Agree, I remember reading an interview a couple months ago and it certainly sounded like the way things happened this move has changed his mindset as a player. Good on him and shows what can be achieved by some of these talented players if their head’s in the right place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 II was amazed by the difference in the two lunch time games. In the Prem Arsenal played a sterile game v Newcastle and strolled to a win. Meanwhile, in the Champs, Fulham went to Preston and fought out a keenly contested draw with robust tackles & challenges and both sides making chances at goal etc. It was far more entertaining.
