During Howes pregame interview today I would think we will know more.

I heard peg, wheres this at?

I've heard rumours that it's an MCL injury which is between 2 to 10 weeks depending on the severity of the injury. A grade 1 MCL would be the best hope right now as he'd be back the same time as Ramsey and Wissa.

We didn't really deserve to win that game but decisions like that are what change games, just look at Chlesea who were all over Brighton until the sending off. Genuinely feel aggrieved the way the refereeing went, especially the handball shout, if the rules state that it wasn't handball because of some meaningless clip of the shin (which is indecipherable btw) then the rules are wrong, his hand was as high as it could be to prevent the cross, feels like a total stitch up. However, I won't be taking to Twitter to comment on every Arsenal post for the next 6 months.

About as nailed on "must win" game as you can get at this stage of the competition. We should have too much for them.

It was tough to take, we were resilient against a better opposition, much the same way we took Barcelona to the wire, we're not at that level yet but we've proven we can give them a game. Arsenal deserved the win on the balance of play but we almost got the ugly win we fought tooth and nail for and I find it hard to blame the players for not quite being good enough. We will bounce back but it was a hard pill to swallow, there was no lack of effort there, just the quality that Arsenal have in players like Rice and Eze just outshone us and there's no shame in that, we all want to win every game. There's scope for us to be better and we will be, we're still finding our feet after a transformative change to our team, as much as I hate to admit it, the loss of Isak has been a big blow and we have to figure out how to move on without him, he was our equaliser.

One of the most important players in our squad, losing him for any extended amount of time would be a huge loss, praying it's not as bad as it looks and he comes back soon.

We're only ever a win away from going on a strong run, Howe has shown us to be a slow burner at times and there's a lot of mitigating factors to the start of this season. Isak's pathetic behaviour rattled our pre-season and the cartel hoovering up all our targets prevented the early influx of players Howe wanted so we've had no real pre-season to gel. Couple that with injuries to Wissa and Ramsey and its clear to see why we are toothless but we've been resilient at the back. It will all come good, but it always feels like we're waiting for the next international break to catch a breath. This was always going to be a bit of a tough season with the usual suspects getting to spend unfettered amounts of cash and losing our best player, but Howe will make us better than the sum of our parts again, Woltemade will get up to speed and prove why we put so much faith in him and Wissa will come back and provide the goals that will elevate us up the league. We're just finding our feet in extenuating circumstances and I trust Howe to get it right, like he always does.

That was difficult to take, but on the balance of play probably deserved. Not the greatest start to a season but we're always one win away from going on a winning streak. Really need Wissa back ASAP and maybe it's time to give Ramsdale a run out. Let's look forward to Wednesday and USG, forget about this lot.

I want the scummiest, flukiest, most undeserving win possible, dodgy ref decision and all, either that or we absolutely flatten them, either will do for maximum impact.

Just seen his goal from yesterday, absolute belta

Pope Thiaw Botman Burn Murphy. Livramento Tonali Bruno. Joelinton Gordon Woltemade Sounds plausible

Fulham are 23/10 today too against a Villa side that have yet to win a game and have scored one single goal all season. A double on us and Fulham gets you just over 11/1

Can see Schar starting against USG

You're right, it's too early to make judgements on league position, for example we've had a tough set of fixtures to start and a severe lack of options up front and the likes of Palace and Sunderland aren't going to finish top 4. Having said that there's nothing to suggest, in the games I've watched you play, that things are going to get better, the centre of your midfield is powder puff and Sesko looks lost up front, maybe Cunha and MBuemo will hit some form but they can't carry the team alone. Amorim is poor, but he's just another symptom of the malaise at Manchester United.

He's definitely underestimated the impact Howe, Murphy and our fans had on his game here, Liverpool won't treat him like a king, he will never be their "main man" and the fans have already started to turn on him wanting to send him back. When Wissa is fit he will prove its our system that provides the goals for the striker.

Big Joe loves sticking it up the Arse and always rattles them

Almost a perfect day of football, Forest really let the side down

He's not had a good start to his Liverpool career, which is delicious and it's hard to pinpoint why so early on. However, he was the main man here with the team built to supply him in the right areas and play to his strengths, also there's the impact of having no preseason as he sulked his way to a move, maybe the big pond wasn't the best place to be Alex? £130m on Isak and £117m on Wirtz and both look turd for them right now and I love it. They were really poor today and I thoroughly enjoyed my hate watch experience.

Hopefully Man Utd put Sunderland to the sword next week, Amorim gets to keep his job and them lot get put in their place

Lads, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man United all lost, the footballing gods are not going to give us Sunderland too

Liverpool just got Liverpooled, can't wait to see the ironic tears of it being past the 6 minutes added time.

I still can't get over the fact that Salad handball wasn't given, you can clearly see the ball change direction
