Would love for Trippier to stop calling players to come deep to get the ball or point to pass the ball backwards all the time Work harder to make yourselves available in space and play the ball towards their goal please.

Trippier entering the field hopping on one leg. Worrying.

I have no statistics to back this claim up, but I am certain the number of incorrect decisions without and with VAR aren't even remotely comparable.

I almost want them to scrap VAR just to see the reactions of some of the people on here who are so opposed to it when we conceede yet another incorrectly judged offside, or a blatant handball leading to goal against us. VAR isn't the issue. It's a really good tool used by cunts and imbeciles.

Think it's more a case of shouldn't play yet, but can in case of emergency.

Pope wasn't fit to dive for the ball just a couple of weeks ago guys Lets throw him in for arguably the most important game of the season with 0 match sharpness sure.

Wow Howe so unexpected you nearly had us with Isak there

It was against Blyth Town, but he was one of those "head and shoulder above anyone else" type of player yesterday. He's not playing at a level that is truly challenging to him unless yesterday was him having a particularly good day.

Alfie playing like Foden on speed against this lot.

Excellent work by Alfie to create that goal. Finding space to receive the pass, perfect weighted pass to play through our striker.

Scary how ginger their #3 is

There's just no way, NO WAY, that Isak doesn't start tomorrow. Despite all our injury woes this season I can't believe people are starting to fall for this ruse by Howe If it had been a new injury rather than a continuation of his illness, which he's already played through once, I'd believe it...but there's just no way for such an important game that he doesn't start unless he's absolutely shattered. He's already played through injuries multiple times. A sniffle doesn't stop him.

Since Isak was ill but still started against Brighton I am certain he will start against Man Utd regardless of whether he's in condition to train today or not. Not even ETH will fall for that one

Fantastic talent ruined by injuries. He's only had one (recorded) injury since then, but he was basically out with major injuries from 3rd November 2014 to 30th June 2017. Was not aware he was at the club up until January 2021.

Your points still stands, but Kamara was a free transfer too and is by all accounts on the same wages as Tielemans already.

I'm conflicted. It's such an important game. Not sure if it's best to start our players who aren't match fit but of better quality than the alternatives, or the players that are in best shape who's performed well lately. Over to you Howe.

He could be good, but the highlights didn't convince me. It's difficult to make "highlights" for defenders so I get they may go for a lot of clips of the defenders equivalent to the keepers tv save.

Looks like a young Paul Dummet with his marauding emergency tackles and hopeful hoofs under no pressure. A bit worrying when the highlights are average

Perfect result really. Keeps Arsenal in the title race, keeps Man Utd behind us, but Man Utd will be fairly satisfied if this stays 0-1 which means ETH stays, and in true ETH fashion they will go out on Wednesday thinking they can go down a few % in effort while maintaining the same level of performance.

Liverpool when they took the CL spot from Everton? Or was that 3rd/4th?

I mean...any player subbed off could potentially have turned 1 point into 3 He was pants yesterday regardless of how many goals he's scored earlier this season. We looked better after he went off.

Not a position we lack depth in, but Arblaster at Sheffield United looks like a real talent.

Good today. Decent starting team. Changed things early enough. When he did, there was good reasons to take Isak off. Didn't kill the momentum nor the crowd.

Forest the mentally weakest team in the league by far Didn't get upset at all. Fully expected them to crumble.
