SUPERTOON

Huge goal away at Leeds that set us on this run ? Assist away against Southampton that led to a big 3 points ?

I’m not a fan of his at all and never have been, but he’s the only other midfielder we have that can pass a ball (Bruno aside).

Thankfully they need him with Eriksen being out

Agree, however it’s more of a disaster without an extra player being bought in.

Me, I said in my initial post you replied to that the signings we have made don’t improve our starting 11.

Absolutely dreading this now.

Disagree, if we pick our strongest 11, Gordon and Ashby don’t start. Not for me anyway, fair enough if they do for you.

I think an argument can be made that we haven’t strengthened our starting 11, obviously Gordon may prove me wrong but as it stands I don’t think we have.

Would agree on outgoings, both too good to turn down, incomings I would say jury still out, very much unproven at this stage and Gordon very much overpriced.

Can’t understand arsenal wanting Jorginho, he is the exact opposite of what they are all about as a team.

Leicester didn’t play the same style as we do though, they were sit back and counter, we are full throttle pressing. That makes a massive difference and means we are less likely to get away with not freshening up the team.

Yeah, Howe himself said we where light in midfield before Shelvey left so the club as well as us know it’s a risk to not replace him.

Yeah it was suggested last night that it would be either one leaving, not both.

It’s even more risky when you consider all 4 of our CM choices already start every week and have pretty much played every game this season.

But what I’m saying is we paid 40/45 million for Gordon, so Chelsea are fair enough asking for 50 million for Gallagher who is much more proven and still very young.

We kind of set that price when buying Gordon for 40-45.
