doesn’t make sense, because his development is being stunted. I just don’t think the club think he is worth the 30 mill and think they can spend it elsewhere.

the kid has just turned 19. Surely his parents are driving him to training?

I am sure there are triggers that need to be reached ie. 10 appearances for the obligation to kick in. Don’t think you can have a straight out obligation anymore to circumvent FFP.

I would assume with our FFP issues, there are doubts he is worth 30 mill and it could be better spent elsewhere. I raised this months ago.

We were class first half, didnt make our dominance count. Their first goal was against the run of play, but we gave way too much space to Leao. After this, we panicked as we knew we needed to win and showed naivety against a more experienced opponent at this level.

I cant think of any myself. Maybe Bruno Fernandes and Maddinson?

Surely Livramento should be playing on Son. Move him to right back.

Our away form is a concern. We couldn’t match Evertons intensity and deal with their direct style of play. Desperately need some options for rotation and subs. Poor from Trippier, but I think we can allow him a shitter for all the great games he’s had for us.

And Bruno in midfield. Our two most Important players

The only player of theirs I would have in my starting 11 is Bruno Fernandes. Yes hes a petulant c*** but he is elite.

Am I the only one that finds Laura Woods a bit annoying.

sticking with this and adding Livramento

I think it down to us, Villa and Spurs for 4th and 5th place. If we can get the likes of Botman, Willock, Longstaff, Wilson, Barnes and Anderson back within a couple of weeks, we look good. Spurs will struggle to pick up points without Maddinson and Villa will hit a sticky spot at some point.

he moved to Fulham. Thankfully we have a 5 day break. Should be enough to do the business within 70 minutes and then defend for our lives.

??

the shot was on target, looked like Obama would have saved it, just hit one of their defenders and we got a corner.

Barnes and Anderson?

No doubt our style of play is taxing on the players. But Gordon just had 2 weeks off and has played 2 game since. With a 4 day break compared to a 3 day break for Man U and a flight from Turkey, we should have a physical advantage.

Yeh his through balls were good, just Isak and once or twice Gordon were knackered and werent making runs.

Are we going to be knackered for Man Utd on Saturday? We have one days extra rest than them? I suppose we at least get Kraft and Richie back? Maybe Longstaff ..

I meant outside of Madrid, Bayern, Barca, Man City … They wouldn’t look out of place in any other club.

I feel like they were the one “big 6” team that we managed to beat the most T home during the dark Ashley era.

I would go as far as saying Isak, Bruno, Gordon, Trippier, Botman and Schar in current form would get a game for almost every team in the world.

Played and kept a draw against a few players that made it in Europe or played in the World Cup. They were a couple of years younger in the West Australian League; Trent Sainsbury ( 1 appearance for Inter Milan), Chris Herd (36 appearances for Aston Villa), Ryan Edwards (Reading, Hearts), Adam Taggart (World Cup for Australia), Josh Risdon (World Cup for Australia). I was pretty average though. Horrible first touch.

Expecting this? Pope Trippier. Lascelles. Schar. Livramento Willock Bruno Joelinton Almiron. Isak. Gordon
