Not to reopen or re-litigate dead beeves from a decade ago but Szczęsny spending years winning stuff at Juventus, literally retiring, coming back and still being a top level keeper really does put into context just how much time we wasted not just keeping him around.

That's how I expected our games without an actual striker to look. Well-assembled but completely blunted, no cutting edge, no ideas, but trying to work with what we've got. Though that itself only goes even further to show what an outright disgrace everything about Saturday was.

Horrible game but some proper character to dig in and get it done, even if Leicester are awful. Also given us some kind of blueprint until the break - Calafiori and Merino starting, Sterling may be lucky to make the bench.

My favourite kind of goal is one where my only reaction is to burst out laughing. Sometimes cos they're hilarious, sometimes cos they're so good or surprising that I have no idea what else to do. Second goal was both. Both an unbelievable and incredibly funny finish.

That run at the end of January 09 with the four consecutive 0-0 draws. I'd say I'm having flashbacks, but there was nothing to remember apart from being so bored your bones start to hurt.

Mind, if anyone needs a mood lift, the new Kevin Nealon episode of the Conan podcast is really funny.

It's not bad luck when you're a pressing team and all three of the first choice forward line go down with hamstring injuries. Especially when he doesn't have much trust in their alternatives. Even more so when one of those alternatives has had two knee surgeries since 2022, then gets an ACL.

Mad to think we needed a forward at the start of January, lost our most versatile one to an ACL injury 10 days in, then still didn't get anyone at all.

As frustrating as Trossard can be, he's an embodiment of why it's often better to grab a good if imperfect player when you need numbers and quality than it is to wait. We wouldn't have waited til the summer for him in Jan 2023 but he's been incredible value and we'd be far worse off without him.

Really good player but the win now payoff isn't guaranteed enough for the fees involved. It's not like signing the Kane of a couple of years ago or Isak/even Osimhen.

All while #14 is free and we desperately need a forward. You can't let an opportunity like this slip.

In keeping with acknowledging that referees are people too (debatable, but let's go with it), and the fact it's openly acknowledged they find it irritating/embarrassing when VAR tells them to overrule, it's pretty easy to see how a more junior figure would avoid correcting a more senior one.
