I agree. I think we're missing the third midfielder. We have no interplay around their area. I dare say gundogan maybe of use here.

I don’t get 2 strikers but wise men that cut in.Surely we’d be better getting behind and whipping the ball across?

Good play by Mahrez

The guy with six assists from our 3.5 games so far?

Maybe so, but he was nowhere when Newcastle scored.

He's not getting forward either.

Delph was brilliant last season. Did the basics and more. Why drop him?

Too much chopping and changing by Pep.

Fantastic players can't get a game or a place on the bench. They won't hang around.

So much moaning. We aren’t open, they scored on a good movement. Can happen to anyone. We have created many chances against a parked bus, just need to convert. Why are we yearning for Delph, Mendy has been fine

Huddersfield was 3 games ago

Once this game finishes it’s two.

Game before Wolves which was the last game.

 

[Blu1]

I’m beginning to think Mendy is complicating our play so much

 

[dave_blue12]

Mendy frustrates the shit out of me.

He’s completely brainless

 

[Goater=Legend]

Why arent we letting Mahrez take any free kicks?

 

[happy]

From BBC website...does Liz have a login on here, she's got that matchday thread peppy vibe about her?

Liz Tray: It is going to be a long season if we don't take the chances we create. Jesus not good enough. Mahrez poor. Fernandinho looking his age. Get it together!

 

[SWP's back]

Did the basics and more. Why drop him?

Because Mendy is better.
