Good grief this is bad.

We're all at it today, first touch up in the air constantly.

Bruno the only one with an ounce of creativity in the front 6 (not Isak's job tbf). We look like a well coached side, but are sorely lacking in the final third. Not news.

Let's hear it then.

Manager's are probably reticent to rock the boat just before WC, but seeing Fred in there is a little upsetting. Does nothing better than our Joe.

Looking forward to seeing him with better quality around him. Looks a player.

Lack of cutting edge the only thing which is going to hurt us this season, had enough decent chances to win and about 15 set pieces. Can't fault the effort and we're still in a decent position, having played Man City & Liverpool already and some of our best players to come back. Oh, and we didn't lose. All good.

Leicester are down alongside Wolves in the 'imagine watching this every week' stakes.

Time for our boy Ayoze imo.

They look miles off some of their sides of the recent past. I know they've got injuries but they look like a team on a downward trajectory this season.

Heart the size of pea unfortunately. Everyone else gave everything then he comes on and shirks challenges, poor.

Would rather some kid I've never heard of from a cooler club tbh, someone like that Caicedo fella at Brighton.

All booting off now, this last week is gonna be a major dough splurge.

Stick him in with Bruno, Joe, Wilson etc and you see a different player, he clearly has football intelligence and a touch of quality. His first touch is nearly always spot on.

Awaiting the immortal words 'small tear' and '6-8 games'.

It's technique for the kicking more than anything, his body looks awkward. Immense today though in every other department. I actually think he read where Gundogan was trying to go for the first as well. Ended up being a bit of a lucky finish richocheting off a defender.

I take immense satisfaction from seeing Gerrard bomb. Has that aura about him where he thinks he's class just because he was a good player. Nah, you have to actually earn that mate.

We've wasted loads of promising positions. Miggy needs to just hit one when it opens up for him. Looking a little sluggish in midfield and we're missing Targett, all a bit lopsided.

Yeah, I saw they had 7 debutants today? That lack of synergy combined with trying to play out from the back was rough for them. I'm sure they'll be a different beast at home when they have time to gel.

My first home game since Spurs post takeover. Feels like we've progressed 10 years in 10 months, an absolute joy to watch the lads today.

His and Schar's mutual understanding is really good, the way one will arrive to sweep up after the other goes in for a tackle or header. Botman is gonna have a job displacing either of them imo.

Loving this.

Would rather Barnes.
