Ooooooooo it’s an equaliser, Harvey Barnes get in!

they did it loads against Brentford, refusing to show anything potentially controversial. Wish they’d refused to show the full game tbh

Play is over. It’s like when a keeper clatters the forward after he’s shot. Should be a pen but never given

He clipped his heels there no? Probably happy those kind of things stay with the on field decision overall though

faking injury then?

Was with you 100% until the last sentence. He has at least till the end of the season before the credit gets even close to low

Just checked we have 3 points less than this date last year. It was only when we dropped Tonali deeper that things improved. We were dreadful and turned things around on the training pitch. We don’t have the luxury of training pitch time atm which is compounded by the whole team learning a new playing style.

Not at Anfield

Last year we were hopeless and tactically clueless until we started that run of wins. Not sure when the run started though?

The ref has guessed there. VAR didnt show any contact

He was in a worse position this time last year. We were just as bad (probably worse) and didn’t have the CL campaign or the cup win to fall back on.

They’ll have a good season but the work comes in the summer when the reality of PSR hits. They either keep the squad together and give out big new contracts or sell and hope to have a similar hit rate again. Issue for both is they don’t have the income to support high wages and teams won’t sell to them on the cheap anymore. All it takes is a few expensive misses and they will be crippled by PSR for multiple seasons. As we have found out there are rules to stop upwards progression and status quo rules, their status quo is/was meant to be relegation.

8 game with 24 going into the next phase really is too many games. Should be 8 games and 16 or 6 games and 24.

Clearly signed based on his raw data attributes in the hope we could shape him into the footballer we wanted. However Isak moved the goalposts and changed the footballer we need and not sure Elanga fits the profile. His/our biggest hope is that Wissa returning gives our play a different dimension and a place for him in the team

Even though we don’t have an alternative I’d probably give him the weekend off. However Germany will then pick him and run him into the ground the following week

Not sure it’s a simple as that. Just like last week we’ve had a good result in a cup competition but again I thought we were rubbish. Short term and in isolation winning is great but the bigger picture is concerning.

Embarrassing afternoon, half time subs baffling

Won the World Cup for England in 66, got a statue outside

Isn’t that what building a squad is though? The issue is that our big 1st team signing has shown nothing so far.

Likewise, hell of a lot of money for what he’s shown so far. Just no idea what he’s meant to be? Will judge him in 12 months like all signings

As always he’s like a teenager having his first shag. Lots of energy for 30 seconds then disappointment

Is a badly trained AI model choosing these subs?

Stop fucking punching it!!

JUST PUT IT IN THE NET!!!!!!
