Just isn’t a LB. Get him back in at LCB in place of Botman after his ban

Lazy as fuck, shocking mentality shown, especially on their last goal

Murphy has to be up there in the top ten worst at physical duels in the league right? He just lets himself get walked all over every 50-50

Sick to fucking death of Pope kicking it out, get him out the side

Pope in the wrong position there, awful goal to concede

Schade throwing himself to the ground, absolutely conned that

Trippier’s passing from defensive positions is fucking shocking nowadays

Can’t believe how bad our ability is to progress the ball. Desperately need Hall and Tino back, it’s painful to watch. We turn the ball over anytime there’s any kind of press on us from any team

Really poor play from Ramsey twice there

He’s absolutely class, going to be perfect for us long term. Right now, he’s exhausted and working in a system that doesn’t suit him. Get more players in the team that know how to move and are more comfortable on the ball in the wings and full back positions and we’re absolutely made

I’d like to speak a lawyer about whether there’s a criminal charge that could be brought against him. Pre-nonce behaviour feels like a sure bet

Can’t get over how little football has been played here. Feel like I’ve watched about ten mins max of football

You have to wonder if Pope’s placing bets on the number of thrown ins per match like

Huge credit to Barnes there, great play to set us off, even better play to get a shot off in space against multiple defenders and score. LW is his

The only consistent element to our play is we look fucking terrified of the ball and want rid of it as soon as possible

Just get him off man

Schade running 50 yards through the middle of the pitch…

Our care of the ball across the pitch is shocking. It’s far and away our biggest issue. Cannot hold onto the ball at all apart from spraying around nothing passes

Looks like something out of an Umbrella Corps lab

That’s Joelinton nowadays defensively, mistimes a pass and then just bulldozes into someone to give away a free kick. In the past he’d have managed to win it back fairly

Anyone got the stats on how much we turnover possession from Pope kicking it out over other keepers in the league?

Jow hits the deck after most contact tackles these days. His body is a wreck

We have moved on regarding Trafford. The problem is, he will also move on if he doesn’t get enough game time. It’s clear from the comments coming out of his camp and the moves that he’s made so far that he wants to be the number 1 keeper at a premier league club right now

The wettest cunts out there, their weak and desperate mentality will do for them as it always does

That’s pretty flawed analysis @Gottlob. Hall was recovering from an injury and wasn’t anywhere near match fit when the season started. Then, when he got to the point of being match fit he got a hamstring injury that’s kept him out until the other day. Tino is a first choice full back, that’s not in question. Hall played as first choice left back for the vast majority of last season. Trippier will be phased out very soon in favour of Tino when he recovers from his injury. Left-back should be Hall’s as soon as he’s match fit but we know Howe has basically never dropped Burn if he’s fit. So, the question I think that will come up from tomorrow onwards is - Does Howe drop Burn and play Hall at LB, does he drop Botman, play Burn at LCB and Hall at LB or does he try to play them all in a 5 or a 3 with more advanced wing backs. Tomorrow, I personally think he’ll play Burn at LB and Botman at LCB and Hall will be on the bench. However, there’s absolutely no way Hall can be kept out of the side after tomorrow’s match unless it’s injury related
