We're keeping injuries down compared to last season in the CL so it is helping a little though

You think there's room for both on the pitch with nick playing behind Wissa?

Thanks for that, I get that but there's so many not playing well at the moment but we're picking up points while not playing great and for years we've looked at other teams doing it and wanted it, now we are.

He said after the game give me and other players two games to learn each others game shoot he's more than aware of this.

Harsh to judge Ramsey yesterday, her was class for villa for so long and had hardly half any minutes for us, was this only his second start for us? Willock has been good last few appearances so I think he'll do well this season for us.

👏 Didn't see the game as I was at my step daughters funeral but this is spot on for me, we rotated massively, are playing a game every few days now, are unbeaten since our full backs returned and have picked up 10 from 12 points. In January I feel we need cover for full of backs and possibly a creative midfielder but Ramsey hasn't had a chance yet. Top this off with Wissa's enthusiasm in the interview and him saying something along the lines of give me a few games for me and team mates too get too know each others games im relatively happy.

Just checked and pope had kept 5 clean sheets in the premiere League alone for us this season and 26 in total, I genuinely don't think ramsdale had any in him.

Agreed - we've lost a goal scorer who single handedly scored at least more then a third of our goals last season and probably the season before and are still trying to adapt to that

👏👏👍

Don't defend Murphy - it doesn't fit the script

Say what your like about his kicking but he can't keep clean sheets like pope has done for us so many times in the past.

Win and it's 10 points from 12 with one being man city, can't just leave that off. It's 7 from last 3 games now.

Yep, I'm be honest I post about 90% less on here now because everyone seems to be so extremes.

And we didn't think that about man city, you know when we had our full backs, as it stands not been beaten in the league since they returned. I don't think it's assuming "a lot" at all personally.

Isn't good enough how exactly? Were playing two games a week now and are unbeaten in last three league games with 7 out of 9 and people focus on the two dropped??

I mean if we win next game we've picked up 10 from last 12 points as it stands FFS with Wisse coming back soon so let's not get dramatic.

Said this when we got Ramsgate - he can't keep a clean sheet and too many people get tunnel vision on popes kicking and oversee his other abilities

Same lol, our second half track record isn't great

Willock was also very good against spurs aswell with a lovely assist for Woltemade.

Can't watch the game but seeing we're three up at half time makes me confident we'll get at least a point.

I'm working and can't watch this but after seeing Burn at lb is this another game of them coming out second half and knowing exactly what to do for the first fifteen minutes or so second half - targeting him?

They're also just back and can't be chucked straight into two games a week unless we want to risk losing them again.

And both Anderson and minteh moved and are stressing every game, problem is Howe wants two players for every position but the ones we have in midfield are unstoppable to him. I reckon he's going to want to move on after this season.

Agreed, we won't win this but I'm not worried as this performance is way better. If Howe wants to keep playing like this going forward then we need another couple of just as good full backs for cover in Jan. I know this is easier said than done though.

We bought something like half a dozen players and have three positions We're struggling to fill at the moment with only three injuries. We struggled last season with teams on the low block and rather than a RM to unlock that we bought one with nothing but pace.
