Oh dear we are the most boring & Arsenal most ugly

This is the depressing truth: The Premier League will be won by the country's ugliest team... or the most boring, writes JEFF POWELL

Let's not kid ourselves, we do not belong in that article as it is almost entirely a moan about what everybody else is moaning about at the moment. It is not a moan about us being boring (which is why we are not mentioned beyond the two short paragraphs about Pep liking his teams to keep hold of the ball). Who can really argue with anything he says? Note the stupidity of his comment about wanting ugly to win over boring because he liked watching Arsenal when George Graham was in charge. Kind of undermined his whole argument with that one.

We are boring, first instinct back or sideways passing, we can turn a corner into a back pass to the keeper

I know a few posters have mentioned boring football, however to say we are most boring in league could be a bit of a stretch.

It's probing and looking for an opening or working a plan to isolate someone. Why would we just try a stupid Hollywood pass every time and consistently turn over the ball.

I get the slow build up play can frustrate and sometimes we have an opportunity to break at pace and don't do it, but that doesn't mean we are boring

Him and those like him are what ruined transfer windows for me.
I am sure that one of the reasons behind the inflated prices is this constant build up.

Hope he is called out.

Indeed, and the moral of the story is to treat all publications from the media about what could or might happen as absolute bullshit until it actually does happen

Same as with 99% of all media..they long stopped telling us the real news and decided instead to tell us their opinions on what the news should be.

Agreed. And probably a good proportion of what is reported as fact is also bullshit as well.

Remember history is written by the victors

How many times are Juventus in the rumours section on media platforms. Never buy any of the players they are supposedly interested in. Just like the grifter married to the Spice cadet. Always in the news for no real reason .

Yeah, he also had a dig at Newcastle in the article.
But finally, someone called Romano out, which is excellent.

I am no fan of Romano but you can usually take what he says as fact for transfers. I have wondered in the past about how he has locked in those clubs/agents to get those exclusives.

Nick Harris comes across as a very jealous and bitter twat who has a severe dislike of Romano. The fact that Harris has to put this on his own website and that no fleet street tabloid/broadsheet will touch it speaks volumes about Harris.

Harris is a proper rat. Romano is mates with Viana so it's no wonder Harris is digging him out.
