If you're including January business, ie Gordon, in last season's squad, you should also probably remove Wood and Shelvey.

Was briefly a co-commentator on BT Sport for Serie A coincidentally

Can only assume Murphy's not ready, thought he'd have been a cert to come on.

Gibbs-White should be off there.

Think the Chronicle were saying that him and Barnes are in contention for Luton.

I dunno, we're finding lots of gaps in the channels. Isak's nearly been in twice.

Adam Wharton is having a medical at Palace currently and won't feature if all goes to plan

Don't think it's a coincidence that he's starting to get more minutes as the schedule has begun to ease and the squad is getting more time to train. He'll start to feature more prominently moving forwards, I think.

Absolute sickener. But the performance was so much better than I was expecting. Absolutely no reason why we can't go to Villa and get something - particularly with 2 week's rest.

That's an outrageous goal to be fair.

This has more similarities with last year's 3-3 than the this season's return fixture so far.

Almiron has his obvious limitations but he is probably the best pressing outlet we have.

ISAAAAAAK

Almiron's used his right foot more in the last 2 games than he has in the last 4 years (or however long it's been).

Boneheaded foul from Ballard. Gordon was going nowhere.

ALMIRON RIGHT FOOT KLAXON

As much as I gave Miley grief for pressing too high, Longstaff's now doing the same thing. Can only assume it's tactical.

Miley's pushing way too high.

Agree. But for those who think our fans or the protest movements have been put to shame by today's events, I just think the circumstances aren't particularly comparable. A drastic simplification but Man Utd have been fleeced by the Glazers for years - to this eye, it's taken the enforced cessation of a club to an absolute aberration of a league to properly break the camel's back, and the context of the pandemic makes this sort of protest suddenly all the more possible.

Do think it's probably considerably easier to storm a pitch in a pandemic with the swathes of casual gamegoers - the 'support the team, not the regime' lot if you will' - predominantly back at home mind. Less police presence, no opposition etc etc.

It's not whataboutery where the PL is concerned though, it's precedent. The PL can't turn a blind eye to Amnesty and whoever else in one instance and then block a takeover on their counsel in another. As you say, if the takeover was to be blocked, you'd assume the same rules on ownership would have to be applied across the board.

Basic push across goal? He put it through the defender's legs man, give him some credit

Blatant
