Didn’t see the game but was a bit perplexed by the line up, if Isak wasn’t fit again then wasn’t the play Gordon through the middle and you start Barnes? Is Barnes injured too? Maybe it’s clutching at straws and it’s just one of those we have to take on the chin but I think this season we’ve had a few too many of those. Brighton showing up against us and rolling over vs Chelsea is typical as well mind

Can’t get the ball out to him when he’s warming the bench mind. I feel for Howe because us being cute in the last transfer window is one of the reasons why we’ve suffered this much.

Literally stonewall pen ignored, because Manchester red.

Aye, it actually makes a lot of sense. Pope isn’t getting younger and has popped his shoulder twice. if we see no good keepers coming up getting a top keeper now is absolutely the play.

Fair enough

By what metric do we have one of the best stadiums in the world? Genuinely curious.

The match was going on and the manager is arguing with a fan? Not a good look at all.

No chance.

Gutted we play 3 days after I leave Japan.

I wonder if they essentially cap the amount of games members can attend so everyone gets to go basically.

Absolutely we have a much better case than they do. But it seems we are going to go with a refurb which would be less appealing for any external investment

Land value is much less in the north easy so it’s a much less potent trick.

It’s one of the many issues with FFP, these assets were accrued before FFP was a thing so they are basically zero cost. It’s like selling an academy player

If he has the tax payer paying for his stadium whilst he continues to rack up billions you might want to reassess who the actual plebs are.

Another tax payer funded stadium in Manchester would be a kick in the teeth for the rest of the country.

We have two away games and have been ropey away all season.

Especially given the owner is a fucking tax exile, it’s extraordinary levels of arrogance.

Fingers crossed, he’s great but unreliable and we can’t afford to carry him.

We had about 10 minutes in the second half where we pushed Bruno up to be an 8, and it was truly tragic, we looked so turgid the moment we did it, we really struggle to progress the ball which makes a lot of sense given we were missing 3 of our best progressors from deep.

He said it was some tightness and not really an injury.

We didn’t have the luxury of resting out best player so it’s a mistake for me.

Fucking hell this is tense.

Any idea why he’s missing?

Beth isn’t worth responding too. If we follow the logic we should never buy centre backs because Boumsong was a poor buy etc.
