[IronsideKozuch]

Rodders injured
No backup for Haaland
Kev ageing and injury prone
Doku showing little sign of improvement
Gundo not fitting back in as first expected
Scant transfer market activity inwards
Arsenal looking strong again, possibly stronger

I'm comfortable knowing this season won't be a fifth title in a row. Four was brilliant, though.

you re waving white flag far too early. We have troubles, but your guesses all very negative. Newcastle away gonna be a tough fixture for everybody, Gundo will be better, Arsenal look strong, but no stronger offensively than us, KDB been very good before injury, with Ake back soon, no backup for Haaland is not neccesarly terminal as few could easily play false 9, we can make moves January (we done some great business in the past), Oscar Bobb gonna be back in few months, Stones should be much better

Sorry, did Newcastle play well today ? I thought they gave us tougher games under Alan Pardew.

 

[Zenmanc]

At least our PL slate for October isn't too daunting. We need time to adjust.

 

[Mr HJ]

Thought Jack had a very good game and for me he should start ahead of Doku who looks a bit one trick merchant at the moment, saw a lot more from Savinho who gave them problems. Good to see Phil looking more dangerous.

We just need to find a new rhythm and balance without Rodders in midfield - not sure Kova and Rico together are the answer. Fully confident Pep will figure it out. Just stay in or around the top and see where we are in Jan when maybe they will need to accelerate plans to add a dynamic ball winning midfielder.

Just see pen he didn’t touch him ???

 

[lancs blue]

Doku bashing after a 15 minute cameo from the bench is ridiculous,

He's the new FFS, it seems.

 

[homerdog]

Then don’t go in there ffs instead of complaining all the time.

He's not wrong though.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

He allows himself to get too involved in the needle, he should stick to making them look daft as he was doing in the first half.

To be fair, I've never seen anything like Tonali and Schar's antics today. Both going down pretending to be elbowed with absolutely no contact, then kicking the fuck out of him when that didn't work.

 

[SebastianBlue]

I can’t believe how that penalty DIVE has just been glossed over. Shit like that seems to be accepted without much issue.

Correction: unless one of ours did it, in which case there would be a four month public inquest.

 

[PaulTheOctopus]

at least its a proper game
compare to the Arsenal one

oh boy, i hate arsenal
