We must have the two most unfit centre half's in the league with all there lazy pulls and sticking a leg in resulting in soft yellows.

Not bad were in it. Missed the first 20 minutes But we look to have a threat atleast just wish the ref would blow once in a while when Barnes is getting manhandled.

Ask the titanic

Or he won't play unless 100% that was how sturridge ended up been off all the injuries. It mentally takes it's toll.

If we can find the target. 😂

One game is that it? What about the rest over the last ten month. Fulham Bournemouth we never pressed.

Wouldn't mind us trying that formation and sticking with it.

Just play Barnes rightwing all the time and switch him around with gordon now and again. It's really not that difficult like. Let Murphy and miggy be subs for tired legs.

I said away from home.

Not having that like. The last two matches the opposition have basically stuck there whole team behind the ball and went break us down. That's why we've dominated these games, we still play the same way as the end of last season barely a press if any away from home. massive gaps for the opposition to get one on one with our centrebacks still over reliant on schar and bruno for any creativity and when gordon ain't firing we are innefective at scoring goals and supplying isak.

When chasing a game you have to try things though.

He seems to setup his 4-3-3 and player selection and hope results will improve. Very stubborn. in games that are getting away from us you never see him play orthodox wingers miggy left gordon right to stretch there defence. When we need a goal he'd rather bring on a Longstaff or a defender instead of giving the forward a chance. Weird decisions in my opinion.

How's Guehi looked today? Elanga aswell?

Just with us so reluctant to let him leave. I thought we might have had a clause in of some sort.

I wonder if we have a buy back clause in Anderson s contract?

Today I think Barnes for Murphy and see how it goes for ten minutes then willy for bruno if he was knackered. Putting us into a 442 and I think we might of atleast drew. Howe seems to go round the houses with his subs.

Mclaren vibes if we play like that all season we'll be alright.

He's creative can pick a pass aswell. And is clinical in front of goal. Gordon isn't in form Barnes is. my worry is by benching Barnes when it's time to get games again his form may of gone.

If bruno was gonna be taking off at some point because of arriving back late from international duty. Then taking off tonali is even more baffling. I think there'll be a few unhappy players in the squad this year because of there treatment. Trippier stripped of captaincy, Tonali never gets a full ninety Barnes our top scorer keeps getting dropped for dross, Osula watching every man and his dog get used before he gets a chance. Miggy who hasn't featured at all until the last few games.

Mitchell should pull a Billy beane and flog these Longstaffs Murphys and almirons so howe has no other choice but to play his best players. 😂

Tonali for Milan was a deadball specialist now he can't get a look in. Why?

Barnes should be starting every game now like. Murphy and almiron should be used for injuries or tiredness. You'd think we had world class wingers playing the way he keeps getting benched.

We have a knackered Wilson a not sharp isak a poor finisher in gordon, and an undercooked osula because he won't use him great squad management eddie lad.

Willy and Barnes see if it works if the other two aren't doing it.

He's quite happy to watch isak and gordon squander chances and possession all game rather than change it up and swap like for like. He'd rather take hall off another creative player off for a striker when tino could of come off.
