100% - Barnes has to start on the left / Murph on the right.

What a weird thing to post. He had the ball about twice and did nothing wrong before being moved to the wing. Agree we need another striker of course.

We aren’t beating anyone with Wilson starting. He’s absolutely done.

No disgrace in the defeat or performance. Worth remembering that they are still a very good side. What it does highlight though as that we are really lacking quality strength in depth and Callum Wilson's time at the club is done. He's too past it to be support to Isak. All on Everton next week then, which is what we thought it would be.

Let him dive to the fucking bench!

hahahahahahaha

Have Everton suddenly turned into fkn Barcelona? We'll smash them man. Massive party in the Bigg Market, burning effigies of Pickford. Best season in 70 years. Can't wait.

What will it mean?

Lets not allow this result to demotivate us. We are still leading the pack, do our work at home like we did against Chelsea to a far inferior opponent.

If Isak isn't fit put Osula up top

Moving on to Everton, he shouldn't start. Too many poor games vs them.

He is horrible when receiving possession in our own half. It’s heart in mouth stuff at the moment.

Barnes has scored nearly as many league goals as Gordon did last season in half as many starts and is getting moved to accomodate him playing like this. Baffling.

I would consider starting Barnes and Murphy against Everton I think. I’d love a Gordon triumph story but he’s not helping himself at the moment.

If Isak isn’t fit we all know who’s starting and we all know what it’ll mean.

I wouldn't say it was expected - not at all. And tbh if we'd took our chances we would be deserved winners - what's frustrating is we didn't take them and knowing if we had our best player on the pitch we most likely would have won that game. Bar a couple of shots Pope had very little to do - the fact Raya got MOTM says it all.

Odd decision really. Trying accommodate Gordon. In this game first half against Saka then yeah understandable. But not all the other times! Kind of how Barnes has lost form. To a segree.

I was talking about the second half if you read it.

Wasted on the right and the player that took his position is worse than him.

I don't think many teams are that different depending on the form of one player. I understand why that is, but that's besides the point.

Bit gutting because we probably deserved it over the 90. Lot of pressure on next week but Howe normally delivers. We are above one of them no matter what. A draw could be enough but we can do it!

Could sell for 80 mill and replace with better from abroad.

Hopefully that 30 minutes showed people what level Osula is on. We need a backup striker. He looks raw as hell.

Do liverpool want him? The problem is don't think we would actually make much profit from selling him with his current form. I just hope he gets better next season.
