After a re-watch it's a joint Bruno-Burn award for MOTM imo. Maybe Burn edges it because of the goal. I didn't even realise how good Bruno was live. He ate them. Honestly they were all fucking mint. Even Barnes was running around and giving absolutely everything.

Also notable that we directed our press so that Quansah was their free man in build up and he was... not very good. Was a massive bonus for us that Trent was injured.

Dibling being able to show as much as he has in a generationally bad Southampton team is really impressive. He’s going to the top I think. For us the only question is if he could handle the move. He couldn’t even manage leaving Southampton to go to London.

watching the full game back. Our approach was interesting. Went really long and didn’t bother with any build up at all. Isak rarely won the header against VVD but we won the second ball the vast majority of the time because the whole midfield 5 were just there. Barnes and Murph went really narrow from goal kicks. Bruno was up against Mac Allister and just completely dominated him every time

we never beat Liverpool, like. Never . But the last few years we’ve had a couple of performances that deserved a win but we didn’t get one over the line. That we finally got one yesterday is just pure poetry. Still can’t quite believe it.

he was dominating Virgil Van Dijk in the air when he went up front for the last 10 minutes, was ridiculous

he saved his best performance of the season today. Legend

not really one for superstitions but as soon as he got the call up it felt like this was written. An unbelievable performance. Club legend

Trips, man. Big game player.

I like the idea of Barnes up against Quansah and shooting against Kelleher

Beat Brentford and things look pretty ok for us actually

should've landed the plane on Wembley's pitch imo

3 poos this morning, had to go run 10k to calm down. Don't think I like football.

he's good at passing. Only left footed English centre back worth talking about as well which is obviously the difference maker.

be shocked if it was true, would be amazing.

Fernandes blaming Hojlund for not being in the path of his own poor control

this 1000 times. It's just completely arbitrary. Not even sure any of us would've known Alvarez (might have) touched the ball twice without VAR. It's just nonsense.

honestly was like watching pub league. Absolute dross from both sides.

this is just brainless stuff

could do with Isak making the ball stick once

think this gets disallowed for that Isak push

can’t understand why we aren’t getting more players forward. Isak is generally outnumbered 4 to 1 most of the time

some of this leaves you questioning what on earth we’ve been doing in training

other thing we could work on is just having Tino defend as part of a three like we did with Burn last season. Send Trippier further forward and let Joelinton link with Barnes on the left instead. West Ham have been happy for all of our play to come down the left (Tino most touches is not a coincidence - Potter is a decent coach) and it's been so bad.

think we’d improve with Targett on to be honest. We’re getting a lot of play down the left and Tino is so unnatural in the final third. Doesn’t want to run to the byline at all.
