for a side like Brentford, where you're not going to make many chances, to focus on making them 'bigger'. Whereas sides with better players will probably do better with more low quality chances because, well, excellent players score more from low quality than average players.

On the numbers it’s worth also considering that Forest did this to United last week. That’s over 3.5 times our open play xG

We finished 13th on expected points last season; we got a bit unlucky to slump so low. We are 11th on expected points this season; we got a bit lucky to be so high. Time to stop gaslighting about 17th. We weren't that terrible then, and we're not that good now. Injuries suck. We're suffering.
I don’t know if Frank is the guy or not but if you think this has no bearing on our form/selection in addition to playing two games a week I don’t know what to tell you. Esp if you are convinced the only reason we finished 17th last year were injuries/recruitment.

Manchester United are shit, and saying their name a lot doesn't change that by evoking the great Ferguson sides. We aren't stupid, Thomas. We've beaten their 'big boys' 4 times this year and we're not Brentford so a point at home against them isn't good.
Stop gaslighting us and ATTACK.
