Our approach requires squad depth due to our high intensity, we have 11 injuries. Cut the players some slack FFS.

Isn't Barnes back in training. It's more about the players on the pitch looking absolutely fucked, we need the rest.

Hope Tonali feels like shit watching this!

Let's face it guys, a complete knee jerk reaction from other clubs to a hypothetical situation that's unlikely to happen is pure comedy gold.

Well that would be enough clubs to block it. But as others have mentioned I find it highly unlikely that we would even entertain a loan move from the pro league. We have already demonstrated we want to work within the FFP and we aren't prepared to entertain grey areas. Id imagine arsenal are behind this based on their recent tantrums.

More and more the premier league is showing that it is not fit for purpose. The crazy thing is the smaller clubs are ensuring that they will remain small clubs. Never able to challenge the established bigger clubs as they voted the rules in.

Big Joe did really well with his runs down the left, if anyone deserved a goal it was him, felt gutted for him. No idea how this ended up her, I was replying to another thread ?

I think the lack of options in front of Trippier didn't help, I don't think out midfield was very mobile last night and they employed an aggressive press. He's one of our main outlets. I think we improved massively when tino dropped into defence and gave us another option.

If you think of the ground he covers each game, last year he was in the top 10 for distance covered over the whole season.

It's frustrating as I don't think we have done ourselves justice in either game against Dortmund. I don't think Dortmund are all that.

Surely Dortmund should be fined for this protest, it's so distracting with all that shit on the pitch.

Have to put chances like that away, this is like a carbon copy of the first game.

How?

Again no yellow card.

Dortmund fans love a protest

That's not shielding the ball, its a foul.

Why are we so slow to the loose ball.

Unleash the hounds!

He looks exactly how he did in the first game.

Think the goal was on longstaff, he didn't track the runner.

Hopefully Howe has a little word with the ref at half time. Hall got a yellow for nothing, they've committed numerous tackles from behind and gone unpunished.

What is going on, that's a clear yellow card!

Another late foul and no card.

Awareness to go down, he was fouled three times.

Thought hall was fouled more, Dortmund player just launched himself to the floor.
