If Raphinha is genuinely the level we're operating at this summer, be still my throbbing member.

Loved that photo as well, Lascelles basically played a half last season due to Schär’s weekly concussion injury. Not sure I’ve looked forward to a game as much as this, even Spurs.

Aye Extra motivated, apparently.

And he’s Canadian.

"Referee: Chris Kavanagh - second appointment of the season involving us for the Greater Manchester official, following the 2-1 victory at Brentford."

Too many touches, for me, which is a bit of a hallmark of a player lacking confidence and/or quick decision making.

But they’re all just dead busy and focused man, can’t be sparing any energy on being polite to little kids that idolise them. Legitimately, the only thing I can think of as any sort of defence is that they’ve all suffered too many instances of weird cunt adults using their kids/kids as bait to prompt engagement that leads to inevitable requests for multiple autographs and whatever else. So now it’s easier to just blank everyone all the time to avoid that.

Nothing specific other than “someone needed to be sacrificed”. Because the intention was to move Isak left, it could only really be Gordon with how Murphy has played on the right of late. Thought it was the right call at the time and it was fully vindicated in the second half.

Let them crack on if that is how they still want to operate, all the better for us.

Very, very worrying.

Lovely.

What are your thoughts on Opta’s Sewpa Dewpa Compewta? (Or any bookmaker anywhere’s predictive model?)

Is this real life?

I fucking hate Spurs, man, utter failures.

Christ man, this is here for them.

2-1 or 3-2

Will it matter when we’re 3 goals ahead by HT?

Not quite.

You wouldn’t start him after that?

Howay Spurs, these can’t defend for shit.

Him and Isak have some chemistry, mind. Seem to love playing together.

Isak is life. Can we please start him and Wilson now? Gasping to see it when they’re both fresh.

Quality today, I thought. Voice absolutely gone again .

HOWAY
