Buendia is the kind of player we need but as long as Eddie is manager we aren't going to get. A real number 10. Small at 1.72m, skillful, a bit of a maverick.

What's unbalanced is spend 200m in the summer on 5 players with only one of them improving us and then watch that hopeless badly coached shambles pretty much every league game and pretend it's acceptable.

That's Gordon's level, no composure, take a swipe, ball in the stands

Eddie writing a quick note, Pope still cant kick the ball.

No idea, I don't think anyone does.

There is no sign that PIF are ruthless at all, quite the opposite, you'd hardly know they owned us. They are either indifferent to how we are doing or don't care.

Hall is far too slow to ever be an elite fullback. I'd like to see him tried in midfield.

I thought Wissa was meant to be quick

We were shit.

Tonali as the deepest of our midfield is nasty

Just about matching Wolves promising so far......

No because he's not the manager, a lot of people on here don't seem to realise that most clubs have a first team coach not a manager including ours.

I was thinking how slow he is.

Botman is genuinely shite.

Unfortunately playing Willock means it becomes extremely difficult to sell him as everyone can see how shit he is.

Me too but not behind that terrible midfield.

Tino is a lot more Win Bassaka than a Reece James or TAA or other progressive full backs. Defensively excellent but limited going forward. Imagine someone paying around 70m for a footballer who can't cross or shoot.

Arsenal linked with Livramento but not until the summer.

Why not just offer well over his perceived value with only 6 months left on his contract and give Palace a problem and something to think about, Guehi too. Offer them 40m he's worth it. Make the offer very public.

Certainly our most composed player and maybe our technically best.

I went to this one. It was a strange atmosphere after the game half celebratory having won a 7 goal thriller and half realistic knowing if we continued to defend like that we would fall short again.

Best player on the pitch scores again

They press better, they pass better, they're quicker and they are more physical. They are us when we could still run around. Hopefully they get tired soon before we concede again.

Absolutely desperate by us again, just consistently shit.

It's a long wait this season for a decent performance, we are nasty again so far.
