Will feel alright up until Ritchie and Clark are on the team sheet then I'll wish I wasn't able to watch

The PL would tell us no straight away anyway.

Konsa should be off. Not a genuine attempt to win the ball.

3. It was 3.

That's what I'd assume. Rangnick has had very little time with his squad and Rafa's issues aren't going to clear within 2 days. Obviously the trade off is if they're later we get signings for them but we don't even know if our window will be good yet.

Liked Dembele before he went there, know nothing since. We only have Gayle other than Wilson though so we'll need a gamble somewhere

This squad has losing drilled in to them. Its in their DNA now. They're complete and utter losers. The only way to fix this is to bring enough players in who don't have the previous regime drilled into them and hope it pulls round the rest.

See Rangnick is already complaining about the league Cup being a thing after 5 minutes. Can see where Klopp got it from indeed.

That's not as pricey as was first mentioned tbf

Fully convinced its all just for criminals to launder money.

Amazing how we seem to be avoiding it completely this year

If we aren't wanting to spend money why would we challenge the sponsorship rules? No need to have inflated deals if we just want to be Villa/Brighton anyway.

Even if your low key long term you have to spend now. Going down just means you lose a load of money for nowt.

Imagine if we have an Ashleyesque window

I'm hoping the working on the system rather than just game to game will now start to pay dividends.

Really wish we had a way not to play Ritchie.

Almiron can't speak English but it doesn't look like the back 4 talk anyway

There's no way he should get a new deal purely on his injury record. In this Ashley era maybe but not now.

I'm still not convinced by Lingard anyway. We've already seen the succesful loan star fail with Willock.

Welbeck's not been bad at Brighton from what I've seen. Its hardly some black mark against him anyway.

Think I'd honestly rather play that Bondswell at left back than Ritchie.

We'll have to. They'll be clinging onto their contracts as they'll never match what they're getting here in the champo, Jack Colback style.

Pathetic to bring Jeff on. Not because he's Jeff but what's the point? Give one of the two young lads a go for a bit. 10 minutes isn't going to ruin them.

Fwiw I think we'll end up looking much better but it'll just be too late.
