Typical Matecoglu goes defensive when we play them

Eh? He's been out of form for almost 2 years

It's been rumoured for a while he's an absolute bellend in training as well hasn't it?

I can understand the club in this situation - he could barely play 2 games back to back without having another setback and on top of that no guarantee he would able to play the level he was prior. I suspect it's being discussed internally regarding renewal.

As opposed to what? How much does a bog standard striker even set you back now days?

He's been great so far - I don't care what Como could've got him for. £30-£35M for the potential he's showing is a steal - hopefully he keeps it up.

It's delightful seeing Salah just shoot every single time rather than lay him off. You're not with Murphy anymore pal.

What a strike that is

I'd be absolutely fuming if we got £35M for him. He's worth double that.

Go sleep man

Hindsight is always 20/20 right

On top of that when he does return he'll be incredibly rusty and will need some time to get back to speed again, that's a lot of pressure on Nick

I don't think we're the bad guys in this situation to be honest.

I'm starting to believe the rumours to be honest and we're slowly being drip fed on setbacks

Only 4-5 games really. Could've been a lot worse.

This is the game where we start firing in the league. 3-0.

It's funny cause Bayern played Kane just behind the striker the other day - so you can tell he was a long term target for them. They must be seething. This guy's amazing. Honestly, the weight of the world on his shoulders and he's just cracked on, you can see how delighted he is when team mates score and he's smiling non stop. I'm delighted we signed him.

I'm confused - we paid £25M for Wood and sold him on for £15M, so how did we get the same price back for him?

I'd start Miley for this one - Joelinton has looked a yard off since the start of the season. Would've been ideal to rest Bruno as well but..

He did really well for the assist and wanted a goal, he's getting better.

It's refreshing seeing a team player who is not arsed about being the main characte - very surprised he didn't take one of the pens but that's the type of guy he is.

I think Bradford gave us a better game. These lot are pony.

He needed that. Great pen.

Still not impressed by Elanga yet - I expect more from him.

Is that Hall in midfield?
