You say this after every game now. Schar made one mistake the whole game and by the looks of the conversations after it he got a shout to leave it. In what sense is that any sign of deterioration?

No chance. There’s no way in a million years we finish above City. Just not going to happen.

Crazy. What a player. Consistently the standout midfielder now. Not that a high bar for that was set today.

55 year old John Burridge saves that.

It’s bewildering that this lot got out of the Championship. Absolutely abysmal from front to back.

@Kid Icarus moving right at an alarming rate.

That first touch and finish though. Never had a player this good who makes it look so easy.

Really need to find an alternative for Joelinton in games like this. Ball just bounces off him and he’s a walking card.

Alex McCarthy ffs. Just shoot on sight please.

I don’t agree. You have to play Schar as he’s the only one who can play RCB and he’s the only one of the 3 who can do the job he does on the ball.

Thankfully I don’t know who 3 and 5 are.

Yeah, this. Like Wood he’ll never be first choice here or even get much of a look in with everyone fit. Keep players like that around until someone is willing to pay over market value and get rid.

How does he seemingly still have a legion of fans? It’s hilarious to think Claire Balding was kissing his arse with her spoonfed shit on the BBC not so long back.

Was pretty obvious it was an old photo mind.

We need another 28 points for CL. I’m absolutely convinced that’ll do it. Realistically 8 wins and a few draws. It’s there for the taking now.

To be fair, Howe plays a 4-3-3 quite different to most in terms of no midfielder to play between the lines.

Tripps who hasn’t scored a free kick for club or country in going on 3 years.

I think we need him in some games and he’s obsolete in others. I don’t think that’s changed.

They have 6 points from 22 games. They’re an embarrassment. It shouldn’t be remotely tough for a team with our advantages.

We’ve played a lot of football recently and we don’t have the options off the bench to compensate. Really highlights the need to replace Almiron, Wilson etc.

Yeah we couldn’t have handpicked a better fixture tbh. No excuses, just win it and all good.

Oh yeah let’s fill our team with Championship garbage who had us 19th under Bruce while kissing Ashley’s arse every few months in the Chron instead of the ones who’ve got us to 4th. Stop posting rubbish man.

I don’t understand why we brought him on. Surely not for the set pieces?

Is this sarcasm? I genuinely cannot tell.

Apart from pointing and empty gestures he gives you nothing, mind.
