These players will forget far more than I’ve ever known about the game but ffs can’t we pass the ball a little infront of the receiving player to try build up momentum. So many times the player has to check back or stop to get the ball.

Whats his workrate? I mean stats. I saw him running and chasing and back for corners when he wasnt try to position himself for an attack. Have youi got stats or is it your intuition?Probably get slaughtered for this, but when pep arrived he said Sergio needed to adapt and work harder, best goal scorer in the clubs history, yet haaland comes in and is there just to score, haalands work rate is piss poor, yes get a ball to him he will score, but in the meantime we are playing with a.man light,haalands work rate is appalling

I defended him all last season but he really isn't a top class shot stopper us he? Brilliant as a sweeper but shot stopping? Nah. A top class stopper would have saved that.The Villa goal was pinged in, and Ederson had no way of knowing where it was heading. Very harsh to blame the keeper for that one.
It's a trade off I know, but his stopping abilities have declined over the last season and a half.
I answered the question. Not scapegoating at all. His error was the initial one that lead to the goal.That’s letting off Cancelo, and half the team defending the corner.
Scapegoating would be another word for it.
In fact I don't think I've ever posted any negative about Eddy before.
Oh come on man, you can do better than that.Yep he won them all on his own

Perhaps this should be in the media thread but Sky talking like Slippy is a tactical genius who should be manager of the year rather than the fact that we didn't turn up today.

Best thing for him would be to be dropped by Southgate - needs to rediscover that sharpness and energy that brought him to prominence. Looks like he's coasting on reputation atm.He’s been poor for quite a while now.
What’s wrong with him?

I don't think Ederson was at fault for the goal, three defenders had poor headers leading up to it, he hit it well, unmarked but hit it well.Why Ederson couldn't stop that goal? A good goalkeeper would have stopped it.
Fuckin great point at a desperate Villa in need of points.
Our best start for a while when traditionally we are slow starters.
Unbeaten in 6, 2 away Draws against decent Clubs and half decent sides.
To put into perspective, if Dipps, Rags or Arse are going to Villa or Geordies we'd be hoping and half expecting a Home win.
Yeah, I'm pissed off we didn't win so trying to put a positive spin on it :-)
Still want the fuckin Arse to Muller those Cunts tmrw, that's how worried I am about them being top!

Crap and still should have won, hopefully it doesn't become a theme.
XG is the most american garbage the world has ever seen.
The invention of XG as an actual thing that people care about along with VAR is slowly turning the greatest sport in the world into a fucking dumpster fire.
