thought exactly the same myself basically playing a version of himself on speed such a prick

kinda enjoying going into games with a slightly morbid curiosity about what we will see nothing to play for really Hojlund is due a goal

Dalot is our most improved player this season and (Chelsea aside) he's very rarely not performed well - still not sure why Ten Hag played him on the left. silly to compare him with the likes of Garnacho who is younger and at a less advanced stage of his career. Its understandable that Garnacho...

embrace the chaos a midfield 3 of him, Mainoo and Bruno with Mainoo deep and Mount/Bruno showing some discipline

better to be in this than out of Europa all together.... players like Bayundir, Hannibal, Amass, Kambwala, Antony, Amad etc would really benefit as well as keeping the likes of Maguire, McTominay happy

why aren't you watching out of interest?

Harry Kane situation with Watkins Villa don't need to sell so he'll stay as long as he's productive.... If he's motivated to win trophies he might comsider a shorter contract than the 6 year one Kane signed

I agree totally - looking at the profile of the players I think we need to be more economical with our pressing. The profile of players in attack and midfield are counter-attacking/quick transition players. Our fit defenders are limited on the ball and suit box defending. This combination seems...

your point might be valid in the fullness of time. I think a good Summer of building might involve Rashford/McTominay/Ericksen moving on and a player like Mount will be more important then. the issue is that when he's been fit he's largely been a sub. At the beginning of the season, we needed...

what has pleased you about the Mount signing? could the 55m or whatever have been spent better?

I agree with you - I was just replying to a poster that he has persisted with a flawed pressing style perhaps instead of Mount he might have bought a quick reliable CB or a quick DM Amrabat baffles me also - the guy isn't anywhere near quick enough for the Premier League

he has played that style of football - the issue is that we don't have quick defenders so we have to play a lower defensive line. this is why we are so vacant in midfield and easy to run through. Not sure where to find any recent stats...

so INEOS will instill a style of play and the staff - existing or new - will have to adapt to that......surely this will be the deciding factor on Ten Hag's future. Can he deliver the kind of football they want. If they've plans to play a possession-based style surely they would go for a coach...

thought we managed the end of the game well until that first Dalot error for penalty - where did 8 mins come from. Just a stupid error to run behind him like that. this season has been one of the craziest, frustrating woke up in shit form today the kinda mood only a result of some type at...

impossible to predict Chelsea have been pish poor but we've consistently made teams look their best in months
