It's official.
I'm happy. Feels weird lol.
Just watched the highlights. Great football. Good goals. Good assists. Unlucky not to have more.
Play like that every week and few will live with us.
Rutters decision making is brilliant. Great game. And what passion. That boy is loving his football and that's awesome. Pleased for him.
That's as good I seen since Bielsa but with better defence.

Flip flop.

Well said Aus…. I tend to agree, “Bielsa like” without the defensive flaws.
Byram and Ampadu are really great acquisitions, head and shoulders better than what was before them, including Kalvin imo. All of the new players are really suited to how we play.
Rutter is transformed; he’s playing like he’s possessed; very happy for him.

Agree I’m giddy as a sandman as my great nan would say.
We were class and hopefully finding our rhythm. I know couple of Watford and loads of wall fans and both sets of fans said we was best they’ve seen in a long while.
Funny you mention Belisa… didn’t he go something like 50-60 games in London without a win? Farke got two capital wins back to back! The question is where do we build sir Daniel Farke’s statue?

Top post Aus keep them coming.

Bring back the real Aus you dastardly kidnapping aliens.

No bermo. Me not rising to the bait.
Steady as she goes.
They did bad things to me Doug. Most likely mistook me for Porgie or bazil. I’m fine now for now.

I feel as Stupid now Aus, saying I trusted in Farke and that we’d win by three clear goals ?
Jokes aside a great performance and so good to see smiles back on the players faces.
As others have highlighted our new recruits are so far in advance of the mercenaries who went out on loan.
Better recruitment certainly, better coaching definitely.

Bielsa's defensive 'flaws' which helped us go up as champions with the least goals conceded that season? Funny how time twists their narrative isn't it? Give your head a shake.

Where’s the better coaching proof mate.
Still can’t break the bus and miss hat loads.
Steady the ship.

Hey Aus, is it true that when you abducted by aliens they impregnate you whether male or female? Phone home ?.

Besila did have huge defensive flaws he was also brilliant coach.
Year we went up we didn’t defend well we just kept the ball… he couldn’t organise a defence to save his life
He also didn’t like London unlike farke.

Alf, I agree that we had the fewest goals conceded that season, but actually we let over 60% of the goals in the second half of the season. After we drew 3-3 with Cardiff, we started to get very leaky…. and we have been that way essentially since. 54, 79 and 78 in 8 fewer games in the EPL.
Bielsa was (is) a genius in my eyes and no one can argue how transformative he was on a very ordinary set of players, but defensively his methods were at the very least questionable; they were flawed.
