Alan …unlucky Del - No chance 😉 Joined Nov 30, 2012 Messages 45,327 Reaction score 13,365 Aug 11, 2017 #268 I'm starting to think Mahrez is just the new Michu. One unbelievable season and then... *poof*.

FrankMunro-371 Active member Joined Nov 26, 2009 Messages 33,315 Reaction score 1 Aug 11, 2017 #270 I remember the time when Arsenal had an almost impregnable defence.

Tredman Salted Caramel Edition Joined Oct 22, 2011 Messages 26,700 Reaction score 13,433 Aug 11, 2017 #274 Because a back 2 of Monreal and Holding is even worse?

Click to expand... In fairness to Arsenal, I think their back three today is about 7th choice collectively.
