Say what you want, but we need to maintain standards and we should be expecting to win this one. The real question is whether the team shape gets fixed, the pressing and intensity returns and we start putting away our chances.

We also had a dodgy VAR call to deny Wilson his earlier goal so it balances out.

The only morbidly obese man who is immune to heart attacks.

Southgate needs to step aside. Let a manager with fresh ideas come in and let new players get a chance. As an England supporter there's no way we should be letting Scotland have Elliott or Barnes. Henderson's international career should have been over the second he went to the Saudi league to play kick about with Stevie G.

Sounds like he's had a good start since his loan.

Don't like all our players defecting to Scotland. Stop the madness.

Depends who we class the top brass as. Staveley/Ghodoussi/Jamie Reuben probably. The Saudis are still a question mark. The ambition they're showing to get the Saudi League up there is probably the same ambition they have for this club and we don't know how they would tolerate regression or "failure" this season.

Whilst I would have loved us to fill all the gaps in the squad we had clear constraints and we've obviously chosen to build this as a long term project rather than the Chelsea/Man City approach. Top 4 has probably clouded a lot of our judgements, but in a few years we'll have a squad that can compete.

Villa last season was a no credit performance.

Stop conceding loads of goals would be a start.

We're nearly at our total number of losses for last season and we're only 4 games in.

Is it finally the year?

Pope Livramento Schar Burn Trippier Bruno Tonali Joelinton Almiron Isak Gordon Surely?

So I guess the phrase "you can't polish a turd" is true. Or you can't sell a turd. Something like that.

Me right now:

Scotland?

I expect to see a much better effort and performance in this game. What the result will be is anyone's guess as they are a good team who's results can never really be predicted.

I'm still so angry about this. This one hits very different.

Unacceptable collapse. 1-0 up at home against ten men as a CL team to lose two goals like that and offer nothing going forward - completely unacceptable. Especially against these cultish cunts of all teams.

Wrong subs today. We lost all our edge when Gordon went off unfortunately.
