0-0 at half time! Has any other team conceded 6 goals in one half in the Premier League? When Spurs scored 9 against Wigan it was only 1-0 at half time!

West Brom? Some shit house got a hat-trick. Was 3-1 when Smith came on.

Wilshere has only scored 7 league goals in his career.

No.

I take it you didn't see the game against them at SJP a few weeks ago.

Option to buy doesn't worry me at all. Obligation to buy would.

Not even a clearance though, was it? If we're thinking about the same thing, the overhead bicycle kick when the ball was likely going out for a throw-in around the half-way line Nah, ball was in the middle of the pitch and Butt cleared it by overhead kick out for a throw in near the half way line.

Seems to beat his man easily time and time again but can't cross to save his life.

Why haven't we signed anyone yet ?

Can't appeal yellows unless for mistaken identity.

Football doesn't work like that. So its just impossible to buy midfielders then? What midfielders did we get linked to in the summer that we didn't get? That's not the point - you're saying there is no point in having back up players in others positions because we didn't sign more central midfielders - it just doesn't work like that. In terms of CMs were linked with Lucas, Alex Pritchard, Marcos Llorente, Nabil Bentaleb, Will Hughes, Michael Carrick, Cheick N'Dpye - I am sure there were more.

I'm sure we would have it the right players were available and willing to come here at the right price. Absolute nonsense to suggest we didn't sign another winger and another central midfielder in the summer because we signed Murphy and Gamez.

Aye, for example great idea to play nobody up front if Gayle, Perez and Mitrovic are injured and/or suspended at the same time. May as well have a 100 man squad then Don't be fucking stupid.

Those players don't really exist (that are good enough at that age and willing to come here and not play on a regular basis). Part of thinking behind signing Gamez and Murphy is to add experience and leadership in the squad while also providing backup- we had a very young squad last season and Rafa clearer wanted a few older heads around the dressing room and training ground.

Another underwhelming signing if true. Rafa's certainly buys some s****. Who has Rafa bought that has been s*** exactly? Also Hogan has 13 goals in 23 games for a Brentford side who are 14th, thats hardly a bad return. - Murphy - Hanley - Diame - Gamez - Sels You need more than 11 players. Sels the only shit signing in there.

Has created as many chances as your mate Shelvey this season if a 3rd party, untrusted article is to believed. Is a chance created classed as any ball hoyed into the area though? No doubt. No.

That's just not true.

His corners were fine on Monday, we had three good chances from them and really should have put at least one of them away.

Good. He's shit.

That's exactly what happened.

Blackburn is I think not this one.
