Can't see Chris Wood happening but you can't tell me you wouldn't have him over Gayle If we're signing 2 strikers this window, I wouldn't mind him being the secondary option.

There was a chunk of his time here where he contributed massively to our attacking play - that was literally the only thing going for him. Not goals. Now he's contributing fuck all and just runs around like a headless chicken. However you want to sugar coat this one - he's been dogshit. Could have, should have, left foot, right foot, out of position, whatever man he's been here long enough to cast an opinion of him as a signing for this club - there has been more bad than good with him and he's really worth only half what we paid for him at best.

Wank. Can't defend him anymore, needs replaced immediately.

Second half totally out of ideas and he did fuck all of worth to change anything about it Eddie, if you weren't already fucking aware, Willock and Almiron are not players who you can rely on to score you goals and the sooner you fucking stop playing them altogether, the better. What an embarrassing result, abysmal.

Weekend wank ruined, cheers you useless shower of shit. Ended up watching wank instead.

Cantwell is quality, wanted him here ages ago and was surprised nobody took him last time Norwich got relegated

In hindsight probably should have worked things out with Ashley one way or another I think had the situation been different at Everton he would be doing better but I can't imagine by very much. Everton are rotten when a manager superior to Rafa finished midtable last season with them. Tells you everything you need to know.

Don't think Rafa will see out the season to be honest unless they have a very very solid transfer window and respectable end to the season The fans are done with him no doubt.

I remember reading a story earlier in this thread about two people giving him verbal abuse when he was out with his lass. I hope you two fucktards are eating humble pie and kiss the guy's feet and apologise. Obviously the criticism was well warranted amongst us fans online or at the game but to go up to someone during his time off and with his missus no less. Fuck off.

Love the fact he's winning headers, breaking play and being sharp enough to nick the ball off their players Funny how first game with this new management in charge we see this, just makes you wonder what the fuck were the clowns here beforehand were looking at in training. Surely they'd have noticed his abilities?

N'Golo Joelinton

So basically full strength

I was buzzing when I heard this news earlier, literally their MVP attacking threat and goal chance. For the money they are getting paid for it they are going from a proven entity important to them this season to God knows how much of that £42m into players they end up being off the mark about. Philips being long term injury as well, Leeds playing a risky game here.

Sure, if you enjoy listening to games on the radio every other week like we're still in the 60s

About as captain material as a Somali pirate Get the fuck out of the club you utter fucking donkey and shove your "We go again" up your useless incompetent midtable championship quality ass. Prick.

Clark throws game away against relegation rivals which can only mean we need to start him against Man City Nice one Eddie.

Makes no difference who they have there - besides Raphinha, Bamford and Philips they are a Championship squad.

Yes I get that as there is every chance of him pulling off a Moyes style turnaround at the right club, its just that his choice of club after us and certain other decisions have done him no favours

Rondon for Richarlison??

Give him a month of underwhelming games and maybe a standard Hayden red card and people will be saying we need Willock back in the first 11 The fact of the matter is these are shit and there's only so many seasons you can play Russian roulette with them until shit blows in your face. This season is looking like it just might be it.

If you look at Mourinho, a manager who has won more than Rafa, currently 8th in Serie A and still don't think some of these managers are not what they once were then I am not sure what to say Rafa is a case of what could have been that people are still romantic about. I love the guy and to a large extent still rate his ability but its clear the game now has fresher managers with fresher ideas.

An embarrassment beyond all embarrassments this guy is not only still here but captain of the team as well. Donkey isn't even the word.

Doubt many can, the improvement around us and our degradation (from what was always mostly crap anyway) is the biggest issue here. Defensively we just are not PL quality at all and this is even with Schar and Fernandes playing. It's like going from worst to third worst at best and hoping things turn in our favour. I still think its too early days for anyone to write him off but the notion of getting the most out of the squads can only go so far when your back players are the worst in the league.

We've let go games that we could have won or got more from based on these nonsense decisions. Anyone knows that our best pairing is Schar and Fernandes. All this Shelvey, Joelinton and "positive approach" + good PR crap means fuck all if you handicap yourself in this manner.
