But, that said the key is to put yourself in the end users shoes when developing a product, which I think it feels like they haven't quite managed to here.
So, it's Southampton away in the quarters for the Arsenal, would have preferred a home tie, obviously. But it could definitely have been worse and City & Liverpool drawing each other has got to be a bonus. Chelsea get the plum draw at home to Port Vale and West Ham or Brentford will face Leeds.
They like to call it beta testing, basically put it out to market, garner feedback, make improvements on the fly. It does expectedly save a lot in R&D costs too, as you can imagine.
This has also been picked up by the BBC as well
Yeah, I must have read it about 3 times before it went anywhere near sinking in!
GG: a load of established players with big egos who were cleared out and replaced with younger, hungrier players, in an attempt to win a first League title for 18 years, the circumstances and approach to better the team and the club in my eyes are pretty close, plus there are many other similarities
100% is! I was referring to the circumstances, I was not comparing the laws of the game or specific competition rules from different eras?!
Wayne Rooney: "Arsenal have got a good mix, they’ve got different players who score goals, they’re hard to play against, they keep clean sheets. I actually enjoy watching them play."

I think its important to consider the base Arteta is building from relative to that of Wenger, when Arsene took over, a lot of the players had won the League title 6 years prior & the club's 2nd European trophy 3 years prior. I think that's a marked difference. For me Arteta is more comparible to GG
Of course it isn't?! 🤷♂️
My mistake, I thought I was replying to a post in the first person
I don't think I was asking you
Yep, it's the weird 70s dad style misogyny that seems to underpin a lot of weird behaviours in this country & I guess football is right in the middle of all that. It's always anti-change and without good reason, some people really struggle with any form of differences & they have the loudest voices!
Rich people are so weird, I used to think it was just English toffs who acted like this, due to their inbreeding down the centuries, I was clearly wrong!
Can you please take Northumberland and Tyne and Wear with you, we could build a big new wall across the A66?
I find that so hard to believe, on so many levels!
And the fall out from him sorting their diets out, banning mars bars from the team bus and making them eat chicken and broccoli...so pathetic!
Not just the nth confirmation that BrewDog was not quite the right-on enterprise it claimed to be, but also another illustration of why and how carbon credits and PIUs are a godsend to grifters.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.
OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…
“Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”
It's so much more than that, the north west clubs have been pushing back since we first started competing at the top in the 1930s, it's the same clubs involved, but with different personnel pushing back now.
I've been fluctuating between nervous as anything & quietly confident for a while now.
And yes, ha, you're right, that's how I see most of the punditry in this country, it's mainly biased opinions from ex-Man U and Liverpool players, 2 clubs we have never got on well with. Enjoy your Friday mate 🍻
I hope so, it's a different kettle of fish in European games, open expensive football is a lot easier when the opposition don't put 10 or 11 men behind the ball as in the PL, it's so refreshing & I've preferred it all season long, but we need to win the league really, anything else is a bonus.
I think that was the idea with focusing on the defence and being tough to beat from the start of Arteta's reign, remember he played for Arsenal when the headlines were all "Arsenal don't like it up 'em!" and "Arsenal's soft underbelly exposed again", I think that has stayed with him
Cheers Adrian, top quality analysis is so rare these days, very, very good analysis of every detail of the goal, especially calling out Hincapié for his ball recovery that started the whole thing, I really enjoyed it.
I just read this and saw that Matty Flamini is now worth £10bn, that has got to be the best ex-player nest egg, surely?! I knew he set up that oil alternative company years back and it all seems to be paying huge dividends now!

Obviously the latter, but he's just not very good at media management, despite him thinking he's prime Sir Alex!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really enjoyed that, great read and spoke to how I feel about all the nonsense and an excellent summing up...
"Until then, have a good one. Unless you’re a German football manager called Fabian.
I hope you step on some upturned Lego."
