The USA is better than Panama. Bruce Arena is a moron and wouldnt play guys who are clearly more talented because they werent his guys or werent "experienced" enough. For instance Geoff Cameron, while not a world beater is still a solid CB for Stoke, didnt play vs Trinidad and Tobago so a guy Arena coached when they were with the LA Galaxy could play instead. Or playing Michael Bradley over a regular for Huddersfied (Danny Williams) because he wasnt familiar with the team(because Arena never called him in earlier),a guy starting for top of the Mexican league Monterry (Jonathan Gonzalez) and a regular for Shalke (Weston Mckennie), who were "too young" to be included in the team. Or continuing to play Villifanna at left back despite always being caught out of position and Zusi at right back over Timmy Chandler, a starter for Frankfurt, because Timmy wasnt use to the setup (again because Bruce didnt call him. He had multiple caps from Kinsmann). There are plenty more examples of his stupidity Im not saying we would have done much if we made the World Cup, but if Arena had played the best XI who were healthy and was a decent coach, we would have at least finished 3rd. I know the player pool is limited, but we should still have qualified.

its as if playing your 3 best attackers works better than not playing them together

He has had years to see the Sanchez Ozil combination. I would rather see the Sanchez Lacazette Ozil front 3 rather than Sanchez Ozil iwobi. I know it was only Everton, but Sanchez Lacazette and Ozil played great against them. Im not saying if we played Lacazette instead of Iwobi we would have scored 5 or even drawn, but it would have been better. I also dont get the centerback situation. Why is he playing Coquelin as a cb?

If conversation clubs consist of nationalities, then Texas Tanki fits right in

theres a lot of things Wenger does that i dont get

We finally play Lacazette, Ozil, and Sanchez, and we score 5 goals. Its like we should have been playing them together the whole time.

dont see many barca fans who still like Neymar. Also arent Argentina and Brazil rivals?

that wasnt what i said. i said losing to palace is MORE embarrassing

I didnt say Arsenal is better. I said losing to Palace is much more embarrassing than losing to Watford. Chelsea got scored on twice by a team that had 0 goals through 7 games. 1 was an own goal, but you still gave up a goal to a team that had scored 0 through 7. Watford is in 4th. Palace is in dead last.

Chelsea losing to Palace is alot worse than Arsenal losing to Watford. Watford is in 4th with a goal differential of 15. Palace is in last with a gd of -16. Arsenal also had a bad penalty go against them/

Lacazette, Ozil, and Sanchez still havent played together.

You should move to Houston. You wont regret it.

so Sanchez Ozil and Lacazette still havent played together that was a handball on ramos so because the champions league refuses to have video reviews, Dortmund is 6 points back. Aubameyang had a goal waved off for offsides when he was on against spurs and Ramos had a clear handball on the line in the 13th min. Aubameyang would have tied the game at 2 and Ramos should have gotten red and given Dortmund a penalty in the 13th. Its possible they still would have lost both games still, but those are two huge calls not corrected because they dont want to mess up the "flow of the game"

sanchez more than ozil. preferably both

Ozil Lacazette and Sanchez still havent played together yet

at chelsea we should play with a back 4 Cech Bellerin Mustafi Koscielny Kolasinac Xhaka Coquelin Ramsey Ozil Sanchez Lacazette or Cech Bellerin Mustafi Koscielny Kolasinac Xhaka Ramsey Ozil Welbeck Lacazette Sanchez

hard to see it getting worse than it is now

Wenger said he considered stepping down this summer. We were so close

At first i thought we should keep Sanchez, ox, and ozil because if we made top 4 they would all stay. But to make top 4 we needed to improve our defense and midfield. We didnt do that. Making top 4 isnt impossible, but its more likely we lose Sanchez on a free. Hopefully im wrong.

is it good though? If he leaves on a free and we still finish outside of the top 4(which is likely because we didnt fix our defense), was it worth it?

Arsenal are frustrating

there wasnt a mandatory evacuation. The governor said to evacuate. the mayor said to stay. the reason they told people not to evacuate is because in previous hurricanes so many people tried to leave at once, the traffic got horrible. many people died on the road. I dont know why they couldnt have have had the flood prone areas leave at least.

So far 20 people are confirmed dead across south east Texas. Over 1 trillion gallons have fallen in Harris County(Houston's main county) alone. There has been so much rain the National Weather Service had to change the colors on their graphs to indicate it. the red cross is a good place to donate to This is JJ Watt's fundraiser. this is for pets impacted by the floods The rain has stopped in Houston, but there is still a chance for more flooding. Now Beaumont and other eastern towns are getting flooded hard.

if they managed to win a competition without being in it, i think Wenger should never be fired
