They're not a threat yet to the 'establishment'

They need to have a transfer window like one of ours.

Possibly our best ever.

Merlin alone would have made it a great window, but Yaya and Aleks too.

OK, so Boateng was a bit of a letdown, but you can’t win them all.

I wonder if they can pick up some of Saudi Pro League players on the cheap. Gabri Veiga, Savic, Kessie in midfield maybe

We were going for similar yesterday until Taylor intervened

We were going for similar until Rodri got sent off.
Taylor was left with little choice.

Are they actually any good or just a bunch of workhorses? they seem to lack real quality

I think we're quite good but still need a lot of quality, we're probably good enough to reach Europe again this season, even with the extra CL games. What we have been good at is with our physicality since Howe came in but that's been missing this season, until today. We’re absolutely useless at breaking down teams who get a lot of players behind the ball so we defiantly need quality up front.

As for todays result, the promoted teams are really poor this year and I can’t see where the first win for any of them is coming from.

We need to qualify for Europe again this season and then we’ll really grow because we have a lot of new money coming in to the club and we will spend it and more likely than not, spend it well.

Well that’s a fucking good score!!
Wouldn’t mind one like that for us!!

The best part of the score was that we had 8 different goal scorers.

You're right but we will become a threat. 2 years ago we were 17th in the league after 6 games and heading towards the bottom which we actually hit a few games later. I think it was game 17 before we won our first game and and then eventually finishing in 11th place after being previously written off.

The next summer transfer window will be huge for us and I hope that we target players rather than going for players because they are on the market.

It's been a weird day today. Our ladies development team started the day by winning 0-9 away from home and then the men won 0-8 away from home which is crazy.

Boehly has made an offer for all those players.

Standing there almost 30 mins after the final whistle, all misty eyed after beating the bottom team in complete disarray, fans celebrating like they've won at the Nou Camp. Fans wanting 10!
I'm sure another club would be regarded as disrespectful?
