He fucked up last night, acknowledged it and we move on. The bigger issue for me is the poor coaching of this side. Last season every attacking player aside from Haaland underperformed. We’re almost in December and our second highest PL scorer is ‘own goals’. It’s embarrassing when you...

Are they bad players or just poorly coached?

One of the most arrogant displays of football management in the history of the CL. Pep treated Levekusen like a League 2 side in the Carabao cup and got his arse handed to him.

The issue isn’t VAR, it’s the bullshit implementation of it that’s the issue. The PL have allowed technology that should have made the game fairer and more transparent to have the opposite effect. By adding all these shite layers of thresholds of intervention and not wanting to re ref the...

Sterling is one of the best players in the history of this football club and deserves far more respect than he gets.

Frustrating as fuck that result. The two questions marks over a title challenge this season was being competitive in the big games and grinding out wins against the likes of Newcastle, Villa and Brighton etc away from home. I think we’ve managed the first up until now but are nowhere near the...

You just have to shake your head in disbelief at that corner.

Don’t see the difference between that foul on Nico and the penalty decision on Phil.

The problem with your post is that you’re applying the same motivations to the Ukrainians and Russians. Ukraine didn’t want or start the conflict. For them, it’s a war of survival not simply a fight to beat Russia. Other than surrendering their sovereignty, there was simply no other option...

We’ve been excellent and look like we’re starting to click. A bit worried about the whole set piece situation though. Yet again we’ve missed a penalty in a big game and their disallowed goal could easily have gone against us. Hopefully we can put in a solid second half performance and get...

Outstanding first half against an excellent side. Cherki, Doku, Haaland and Nico G all excellent. I love the way Cherki is always looking to feed Haaland the ball. Only disappointment is we’re only leading by a goal. Also a slight worry that no one else seems to be chipping in with goals other...

Crazy how that’s a foul and a yellow card for Phil but the Donarumma challenge in the box isn’t a foul.

The guy is awful and there’s a reason why Pep doesn’t want to play him. The money we’ve spent on Philips, Nunes and Nico is absolutely staggering.

On a side note, there’s no other side in world football who can have a back 5, 10 men behind the ball and still concede with a long ball over the top.

We turned up not to lose and didn’t lose. You perform the way we did and you need to be switched on for 97 minutes, not 90. Whilst the immediate feeling is one of frustration, it’s nice to see Pep mixing it up. Although I’m not sure about the Haaland sub!

We could do with some fresh legs here.

How the fuck?

Good half that with Foden, Haaland and Doku all looking excellent. A bit worried that Rodri and Reinjders have failed to get a foothold on the game so far though. I think Savinho for Bernie or Reindjers would be the change to make if they don’t improve in the first 15 minutes of the second...

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Rodri give it away so much in a game so far.

Derby games are always big games but this feels huge in the context of our season. It’s early doors but we don’t look any better than we did last season. If we lose today we could be looking at 4 consecutive losses in the league which is not good enough at all. That said, a decent win today...
