Football isn't chess. His players are able to move as well at any time so they don't have to take pissing ages to take a goal kick. Salty tears. Nothing to do with refs not knowing the game. Keep crying your way to relegation Paul.

Cba to go into details of it in the match thread if you really, honestly don't understand what I mean Happy to take it elsewhere thougha after

We've got a bench we've paid nearly £200m for and Howe only has the faith to sub Barnes for Almiron.

Wish I knew sooner that it was allowed to obstruct keepers arms. Why do nobody else do this? Must be great on corners.

wat

Was kind of hoping we had made some subs before the goal. Can't see much happening until we're in the final 10 minutes now.

Looked like Wilson was holding the keepers arm down. Surely the reason why it was disallowed?

Lovely goal

Nee fucker wants to have a go.

Our 5 first headed clearances this half has gone straight to Brentford feet. Something to work on in training for sure

Did he? My livescore service says he didn't even come off the bench.

Brentfords high press is excellent tbf. Hopefully they won't be able to keep it up all game.

Eh? We've been the better side for the majority of the half now. Edit: nvm Thought you talked about the play, not the injury.

He will be at around the 60 minute mark.

Schar head injury. We'll go on to win this now. Knew something's been missing the last games.

Much better

We desperately need a goal to gain some confidence.

Don't think it would be 0-0 still if our players only played with 50% effort

Walking around in all seriousness with a bleached backwards slick wet look hair & goat beard like he's a coked up Dutch clubber from the turn of the century tells me everything I need to know about him.

First time in what must be 5 years or so that Wilson has had a long period without injury. Any guesses as to why that is? Besides, it's nice to play players like Isak in their best position while also having options on the bench and the possibility to keep them both fresh when we start getting 2 games a week soon. ....and if that frontline struggles to get a result - what do Howe do to change things up? I do think however that we should have a plan for when we are desperate for a goal where we have both Isak & Wilson as a front 2.

10+ years too late. On par with news article comment sections.

Just started my free trail with Amazon to binge watch the series. Dan Burn reading out the man in the arena before the cup final....fucking hell Dan what are you doing to me

Agree that he's not close to Joelinton's level when fit. If you watched the Brighton game in particular and thought how Joelinton performed was better than what Anderson would have if he had started...well...I wouldn't agree with that, to put it as nicely as I can

Not a single person has said this afaik. Of course he isn't....but he's better than a wounded Joelinton who hasn't been physically able to do what he's done so great for us the last 1.5 season. It doesn't bode well for recruitment within if Howe has more faith in theJoelinton we've seen so far this season, who if I read correctly wasn't in shape to train between the Liverpool and Brighton game, than an Anderson who's done everything that's been asked of him, performed well in pre-season and then some.
