Remember him saying in an interview when he signed that he can't really grow a beard. Would solve alot of his problems though for sure.

The whole list almost seems tongue in cheek but that one more than the others. I guess then by their logic, Schar, Joelinton and Isak will all have some sort of secret information to let Howe know about playing against German teams.

Same can be said for us with Bruno though. Every team (aside from City) have that one player who if injured for a prolonged period would spell disaster for their season.

They are all very different types of fullback, and you could argue that Cancelo and Hakimi almost aren't fullbacks at all so that skews their attacking statistics so much. Trippier is far more balanced than any of those other than perhaps James.

"Geordi Arabia" Not bad for Yorkshire folk.

Villa have got Luton, Forrest and Fulham as their next 3 Prem games. They could easily win all 3 of them, it's going to be tough to keep up with them before the next International break let alone trying to catch up with the top 4.

Seems like we'll be finding out tomorrow then. 9 months or less and I think that's fair, anything more would seem like overkill. This is all based on the assumption that what he's done isn't tantamount to match fixing. If it is, then ofcourse I'd expect it to be closer to 18 months if not more.

By the end of the season this will be higher. My great prediction of 2023.

Really open game so far. Both teams have had good chances, been enjoyable so far. Much better than watching Man City or Liverpool play some crap midtable/relegation team like is usually on Sky.

Getting the ground to PSG levels for this is going to be a hell of a task! If we can get anywhere close to it I'll be happy. Dortmund won't come here with the same gung-ho attitude that PSG did. This will be alot more nervy. One goal in it.

Judging by how quick Fagioli was given his ban I was expecting it to be last Thursday/Friday, so yes I think this week is very likely. That means he could still potentially play against Dortmund ofcourse.

Both clubs have 3 more games before then, alot can change. They are still a level above us this season, but being at home will help.

Perhaps it's less to do with the players coming off and more to do with the players coming on. Targett wouldve come on to replace Burn if that was needed. All the players who came on are ones who will almost certainly be getting minutes in the next 2 weeks, Hall probably won't be.

Why has he chosen a picture where he looks so sad for his post game tweet. Worrying.

That Liverpool result makes us look like we're off the pace with the other big boys but in reality we're a win against Wolves away from being back amongst it. Especially if Arenal can't get anything against Chelsea today.

Don't see how Aresnal can complain, they know the rules, it's always going to be handball. Arteta would be livid if they didn't get that.

Wow, that should definitely be a penalty. Handball all day assuming it doesn't take a deflection immediately before hitting Salibas hand.

A Hattrick of sorts for Murphy today. 2 assists and a goal. Could've had another goal and an assist easily also. MOTM performance from him.

Perfect warm up for Dortmund.

Done! Great result. Shame Isak couldn't get one to try keep up with Haaland but 3 points and a load of goals will do.

Palace have had 1 shot on goal so far and 12 shots OFF goal. Ridiculously bad from them in fairness.

Happens so often with us. Commentators never seem to realise how our style of play causes other teams such issues and forces them into mistakes.

Or yes, I'm confused.

Or not

Yesssss
