imo Miley is better off learning from our coaching staff than going out on loan now. He's had his first taste of Prem football and looks technically ready already - it's now just about doing the physical and tactical work that our coaches are so keen on to get players ready for the first team.

let's goooooo

Barkley has done well this season but long term I think we'd be better off developing Anderson/Miley. It's the sort of short-sighted signing I'd expect from a Man U/Everton/other badly run football club.

proper big baby attention seeking weirdo behaviour from Ange to start making comments like "the last 48 hours have revealed a lot" without actually saying what he means by that.

that pass from Foden, fuck me

I wonder whether we’d be able to get Ortega from City, you know. Absolutely fantastic keeper imo, and from what I’ve seen is pretty much as good as Ederson with the ball too.

that’s hilarious from Casemiro, like. He couldn’t look less arsed

Arsenal have zero threat in behind which is allowing Evans and Casemiro to play much higher (thus keeping the lines much more compact) than they should be able to. Pretty annoying to watch - practically any striker who can run in behind would be creating loads of opportunities. edit: that’ll do tho

gerrin. Been coming from CHO.

feel like I say this nearly every week but Murillo is really good

has the hype gone to Mainoo’s head btw? Just strolling about doing nowt

oh man I really hope Casemiro is playing CB against us

with 0.54 assists per 90 minutes played, he is the highest of all premier league wingers/attacking mids this season.

I’m not really convinced that selling him helps us with ffp tbh? We’d have to replace him and it would cost £30m+ to get someone who can contribute as much as he does.

it’s amazing how much better he looks physically compared to the start of the season more than anything imo.

Bruno: …and I took that personally.

this guy is my football knowledge litmus test

this Ritchie performance is proper soccer aid competition winner material

haha, come off it ref

Murphy is a classic 4-4-2 winger, who knew

This is a really good pressing team. Hope that's how we approach it. When Wilson and Isak played together in the last match they both were fluid in swapping between #9 and a more withdrawn role. Callum was dropping deeper just as much as Isak was.

Be a massive shame for him if he misses the Euros as a result, like. Might have been his last tournament.

their new ownership seems incredibly infantile

only halfway through it, but it's clear from match cam that Anderson brings leadership qualities. He's constantly trying to encourage.

Mbuemo would be a good fit for a direct Almirón replacement depending on the fee, but I think we need a wide option with more guile and creativity to be honest. Someone who can play between lines and thread passes for Isak/Gordon/Barnes. Not Bernardo Silva himself obviously but that kind of profile is something we're missing.
