Necta ball from Miley there.

Not been able to get Isak involved at all. Barely had a touch of the ball.

Aye; Gordon, Isak, Barnes, Almiron and probably Willock are the only players in the squad with genuine pace. Especially now Maxi's gone.

All of the top PL sides do, mind. Man Utd aside atm maybe. Sides in pots 1 and 2 of the CL will as well.

I agree as well but feel that the next main CB we buy will, hopefully anyway, be Schär's long term successor. So it'll be a right footed Botman with pace essentially that we look for but the fee that would take would be a FFP-affecting one you'd think.

Proactive from Miggy there, taking his man on and trying to put a cross in. Needs to do that more.

Too easily cut open there like. As defensively good as we were last season we only had 2 clean sheets from February until the end of the season. We also only won 1 away match last season where we kept a clean sheet. Been something leaky about the backline for a bit, as daft as it sounds given they were the joint best defence in the league last season.

Challeeeeeennnnnnge Tripps.

Think this is the level that lads his age have to show if they're going to make it at PL level tbh. But have been very impressed every time I've seen him.

Finding loads of space with the switch crossfield ball. On both sides.

Aye. Christ.

Some ground that, mind.

If that roll on deodorant nappa'd spenk Tim Howard is on co-comms again I'm necking this pint and going straight to bed.

Wasn't going to bother with tonight. Then saw the starting lineup. Poured myself a pint and am sat up waiting for kick off. Got to be up at 9am.

That was apparently in January 2022, not January just gone. Was he not still injured when that happened anyway? Can't remember. Best for all parties if he moves on.

Hope not. Even if they do they'll have to play the winners of PSV v Sturm Graz or Dnipro-1/Panathinaikos v Marseille in a play off round.

Impressed by him. If you're not standing out at 17, 18 alongside PL players you've no real chance of making it at the top. He is. Got more faith in him making it at the top level than any of our academy lads from the last decade or so. Do not want him sent out on loan. He'll get minutes here.

A Joelinton card. It's good to have football back.

Buendia clearly still fewmin about the Belgrano being torpedoed.

Blatant pen. Hope the ref goes bankrupt having to pay for life saving medical treatment.

Lascelles spraying baaaals about likes he's Schär what is Eddie Howe cooking?

This formation

Fucking necta, that tall Swedish man.

Someone drive a hearse on the pitch.
