hypochondriac

Not sure what you mean by first team squad setup. Any chance you could elaborate without giving too much away?

It was absolutely nothing like a poch team. We weren't pressing for a start and we really struggled to keep possession, particularly before the sending off. There were some positives but I still think we are not certain how we want to play.

Can't agree with you there. The last half an hour was a lot better abd especially after the sending off but before then we were struggling to create anything. Soares and romeu were particularly poor and we just couldn't keep the ball. I think better teams will outmuscle us in the middle so hojburg is a must. We still need some attacking creativity for me but redmond really did well in the second half. Overall some positives but I'm not convinced by this new formation yet.

Rubbish formation. Hasn't worked at all so far.

Really weird thing to say. It's an uninspiring lineup that doesn't mean we will play badly or lose.

Agreed. Seems a very functional but fairly dull lineup. Let's hope for a good performance and win regardless!

Not sure about that. A nice pair of baps is more likely to catch my attention.

Bass, Trout, Lobster?

Seems like next week's starting lineup.

Sportsmania is the only one you need. Like Batman I signed up for a lifetime pass a couple of years ago but I think you can still get yearly subs for about £50.

We need two more attacking signings. Everyone knows that is the case abd presumably so do the club. I'm happy to wait till the end of the window and I'm confident they will materialise.

We will clearly be signing one or two more. That's just something that all managers say. There has been no indication that we won't be addressing the attacking options, the club aren't silly.

To be fair I think the average fan on the street is a bit fed up with selling our best few players every year. Admittedly this has been masked by some canny buys and good performance over the last few years. Let's hope for a couple more so we can forget about the painful loss of mane to Liverpool. The good news is that it looks like we won't have any more nasty surprise losses this year other than maybe Tadic.

It's too early to have a go at the board for a lack of ambition. I'm expecting a couple of big signings before the window closes. If we get nothing else or a Juanmi type signing then I'll be annoyed but the board have earned some patience.

Good that it wasnt another terrorist attack. The way things are going though there could easily be another one tomorrow.

How many more before some on here admit there is a problem?

It's really really bizarre that he would deny the evidence in front of his own eyes. These types of terrorist attacks in France and Germany have never happened with this frequency before. It's unprecedented and it's linked to the migrant policy and to radical Islam. It's an undeniable fact and to blather on about unrelated killings is laughable.

Just another normal day in mainland Europe.

Knife wielding men taking hostages in France. Ho hum.

Bit late now. Much of this us down to Merkel and her white guilt opening the floodgates to anyone who fancied a trip to Germany.

Fair enough. It's the sort of routine thing that you see in western Europe from people with mental health issues all the time.

Good luck son! You caught me once when I foolishly posted late at night whilst also posting on here. You haven't managed it since...

It's more of a dangerous liaison that way.

Well either klopp or Henderson:

I'm pleased we've gone for bfs. He has a defined style, is good at getting the best out of players, is desperate for the job and has a back to basics approach that we need right now. He is a good pick imo
