The point is it’s a bit stupid to play a style of play that doesn’t suit the players and it was obvious it didn’t suit some of the players. Being incapable of adapting your style of play to get the best out of the players at your disposal isn’t...

Yeah just yesterday they said around the 80th minute that Jorginho coming on would free up Rice to make a difference higher up the pitch, and it’s these kind of games they bought him to make an impact in. Rice is not that player. They allude to...

Worst attempt I’ve seen in a long time

Yeah I agree with you there. It’s a strange one, I can’t really think of another player who has the brass balls to play passes well above his station over and over again, fail repeatedly, and just keep going. He either thinks he needs to push...

He is a player that can make an impact in moments though. We have too many of those players, of course, but in the current scenario where we have no effective system and players who are struggling to read each other, there isn’t much value to...

The worst thing about him is that he gives the fullbacks and attacking mids no confidence to take up good positions, because they always know there’s a good chance they’ll be running back the other way seconds later. It applies to most of our...

He played each of Antony and Garnacho in on goal with the keeper, taking his time and playing the right pass. He does that better than most of our attackers. He loses the ball more often because he’s never in the right position and the...

The best thing is that moments never phase him. He takes a touch, assesses the situation and if the dribble, shot or killer pass is on, he just goes for it with complete composure. Given he spends so much of the game on the fringes, it’s amazing...

We survived

I reckon it’s hard to get annoyed at any political commentary if you hear it in Ben Shapiro’s voice.

True, I wouldn’t say he won the ball. Jesus looked favourite to get to the ball after that touch anyway, and clearly the follow-through impeded him from getting it. But I just had it in my head that if you touch the ball, it’s not a foul, and...

I thought if you win the ball it’s not a foul, unless it’s a dangerous tackle or similar? How is it that football rules are so opaque or ambiguous?

Do you think you’d get your money back if you sold Ederson on now?

He has but maybe Liverpool might’ve helped him discover he has asthma and coincidentally those muscle injuries would’ve been a lot less frequent and severe… If he was injured for most of the season at Liverpool he would’ve been a first season...

It’s safe to assume Mount would have been far more effective at Liverpool than he has for us. He’s exactly the kind of player Klopp has done well with and he fits the system, whereas one of Mount’s biggest problem with us is the lack of any...
