Just anything at home is good now. Quite a few Prem clubs left though annoyingly.

We've missed all the really shit possible draws now thankfully.

That's a sweet draw for Salford.

Glad to see Man U get a shit draw

Well that's shit isn't it.

Unfortunately his poor marking is the reason we lost that. Conceding so early on gave them a huge amount of confidence and something to play for. It's a really bad mistake on his behalf.

That's worse than the Fulham and Brighton loses for sure. All the good will, confidence and momentum form before the international break has been erased.

It's going exactly how alot of us feared it would go. Dominate but incapable of transforming that into goals. The sucker punch came a bit earlier than expected though.

Such a blatant push in the back from Konate.

And he's also injured for the next 8 weeks as well. I know he can play at CB but I wouldn't include him in that group, he's a good backup RB and at push RCB in a three. I wouldn't ever want him playing more than one game as an emergency CB or perhaps against lower league teams in cups.

Tenuous links to Cherki again. Has played as a RW/LW but certainly not his most common position. I'm not sold on him in all honesty but he's an exciting player to watch that's for sure.

We've got five senior CBs in the squad. Three of them are over 31 (Burn/Lascelles/Schar), one of them (Kelly) has a poor injury record and the last one in Botman is recovering from one of the worst injuries you can get as a professional athlete. Add to that, two of the five are out of contract in the summer and the need for a good quality CB is undoubted.

At this rate I'd take that just to get rid of his wages. He's off for free in the summer anyway.

I'm actually kind of hoping that he's keeping himself out for as long as possible so he's fit to be sold in January. Him and Miggy out the door in the New Year would be a massive step towards signing a RW asap.

They'll have changed the rules a few times between now and January if the last week is anything to go by.

Will be good to see Kelly get a start at CB in a full strength team. Thankfully West Ham aren't the kind of team where we'll particularly miss Burns height and actually Kellys better recovery pace will be useful against their biggest threat which I'm assuming will be counter attacks. I'm hoping for a clean sheet, 2-0. Isak and Schar.

Where would this Ireland team finish in the Bundesliga? Or Finland, Slovakia, Slovenia? Are they all better than a midtable German club, I don't think so.

You'd never have thought Kane is getting a goal a game for Bayern would you. He looks really below par. Don't think I can remember his last good performance for England.

TAA will be the main RB under Tuchel I've got no doubt about that. Southgates loyalty to Walkers pace are the reason he doesn't have another 25 caps already to his name. I'll be shocked if Tino plays any games at the World Cup, good chance of going though.

Hall has a massive chance. It's his to lose in some ways. Tino has a huge uphill battle on his hands that's he's very likely to lose unless injuries occur to TAA and James (very likely) before the tournament.

Surely would've been worth giving Harwood-Bellis or Quansah a go over Walker.

Looking at the other defenders that were selected there's a good chance he plays a full 90 minutes in one of the games. Rico Lewis won't be getting in at RB ahead of TAA or Walker so you'd imagine he's there to play LB. Colwill could play there but considering the lack of CB options with Stones out I can't see it.

I think the fact that Pep was touted about for a couple of days and know we end up with Tuchel makes it slightly underwhelming. HOWEVER, I think its a decent enough appointment considering the lack of options around.

We aren't making 4th without some big improvement in our performances and at least one signing in January. Chelsea, Villa or even Spurs are in a better place to get that spot right now.

Refs really have to stop giving fouls for things like that. Werners hand hits the side of Balebas neck as he turns. It's not a foul, it's only because he goes down screaming that he gets it given. Absolutely ridiculous.
