WHAT A GOAL JOELINTON GOD

Lesser spotted Manquillo

Burn and the coaching staff clearly laughing at the funny goals tbh lol

AHAHAHAHAHA what a goal lol

FFS got what we deserved

I am not sure his relative width concept (if i understand it properly, may well not!) would yet fly in this league, there's too much speed and width still (it is noticeable that Guardiola very consistently has been winning leagues with wide attackers who stay wide) it would end up with some hefty losses on the counter. I dunno Nagelsmann shouldn't be dismissed he has achieved good things but like Klopp had 7 years at Mainz, Guardiola had time with Barca B, can't help but feel he will get once more chance with an elite team before he has to retreat and rebuild his reputation somewhere like Spurs. Going to chelsea will fast forward that.

I give anthony slightly more benefit of the doubt that plenty players have taken a while to show full potential in a new league, there is significant possible improvement, but right now looks pretty crap tbh

Well not unfair and think you're right actually Murdyk and Fernandez and the like could work under a super technical manager, they have just kinda bought badly and disperately, they lack important parts of a functioning team. I was not thinking quite straight

Was never going to work, sorry managing a big ego squad like chelsea is a different job than managing an underdog side with no expectations. This is not to diminish doing the latter, as embarassing as it must be for him how great brighton have been since he left he did a great job. No doubt Potter has fantastic attributes but I don't think there is a more difficult dressing room traditionally than the chelsea one, and it stays as such due to the ludicrous spending policy. IF they wanted to become a team focusing on playing style they should have given potter a sympathetic sporting director who will work with him on targets and built a team around him, rather than super stars. But that doesn't bring in the marketable money. They will bring in Naglesman i suspect who will do the same thing as with bayern in that do ok for a while then lose the dressing room, cos thats what dressing rooms at these clubs do, they have won everything, the manager who comes in hasn't so why should they listen to him? Zidane would be a sensible shout for them but doubt he'd come

I guess long run Nagelsman to Chelsea and Potter to Spurs? Feels about right. Rodgers will end up at west ham

He calls Schar, and i quote, "not sexy" Ban that youtube channel.

i love weekends like this, suddenly all week i will listen to every fucking podcast even the ones i hate

Poor froggy

kept trying, he's been guilty of his head dropping in the past, but he kept at it and got an assist. Very good.

back from pub Pope - 8 - mainly for not falling asleep Burn - 8 - little bit concerned in first half that he'd get himself booked for clattering anthony but it never happened Botman - 8 - Maybe would be higher if he had anything to do Schar - 8 - he will get another goal soon! Trippier - 8 - Near 90th minute he sprinted and dispossessed man u and started a counter attack, was involved in a lot of our buildup in first half (can't give defence lower than 8 really cos they all did their jobs properly, can't go higher cos damn didn't have much to do Longstaff - 8 - Would have been higher but for some terrible finishing Bruno - 9 - Do wonder if Casemiro would have put him off his game much, but absolutely dominated their midfield imo Willock - 8 - Would have maybe been a 7 but for the goal, thought he struggled a little to make an impact was doing a lot of the pressuring too, endless energy Murphy - 7 Ran a lot, did a lot, but still lacks end product sadly, still good game Isak - 9 - He is mint, adds so much ASM - 8 - All our most dangerous play came from him, he'd be lower if they ever botheredf to attack us I guess, he wasnt perfect at all but he kept trying, not something that has always been the case and finally his effort was rewarded with an assist, a header of all things Magnificent team performance. Subs all get 8 too lol can't criticise anyone!

GET THE FUCK IN

One day fabian you will score one of those, one day

bruno got motm, a few deserved it, but he is best midfielder on pitch by a country mile

WILSON YOU SHAGGER

You/re right howe out

I'd be tempted isak for motm, his leading the line hold up play etc has been top class. Equally their midfield has done nothing so quiety longstaff and bruno have been immense

"mutual consent"

Fucking close there

FFS willock got to practise those a hundred times a week!

Its never a pen like, Schar is diving head first forward so his head is low, it's hardly a high boot
