I suspect Tony has some kind of knowledge that losing MC might be a problem. This has only blown up because of the Insta message on Friday, he wasn’t leaving this window until that popped up. New agents and Arsenal (ie potentially winning stuff and CL next season guarantee) has changed things and RdeZ is understandably affected.
His post match comments sound extremely pissed off he's not been backed to improve the squad
Deffo. Coming back a bit from injury just a workout Was just slightly off the pace. Also saw RDZ screaming at him in the first half for not moving it forward quickly enough. Lamptey too. Was going spare when they kept cruyff turning backwards.
Been a tough couple of days for management at the club. Not going to over-analyse a few soundbites in someone’s second language and jump to any conclusions personally - we’ll know more in a few days
As I commented on the Liverpool match thread when they released the line up.

This shows through in interviews with players including Dunk after the match and Lallana last week.
Love the man, not only does he think our squad has "BIGGa balls" he also doesn't celebrate when we win while playing badly. So refreshing to hear the manager and players (Dunk at least) saying yep sure we won but we played like shit, rather than the old "yeah I am happy that the boys stuck it out and got the win" Nope he addresses what we all saw and it's simply not good enough for him.
My Mother spent 50 plus years living in Blighty and I still had problems understanding what she was on about right up to the day she passed, especially interesting when she got excited or hacked off about something.
