Gabby was fine until he was made to bulk up.

Gabby would've kicked off the second someone had a direct conversation with him, the pathetic manchild.

Agreed. He lost the differentiating pace that made him such a threat. But I think MON leaving and the chaos that followed didn’t help. He’s accountable for his own actions of course but the environment made him fat and lazy. He’s responsible for some superb moments but now he’s remembered by us for being a wasteful wanker.

It’s astonishing what an elite coach can do. We’re incredibly lucky.

I just want to stroke his hair and tell him he is the most beautiful person in the world.

When we got twatted 4-0 there under the fraud Gerrard we had 0 shots on target and were 1 point above the drop zone. Now look at us.

That was under Danks after we'd sacked Gerrard to be fair.

38 points from 18 games under Emery.

Over a season that's 80 points.

Stone. Cold. Genius.

Best manager since Sir Ron. Needs to be fully backed now so he gets us into CL and doesn’t need to go anywhere else.

38 points from 18 games.

That matches our total for 2011/12, 2013/14, 2014/15

Obviously beats 2015/16, also beats 2019/20
