Been watching the press conferences a lot more this season. I'm amazed at how shit the journalists questions are :lol:

 

Do they just think of the most irrelevant or cliche things they could ask?


What was it Baldwards asked when he was trying to go away from the standard line of questioning? Didn’t he basically just tell Eddie he was boring :lol: 

 

Not a lot of tricky questions or insight in the press conferences.

Don't like that its not just a big game but I'm growing to hate these - dickhead fans now supplemented by dickhead manager, staff and players.

I'd rather Liverpool win the league, and that's saying something.

Same. Don't like Liverpool but absolutely detest everything about these.

Big Joe plays. Arsenal shit one. Good shithousery from us! (Hopefully) [emoji38]

I’m not as a keen on a half-fit Joelinton ambling about, getting frustrated and booting people tbh :) - a fit Joelinton and this would be the perfect game for him.  If he starts, then Howe must deem that he’s fit.

As soon as I see Isak linking play and playing 1-2s I'll know we'll have won.


Hopefully he is back to that again. Seemed like the plan against Bournemouth and Fulham was to leave our front 3 high. Isak in particular was isolated and uninvolved in both. 
 

When he has licence to roam about and drop a bit deeper. We look so much better as a team. He is too good to

leave up there feeding off scraps.

It's happened a few times, where if the other team will commit a CH to follow him when he drops deep, he'll often struggle. Huijsen done this very well against him.

Which should then leave massive gaps. Bassey did the same at times on Saturday. We need to be utilising that a lot better and finding ways to get other players involved to exploit the space. The same way teams do to us at times when they draw Schar and Burn out. 
 

Against Bournemouth. The service to him and ability to even get out of our own half was pathetic. A lot of it was contested, hard to control balls or long balls to him. Both their CB’s were dominant.
 

So I’m not ready to just chalk it up to CB’s following him = him struggling. He is good enough to draw fouls, play cute passes round the corner, beat his man etc.
