  1. Thought he was brilliant today. His athleticism, his height and above all his technique remind me of Pogba. Mad he's 17 like.
  2. Sorry but this is shite. We have no idea how to break teams down. Lack of quality in our wingers
  3. Well, even if we're back in the CL next year, you get the feeling we might not be in the EL unless we're having/had a poor season. Think this team could have went on and done well in it this year - probably would have went in as second favourites. I know getting CL again would kick us on like, but winning the EL would be sweet after those Marseille, Lisbon, AZ capitulations. Feel like we've got history in it.
  4. I'm still sickened by this like, not for missing out on the last 16, but for throwing away Europa League chances. I want to see us win something like. A potential European final in Dublin? That would've worked. With 5th place potentially not likely to get CL, a loss on Tuesday means the rest of the season is fighting probably to qualify for the Europa League. Something we could have been in anyway if we hadn't have been daft at 1-1.
  5. So disappointing man. I'm all for going for it but I'd have been happy to let things play out at 1-1. The onus was entirely on Milan to come at us. We didn't have to commit that many men forward and get caught on the break. This one hurts like.
  6. It's big ask for him to save the second. Pope might have got a hand to it, but he's not Pope. Think he's finished and we won't see out the season with him like, regardless. I'm desperate to see Karius.
  7. Not sure what I think about us throwing everything at it at 1-1 when we were 3rd at that point. The Leao chance was a warning sign. Why over commit? Milan would have to come at us and worst case scenario, we drop into the EL and the journey continues. Feel like we've thrown it away like. AZ, Sporting Lisbon, Marseille...
  8. Death, taxes and Newcastle United breaking you're heart
  9. Someone mentioned that Mourinho link before didnt they? Would go against everything the current regime has done previously. Two pretty poor 6th place finishes with Roma. An EL final and an ECL win to his credit but hes been finished at the elite level for years. Stay well clear.
  10. He'd be an absolutely brilliant appointment for them. Hoping he's out of their reach.
  11. Honestly, how bad can Karius be? He's a fair bit younger and it's obvious Dubravka has declined with age. Perhaps could have done better for one of the cup final goals but otherwise there wasn't an issue. He's got plenty of experience too. . If he's up to it, he should start on Wednesday.
  12. Think the priorities will be Phillips in, another right winger and now a goalkeeper. I dont think we'll sign another centre half until the summer when we'll also probably sign another midfield player. The problem with signing another keeper is that you either go out and get a player whos better than Pope, which means spending big, or you get someone in the short term to replace Dubravka until the end of the season, but there really is limited options. It would have to be a loan or a free. There's no point in signing Ramsdale, if hes going to be relegated to the bench again after 6 months but theres no chance of Arsenal sending him out on loan. Dubravka has looked way off it in his first two games. He's barely played in the last two years and hes 35 in January. I really dont think we can see out the season relying on him im afraid.
  13. I expected a bit more resolve from us today. I know we're knackered but I wanted us to dig in a bit more and potentially catch them on the break but we sort of got caught in between sitting back and pressing high up the pitch and did neither. I think a lot of the chat round fatigue and players knowing we're down to our bare bones has got in their heads a bit. Isak looked fucked from the get go.
  14. Why give a clearly knackered Trippier five minutes rest like? Bizzare. Take him off earlier ffs
  15. We can't go the next five months with him in goal because he was decent a few years ago.
  16. Far too easy. Not even picking up runners for fucks sake
