Wissa, Ramsey and Elanga all concern me tbh - that’s a lot of money spent on very little return

That’s one thing - our play is too predictable - you know when we have the ball what the play is going to be, Hall inverts, Gordon stays wide, Barnes has it, Trippier makes an attempt to overlap - we are actually better when Miley is RB The midfield plays like 3 individuals - there’s no chemistry between them - they all do their own things - Joe links to the left - Bruno to the right and Tonali just runs around Woltermade is always in the wrong position

Given that he’s a wide forward his output has to be better - one defence, the way we play doesn’t help him The only pass he gets is when Hall is invented inside and he’s then out wide and nowhere near the opponents box - he isn’t going to provide any output from there I can’t remember a time when he made an inside run and we threaded a through ball to him

Another shocking performance from this guy

He’s way too loyal is EH - that’s a massive weakness he has - this is as high as he’ll get in his career

What positives have you seen away from home? Our circa 11th away match of the season. What has he done that makes you think we are into something? Can you tell me what you’ve seen him do tactically? I’m struggling to find many positives …

Not changed anything in 6 months - same shit, different opponent

That’s as bad as it gets - oh wait, I’ve seen this before This is all on EH - that’s his team out there, his game plan, his signings, his tactics

What was the plan today “Thought we were good is spells, really controlled the game, just not clinical as we would have liked” Same bollocks

Wissa has been dogshit £55m my arse

Tonali is completely off it

Take Tonali off - liability

We are even worse this half

Simply not good enough that first half

Everything is so patterned from us outside the box - no room for any flair or individual creativity

Everything decent until the final 3rd

The fact that Barnes is allowed to roam and play his way lessens the blow for me

That kit is as good as it gets - all I think of is Ginola with a bandage on his hand scoring v Sheff Weds If ever a kit suited a player

More goals than Isak this season

He’s always played in a 2 - but this is the first season he’s played as a 9’for club and country - there are loads of positives in his games and areas to improve - that’s what excites me - and it’s up to us to build a team to suit his game …

They can complain about the offside goal until the cows come home - I’ll never forget the Tiote goal we had disallowed

Those who say he isn’t the right fit

He’s been here circa 6 months - carried the load for the first 4 months then becomes a regular starter for Germany to boot - first time he’s not had a winter break - fixtures been brutal - intensity of the football he has never experienced I’m not sure what else he can do Yes there’s aspects he’ll improve on but people can’t write him off after half a season like - that’s crazy - he has a very good future here imo

His lack of first touch is a massive flaw

Elanga has no first touch
