Cutler is the one I really hope stays
Is there any reason the knives would be out for him?

I read that Emery has brought a goalkeeping coach with him to his last 4 or 5 jobs, so there's a chance he'll want his own man in there.

Perhaps he’s coming to a fork in the road regarding his future.

I would hope, as many top keepers have before, that if Emi says keep Cutler as he is good, he's listened too. He's worked with the other chap too at Arsenal before, so will have an insight. Van Der Sarr used to take his all over the shop I seem to remember.

Would love to get ITK about what went down at Arsenal. His stats there were very good yet claims are he lost the dressing room (Ozil etc), reverted to boring football at the end (trying to stave off defeats), and generally lost the plot a little with the media etc. Yet, he followed a legend (always extremely difficult) and made them far better than they were in Wenger's final season. Then was fired.

I'm super pumped, brilliant appointment, but that's the one stain on his CV.

Bought some rather nice Bloody Mary ketchup this summer, probably for another thread mind

Googles and buys.

I can feel another list coming on.

There is nothing I enjoy more than gorging on ketchup, in my LUKE Villa shirt, with RHCP on the stereo.

Just a minor point but for anybody that has doubts about our owners, I've just watched the latest press conference of Amorim before Sporting's game tomorrow with Spurs. He was very diplomatic, intelligent, humourous, fluent in Englsh but reading between the lines he was sold on our 'project', we were never mentioned but you could tell it's the type of project that attracted him. We are in safe hands. The owners have taken back control. We only want the best.

Arsenal? I think it is.

Bettered the previous season's league finish, Europa League final, sacked with the team in 7th place, 55% win percentage.

Hardly a disaster, to be fair.
