Like when Lambert brought 3 subs on when we were 2-0 down at Albion you mean?

Shows what a good manager can do. Arsenal were 3 -0 down, and Wenger made 3 subs, and the game changed.

If the manager were that good, wouldn't your enormously expensive side not be 3-0 down to Bournemouth in the first place?

It's not happening for Silky Sam at Palace so far.

Bournemouth took the game to Arsenal, played well and deserved to be 3 up.

No problem. I am almost a pundit and operate with total hindsight!

I don't disagree. But that doesn't change anything that I said.

Moaning that Swansea got an extra 24 hours to prepare and it made a huge difference. Didn't Cardiff get a whole 4 extra days over us?

The games have been scattered all over the place this time though. I didn't realise there were 3 games on last night.

It’s pathetic to hear managers such a The Big Fat Clown from Dudley and Wenger moaning about the Christmas schedule, how long have they managed in this country? It happens every year yet they complain every year. They want the TV cash but don’t want the TV changes.
You can’t have it both ways and it’s about time they grew the fuck up and accepted that they are responsible for crap results and shit performances.

Have you seen the proposed schedule for xmas/new year 2017 - 6 matches in 17 days. They will be going ballistic. It is because it is a World Cup year and PL has to finish so players have a month off before start of tournament.

If any of them have a problem with playing a lot of games then I suggest they don't send out dozens of players on loan.

If only we had a midfield with the likes of both Dembele and Wanyama...sigh.
