I think we’ll sign another left back next summer and with Targett and Burn already there I think he’ll be moved on

A quality midfielder and another wing/attacker to either start or come off the bench would be ace.

I don’t think we were playing for a draw at Liverpool at all. Last night I’d agree we were far more pragmatic and were happy to turn the match into a scrappy affair.

If they lose the north London derby the pressure will start to mount.

I think a fully fit Isak (and/or a more mobile attacking left back) and we play more aggressive yesterday on the counter attack. With Arsenals attacking power Howe clearly didnt trust trust ASM ahead of Burn and it was more an all hands to the pumps plan rather than have a go at them like we did at Liverpool. It’ll be interesting to see how a fully fit Isak might change plans slightly moving forwards particularly away from home. I can see Isak getting far more game time than ASM and especially away from home. That said there’s all sorts of front 3 combinations moving forwards for different games.

I was 3200th in the queue or thereabouts but ticket bang in the middle of the Gallowgate ?

North London derby next weekend ?Hopefully Spurs win that to see him properly self destruct

Outrageous player

We struggle to influence the game form the bench, that needs to change

Or whatever they are able to within FFP

Yeah this one seems to make sense. Leverage for either Maddison or Tielemans?

Is Tielemans a DM though, I’ve always thought he was more of a number 8 who can score goals?

Yeah it’s ridiculous

Signing Mendy makes perfect sense but still seems highly unlikely

It makes sense that he hasn’t looked quite as good as last year. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them bring a left back in if one becomes available

We’ll upgrade the midfield this window and next summer id imagine anyway but he’ll still be a useful squad member.

Spot on

On another day we put those chances away but as more teams do this to us at home we’ll need better players to carve open chances and put them away. Maddison is basically the ideal type of player for this situation. An overlapping left full back would help too.

He’s very good off the ball doing all the unglamorous things to break things up (more away from home) but playing against a low block at home he’s pretty redundant as he doesn’t have the technical ability or finishing around and in the box.

His effort can’t be questioned he’s just very limited particularly how we play in our system

Spot on

Isak playing and that almost certainly goes in

Whether it’s ASM fully fit, Isak or another winger we need more potency down the left especially at home against teams playing like Leeds did.

Results like this highlight where we need to improve and we will?

Was that aimed at me? Lol I haven’t said everyone, I said some of the fan base will massively over react. Ofcourse it’s normal to be disappointed
