DM is the hardest position in football. We're not going to try and shoehorn our £100 million winger into it. He has good passing range and can beat a press very well but I'm not sure he has the defensive nous to play there and I doubt he can learn it in a few weeks.

Top player, hopefully he can stay fit for an extended run in the team as he thrives on regular football. He'll shut some people up this season.

It's just because they know how good he is. I punched the air with delight when Pickford injured Van Dijk, not because I wanted to see him hurt but because I knew we'd just won the League. Unfortunately for them, we'll be right up for the fight and losing one player won't make or break our season.

I do too. Must be a lot of fluid in there if they still can't fully identify what damage has been done.

Arsenal at home please. Then just send out 11 City fans to launch two footed throat high tackles at the cunts.

Arsenal only have Jesus and Havertz who you could argue aren't natural strikers.

Yeah 16 is so young, loads of time to fill out that lanky frame then he'll be a beast. Can't see him being shoved off the ball like tonight at 20!

I thought I was generally tough on the lads but feels like some people on this thread watched a completely different game.

Thought he showed a lot of promise, couple of moments where he was welcomed to senior football shall we say, but for a 16 year old lad making his debut he did very well. Tactically he was in the right positions and he was very tidy in possession. Even had the confidence to try some passes...

Who cares honestly

Zico Lewis

Thought they gave a very good account of themselves after the silly mistake for our first goal. The Georgian lad they brought on looks a right player caused us all sorts of problems.

Bit of a hairy last few minutes but an enjoyable run out. Nunes, Grealish, Zico & McAtee all had very good games. Few sparks from Phil second half. Debutant held his own and looked tidy in possession. O'Reilly grew into it and was looking composed second half in the deep role. Good match...

This Georgian lad for Watford is fucking class

Hamstring and Pep said until the next international break which is second week of October, so not too bad really.

I'm sure the Umbro logo was gold not red!

I like that actually, tweak to pubstalgia and I reckon you've got a shot at the next Oxford dictionary.

Think Pep said Pubalgia? I'm assuming some weird muscle around your pubes lol but Pep did mangle it in the conference.

The system we played in the first 3 games without him looked pretty good to me.

I like him. Liked him at Girona and he's slotted straight in. Just needs to add a bit of steel and devilment and he has everything. Makes smart decisions for a 20 year old Brazilian winger. He understands the game very well. Think we have a gem here!
