Reijnders gets into fantastic positions but can’t finish unfortunately. He should offer a huge goal threat but poor finishing lets him down. He lack’s Gundogan’s control on the ball or work off it. His poor work rate out of possession is a huge issue at the moment.

Expecting a very difficult afternoon against a well coached, hard working physical and athletic side. They went to Anfield and were a goal line clearance away from a late winner. Still feels like we are a couple of players short. Principally a midfielder to play with Nico or Rodri. Reijnders...

He used to pretty reliable though these days Jack Gaughan seems to get the best briefings from the club

What an incredibly weird match. We were brilliant at times and woeful for most of the second half. Although Nico didn’t have his best game, his substitution showed how important he has become. That said all our substitutions were a little strange. Bernardo was out on his feet been played on...

Last season we beat Forest and then dropped points away to Palace. We really can’t afford to be dropping points tomorrow. Fulham haven’t been as good this season, competitive without getting the results until the weekend. Our away form isn’t good enough and needs to improve now. I think we’ll...

He seems like a good pro and works very hard. The concern always when buying someone at 25 who hasn’t played at a top club is how they react. Will he feel like he’s reached the top and get complacent like Phillips or does he push on like say Eze at Arsenal? The other issues for me is switching...

On Foden’s tackle I’m convinced, but obviously can’t prove, that if Foden scored Schaar would have been booked. The stakes would have been pretty low for the ref. The fact Foden didn’t meant the ref would have had to award a penalty if he books Schaar so he just bottled it.

I don’t know if we’re going to do any business in January but short term we’re crying out for a right back, centre midfielder and a winger. Slightly longer term we will probably need to replace Bernardo, Kovacic and Ake this summer. There’s also uncertainty about Rodri, if he doesn’t sign an...

We have one, he’s slowly coming back from an ACL tear. Problem at the moment is an inability to turn first half dominance into bigger leads and keep allowing the opposition stay in matches. We could and should have been 4 up at half time. Second half a series of howlers from Nunes gives them a...

We need to go strong tomorrow. After two bad results we need a win, ideally convincingly but any sort of win. We started well last Saturday but were a little lightweight in midfield. We needed to take our chances. In the first half Saturday and last half hour on Tuesday we created lots but...

For me the goal that goal is on Donarumma. He doesn’t need to come that far and entices Martinelli into the shot. Brilliant finish but our keeper is in no man’s land.

I do wonder if our team away to Arsenal or Liverpool should different from home fixtures. For example at home should we be playing Nico and Rodri together or substitute one for Bernardo or possibly Reijnders. Away, especially in the big games, then play the two of them. Equally I’m not sure...

I still wouldn’t rule us out yet, we have done big personalities in Donnarumma, Rodri, Dias, Bernardo and Haaland. If we can keep them fit then we have a chance. That is of course quite difficult. Last night was a good indicator that we no longer have the depth. Bobb and Savinho are utterly...

I have been very disappointed with him since the Arsenal match. He’s done very little work off the ball but gets into decent positions but his finishing and decision making are really really disappointing. Really odd and downright disrespectful team selection. Lots of players thrown under the...
