why was foden not replaced? for Alverez
Phil was poor again

Ederson couldn't stop a bowling ball rolled at him by a 5yo!

He made good saves during this game, especially a one-on-one - he’s clearly one of best in the league at those. Maybe he’s not the greatest shot stopper of all time but our trophy cabinet suggests he is good enough. All other aspects of his game are outstanding.

All keepers make mistakes. The Villa keeper had a good game today but gave away two goals last week.

There wasn’t time for him to move anywhere before the shot was past him.

Unless you can improve reaction times to that of an Olympic sprinter, no keeper is touching that shot.

Tony Coton, Nicky Weaver and Keith McCrae…….it would have even beaten those three.

Think everyone’s thinking the same thing. Surely only a matter of time before Foden’s used from the bench.

Alvarez getting no minutes at all today was just baffling.

Very sloppy - look very tired.

Spurs will probs do us next week too.

Nah! We owe them

We have had a fairly good run of fixtures so far but despite picking up the points esp against the promoted sides, i don’t think we have been that great. The upcoming fixtures will be more of a test but if we keep putting in these sort of performances we will drop quite a few points.
Its been a very strange season in the PL in general this season and the World Cup Break in the middle also and i think the top 4 battle will involve alot more teams this year

Some sad boys posting on here.

Poor game where we failed to exploit the dippers’ loss of another 2 points.

It‘s never in the bag with a 1-0 lead. Why weren‘t we freshened up by bringing on Alvarez? Is there something wrong with him?

I won’t be losing any sleep though. We got the best equipped squad in the league but the occasional off-day is inevitable.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Its still our best start to a season under pep.

He has made some awful decisions rushing off his line and giving away penalties but the one today was spot on. Silly to criticise anything he did today.
