What puzzles me is that Pochetttino obviously sees something in him to have called him up for the USA squad this year... Unless the USA talent pool is much worse than one assumes it is...

Quite amusing 🙂

Yep, my MotM, especially the first half

The unlikeliness of that hypothesis is the very point people are making... Both keepers are error prone, and there's a valid case for believing that McCarthy makes less mistakes than Bazunu, and visa versa. Different opinions on this are fine. For me, I feel less uncomfortable when McCarthy is in goal.

Yeah, he didn't come across very well at all in that interview. Lots of nervous gestures and over-the-top repetitive negativity. The Sky pundits in the studio said it was a bizarre reaction from a manager whose team had almost matched the best team in Europe (albeit their second string)

There were quite a few people bigging him up in the Smallbone thread to be fair

Full time Decent performance Is Still strong enough to stick with those that played well tonight? I doubt it. Stephens and THB should start on the bench vs Middlesbrough, for example, but Stephens guaranteed to come back in at least.... P.s. £9m down the pan on Downs. Textbook Sports Republic.

Match being played at Anfield maybe (just a wild hunch)

Corner, surely?

Think they're talking about the first ball out wide? (Which I think was also onside anyway)

Yep 😂

Cock

This. Utter joke.

Keep up...

Downs needs to drop down to the U21s to hopefully get some confidence running through his veins. Rabbit in the headlights at the moment.

Welcome back 😂

Ha

Great cross Armstrong, no-one in the box for the rebound

Charles and Downs on

He did that most of the time in the first half
