I genuinely don’t understand their intentions with this kit as well as how they handled last season’s black kit stock availability in general.

You would think that if they want maximum profits they should have ramped up the black kit production tenfold to cater to demand, then continue on the kit as a third kit this season or something

reminds me of viviano

Almunia was bought as a backup that got promoted cause the first choice GK was doing badly. Then when Almunia himself was doing badly Fabianski (another that was bought as backup) was promoted, which himself was taken over by Mannone (3rd choice) for awhile cause of performance and injury.

In the end we finally “upgraded” with Woj, which was technically an academy graduate so not a single cent was spent lol. We finally spent money on a proper keeper in Cech but in hindsight it didn’t bring us much joy either

It was so frustrating

Post ACL Bellerin was quite frustrating for me, sadly he lost his pace but he also lost that bravery to try to beat his man for some reason, kept playing safe passes, didn’t try as much to run down the line and cross, and of course later the foul throws
