Feels like Longstaff is in the 6 role at the moment. Can’t stand him playing there.

He also doesn’t read the game as well yet. He’ll get there but we need to remember he shouldn’t really be playing in our first team yet.

We’re pretty easy to defend against tbf

Ruined my weekend all this talk about him leaving. Pretty depressed now. Thanks guys.

Another successful team with a specialist DM. If only.

Yep, I agree with this. I'd be absolutely gutted, but I know it's gonna happen eventually with him.

It’s a lovely idea but it can’t happen

Barnes 100% won't play until he's able to. He'll be fine. Wilson and Willock seem to get injured getting out of bed.

Tielemans is probably the least suited midfielder in the world for our system. I get your overall point isn't about that, just wanted to say it

Muto Gone on to great things.

I meant in his career

I think we were pretty confident of Neto in summer, but I get the feeling lack of CL might prevent that.

If you sell a £200m player you'd find it hard to make a loss, surely? Unless you're handing out crazy contracts.

Mainly plays right wing.

I like the look of Crysencio Summerville but he's very strongly linked with a move to Villa.

So signing the best players is always going to be classed as vanity for us. I'm not sure it's a negative.

Have I read this wrong? Real Madrid signing the best young player in the world was a vanity signing?

You can’t compare him to those though, Wilson’s been absolutely class for us, injuries aside. Those 3 were shite.

Think he prefers that role

I doubt we had massive plans to play him this season anyway. 3rd choice left back, one to bring through slowly. Actually planning for the future like a proper club.

Think they're hoping he'll be back for the Sunderland game. Willock still a couple of weeks away, Barnes and Wilson likely to be out all month still.

After he nearly had both legs brutally smashed? How could he?

2 weeks ago - "Dubravka never makes a save" Now - "Dubravka only saves the ones you'd expect, and even then he does that badly"
