    Happy to see the community adapting to Lemmy, lets make this community (sub?) thrive during the blackout!

    Anyway, Rice? Always rated him.

      Honestly, I hope it thrives after the blackout. I plan on staying for a while. Reddit just rubbed me the wrong way with all their profit chasing.

      Anyway, Rice? Great with some curry.

    I’m at the point with transfers that if Edu and Arteta want a player, then that is good enough for me. They have picked out enough talent and made some great signings that I’m happy to just let them do their thing without getting stressed about who/when we should buy.

    And anyone who does sign for us, I will cheer and back them 100%.

      We’ve consistently had more hits than misses at this point. Even the misses we might be able to offload and break even. The better the team does, the more it affords us to have a few duds here and there.

      We are probably the most engaged Reddit fanbase. Other subs have more users but I think we generally tend to have more activity than other subs, so it wouldn’t be surprising if we were kicking ass here too

      I have a secret weapon.

      If I forget I’ll just blame the mods for not automating it…

      Also it should probably be at a better time than just 'I’m awake and we don’t have one yet

          True although I doubt much is being broken at half past two on a monday morning in the UK.

              Jealous, enjoy all the dim sum.

              Always a weird one as to when the DD thread should be posted, I know spurs do theirs at midnight

                Personally I like the way r/soccer did it which is having it move an hour every day so it starts at a different time each day with threads lasting for 23 hours.

                also yes the dim sum :D its good to be home again, though the heat…

    I sort of feel like we’re missing the hot takes so… I really don’t ahve an issue with chasing Castagne.

    He seems solid, the Belgians still play him and literally no one has come out of the Leicester defence with looking good so I’m prepared to say it might not be his fault.

    Remember Ramsdale was relegated twice.

      I trust in eduteta tbh, they’ve learned it; plus our last belgian went well and Stuivenberg has coached Castagne also

                  Clearly Kompany as a City legend told us to sign him to sabotage our title run /j Sambi’s gonna be pretty decent and I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t become a significant part of the Belgian national team eventually, just not yet

        Well your name certainly doesn’t ring any bells…/s

        How are you liking this? Apart from it being noticeably quieter?

          Sorry, real life rather rudely intruded oday and I haven’t got a Lemmy app.

          It’s not as slick as reddit but as I still mainly use old reddit it’s not too different.

          It really shows that for all Reddit tries to make things look cool and add paid for content, what actually makes it special is the amount of people using it. If everyone from r/gunners was on here there’s really no reason not to stay here and let reddit die.
