i have not been to the bridge for 17 years, but i swear when i used to get over there i never ever heard any of our players booed, groans and moans and the odd shouted insult when a player f**ked up  but never boos

I wouldn’t come back if I were you, it’ll be a horrible disappointment for you.

Been that long for me too. Sorry to our real fans who go to game often and really get behind the team for this but, in the main, our home crowd sucks. Our away fans are magnificant though.

So with Gary on the way out Dave is very likely the new skipper. So how about Ruben as the vice captain?

Probably but that would be a mistake imo.

If he signs a new contract....he's got two years left...

Ah another CHO situation then eh?

That's what im worried about. If he doesn't sign this summer then I assume he's on his way out. 

My hope is he's waiting to see if we sign anyone this summer to take his place. Kante and jorginho are undroppable, he's the third starter at the moment. If we don't - which I assume we won't - then I suspect he will sign. He's still on f**k all wages wise. 

He's becoming an important player now. I think he'll sign.

He said in an interview after the Leicester game that he was not looking to leave.  Obviously tunes can change, but I'm sure him saying that is a result of his increased role.  If he is in the plans, he'll stay.

Posted in the friendly thread too, but Ruben just went down and it doesn’t look good.  Leg gave out on him, I’m pretty confident he ruptured his Achilles just like CHO.

Looks like we just lost one of our best players in a pointless friendly before our cup final.

Well done Sarri for not just giving guys like James and Gallagher minutes today instead of resting someone with injury problems in his past.

Looked pretty bad. The temporary grass over the artificial plastic turf may have caused part of it to as that stuff can get loose.

Isn't it possible he was told to play a decent team?

He left on crutches. Will miss the final. 

What can one say ?

Would of he got sacked for leaving RLC  out away from that artificial turf. I think not.

Stupid club call,  stupid manager. Winner today is not the fight against racism. It is Arsenal.

Bore off. It was a good cause set up by our owner. Not only that, but gives us overseas brothers a chance to watch our team live.

I live in Canada fella I know what it is like to be an overseas blue. Does not change the fact the game should have been moved to AFTER the Europa league final.

What cracking news to wake up to.

This season really can f**k off.

F*cking pathetic to have the friendly before a cup final.

So mad.

this is some f**ked up news for rude morning awakening. I need to put some chelsea wolfe music in my headphones to ease the mental pain. devastated.

Give it a bloody rest, how is this the managers fault in any way? I realise you have some kind of pathetic pathological hatred of a manager who has taken us to 2 finals and top 4 with an incredibly unbalanced side but this is ridiculous even for you.
