He needs to get Champions League football for next season. If the board decide that they're unsure if they're on course for it I can easily see them sacking him. They're one of the ruthless clubs in the world when it comes to managers.

I don't understand how Tuchel is rated so highly I agree, but he's on the managerial merry-go-round, and now that Pochettino is employed, Allegri and Tuchel are the next two due to be linked with every struggling elite team.

Tuchel will win them their next honour when Lampard is sacked soon but they'll dislike him for not being a Chelsea man.

Yeah, I mentioned in the quoted comment that he has okay technique when striking a ball. That's all I can credit him with from what he's shown us.

City and Liverpool. Man United are in it imo. Best player in the league and the team's recent form make your lot very dangerous. Attention will rightly be on Liverpool and City which works nicely for Man United to just keep picking up points on the periphery. Game against Liverpool is potentially the biggest fixture between the two sides I can remember.

Bit hyperbolic, but generally yes, he was poor. I'm not so sure he will make it in the championship tbh, he has okay technique when it comes to striking a ball but nothing else. Can't run, pass, tackle, protect possession, play in tight spaces, carry the ball... basically all the attributes important for a central midfielder.

Title race this season is going to be mint.

Werner doesn't have the physicality for this league. And by that I'm not saying he has to be a Carroll or a Barnes, but even as a smaller forward you need to be able to compete and use your body intelligently. Think Aguero, Alexis, Lacazette... even Maupay. Werner is far too light weight and will be a flop if it's not addressed.

Soyuncu gets injured and they replace him with a better player (Fofana). Leicester have the best recruitment in the league by far, surprised none of the top clubs have poached their scouting staff.

Stepping out of defence, playing cross field passes better than most midfielders can. Glad to have you back, Fabian.

Lots of hair coming on the pitch.

Thought my feed my lagging watching Matty and Sean try to get back for their goal. That genuinely as fast as they can run?

Really? First time watching us this season? We're actually closing players down today so it's infinitely better than 95% of our other games,

I miss Cabaye.

Word on the street in Sinaloa is that they got HTT in to record some voice clips.

Has to be Shelvey.

Yep, as good as you will see anywhere this season.

Probably deserves a bump, some crucial defensive play tonight and showed improvements in the forward areas too. Looked far more like the player who served us so well under Rafa.

I'd go with Schar. Same.

MOTM one of Schar, Darlow or Clark? Could be a few mind, some good showings.

Great to see Dubravka in the squad.

Glad that Matty keeps his place if Wilson in is the only change.

What the fuck

Look at the state of that man... Erik Pieters left wing I've seen us put out some grim line ups in recent times but that's a shocker. That said, as brutal as it looks on paper, it's probably a more functional side than ours in our current guise.
