We are such a SHIT side with the ball. It’s laughable.

Tough watch.

If only we can have someone of same quality as Isak in final third. Just so lacking.

Disappointed Hall isn’t starting, borderline annoyed.

Agree, but this is where their transfers coming in need to be hits and that reflects an extra £150m+ squad next few games, or it’s money wasted.

Unhinged

We’ve got Joelinton.

Saliba is so bloody good. Hope when we get a transformational defender like him who can do it all.

Injuries racking up before UCL campaign starts

Leave him, let Palace go down, and sign for half the price in summer.

It runs out eventually. During both, his sides just don’t score many, and once they start conceding, it’s a mess. Will grind out enough 1-0 wins to be better than the newly promoted sides, but for Everton it’s still can kicking and they’ll bloat squad out with more crap.

Ipswich could get slapped now. Can’t do that at this level.

Man Utd are just the same. Going to stick with ETH because they should go all way and really win Europa, but they’re never ever challenging for the league with him there. Such a limited manager. Squad being shaped for him that a new manager will not like.

If we can’t get urgency to get it done after a Schar 3 match ban, then I don’t know what the fuck we are doing. Going same approach that sure us then flap come PSR deadline, but I guess people are still very pro positive.

Think Minteh was sold more that it was like near £40m, and Murphy and Almiron didn’t have offers on the table at that stage and we always wanted a RW. Brighton obviously see something more in him than we do, otherwise I highly doubt we sell him, giving the lack of movement on RW.

This guy is crap.

Speaking with Palace for over 3 months and we can’t land one of their fuckers Piss poor.

Think it's like 1 defeat 3 draws 1 win in last 5 there?

Guessing we're doing communications by pigeon carrier which is why it's going so slooooooooooooow

He had a release clause for that which has now expired.

It's no doubt he's a good player Barnes, and if he started majority of games like he has elsewhere, he'd be getting 10+ prem goals. Just we have Gordon LW who offers something different, and how Howe sets the team up, only one can play. Do feel though Howe must be close to giving serious consideration playing Gordon RW if we don't sign a RW, so Barnes then starts more. You can't be spending £40m on a top end output guy and have him on bench more often than on the pitch. Just a question in that scenario, would that annoy Gordon? I personally don't think it would, as Gordon showed under Carsley he's happy to play anywhere to benefit the team and he trusts the manager.

Better get used to it this season. Going to be on bench far more than starting. Wouldn't be shocked if I'm honest, he wants out as season goes on, especially if he has England ambitions. Never going to get into England squad when you can't get in over Gordon to show ability.

Not optimistic for this game. Always seem iffy when we play on south coast more often than not, and Iraola will have the players with movement and better quality than Southampton. score draw will be a good result IMO. Same team, with Kelly in for Schar.

Hypothetical, what would be consensus on squad if summer went like below when we were flapping around PSR? Gordon to Liverpool £80m Gomez to Newcastle £45m Eze to Newcastle £50m Overall outlay £15m.
