Agree, although Gabbi really should have scored that chance in the first half.

Yeah, exactly. We identified a problem that needed fixing so critically that we let a dead-man walking joke manager blow £20m on it. And now we've got the same problems we had before then, plus Gallagher, who clearly seems to be rated below any of the others. We've signed a promising looking winger but seem determined to play without wingers. Great stuff.

When Yoshida came on he was immediately shouting at the others, pushing people forward, holding the line and generally giving some much needed leadership which was completely absent until then. Yoshi should be our captain. Back 4 with him and Vestergaard. Romeu and Lemina in front. Then Armstrong, Elyounoussi and Gabbi behind Austin or Long, depending on the opposition. Can't believe we've signed a winger as our main new attacker if we're going to play 352. Yesterday was complete crap.

Yeah, you could but it wasn't long ago we had a group of genuine quality players so it's a bit depressing.

"El-Whathisname". Stay classy, Alps.

McCarthy Targett Stephens Hoedt Bednarek Hojbjerg Romeu Long Austin Redmond None of them would look out of place in a Championship team. And that's why we will struggle.

Yep. Need to go to a back 4.

Crrraaaaappppp.

Yeah, he gives the ball away all the time. Poor today

Lots of responsibiltlity on Lemina and Armstrong to create something. I think our team is functional but unexciting. Could be a very boring season.

Lots of Germans in town. They seem to have gathered in The Spitfire. I wonder if they know.

Takes some doing with your seat belt on.

Good point. We need to respect all 24 genders equally.

Maybe a bit of forward planning though. Cedric has this season plus next under contract. We would be looking for him to sign an extension this summer or be sold by next summer.

I think he had the highest dribble completion rate last year.

The Vag Man.

Just scored a screamer.

BINGO!

You cite England's proficiency from set pieces but look at the delivery from Young. Just floated in. Anyone can do that.

Looks like he's not in the squad for today's friendly.

I went to school with him. FACT.

What about midfield?

Why did you pick a date 9 days ago, out of interest? Haven't Everton sighed Frazer Richarlison for oooodles since then?

Prague for a Desmond is still a good deal!
