You could tell for 15 minutes, this is a completely one-sided game and there's only one win.
And this is Spurs who are, you know, horribly bad.
But I mean, that's the same argument we've had for years with Celtic and Rangers or even Leinster and rugby that they're so used to winning all the time and winning easily and being a dominant team in every game or 90%.
So when it comes to the crunch in Celtic or Rangers in European competition, maybe Leinster and rugby when they get to the latter stages of Europe, they're not able, they don't know how to
you know withstand half a half of pressure or whatever it is like that's that's almost that argument that you're saying that these teams just come in and play the same way but I think yeah like Gordon you mentioned like Liverpool like Arnie Slott came out and I think congratulated Eintracht Frankfurt earlier this season for like thanks for not not like making too hard for us there and playing the way you always did after a 5-1 win because every week you know they were losing in the Premier League by someone who you know played pragmatically
there's a lot of outs there for English teams there's a lot of them going to be in contention over the next few weeks it's there you can clip it it's going to make a less less risky production but like the level I think the levels are so like I've checked trying to do something the other day and I would say I think Bournemouth would win Serie A like that's the different level of teams there that's a bold statement that's a clip come back to me in May and we'll see you in May
Arsenal fans are complaining about that too especially when they don't win it's like we've wasted our own time that's it I mean look there's easy solves or easy fixes if this is a real issue down the line which is like I was watching the Bournemouth Liverpool game last week and I don't know how much time in the entire game is waited for their left back to trot to wherever the throw in is to take the throw in and everyone's just sitting there going well that's fine we'll just you know we'll have 90 second pause here while this guy ambles across the pitch to take the throw in or whatever way it was like they can clamp down on that if
If this is an issue.
yeah the ruby one's slightly different though because dave says like that what happened is you the rule change made for yeah good best interest or good good uh intentions and now teams have found a way to exploit this to kind of have no uh minimize risk because you put a kick up there
You're going to have a bouncing ball.
You could get a penalty.
You could get a scrum in an advantage position.
It's a no-risk move.
Yeah, there's no real change that precipitated this.
But from the Arsenal side, and we started talking about Arsenal, they're all low-risk moves.
Let's pile people in on the keeper, take a corner.
Let's just fling every, as soon as we're inside the other half, let's just put a ball into it.
It's the same low risk, potential high reward move.
And that's, you know, Gaelic football, which changed the rules because that no risk football had become the dominant sport.
Yeah, that's happened a few times.
