Hopefully you’re right. It does seem to be a bit of a gamble though. All the other top sides have at least two strikers.
I think that’s fair. He was a mixed bag.Some really bright moments mixed with some dreadful play-but no substitute for getting game time. Involvements in both goals caught the eye but lots of loose control too.
I can't see anything happening in January mate unless our form becomes very unpredictable from now on and we find ourselves chasing the leadersOne of those games we were expected to win comfortably in spite of the many changes that would inevitably come. It didn't turn out that way but it should have.
Missed loads of chances, started to get sloppy and conceded another long range shot that nobody closed down.
I know this competition is way down in our list of priorities and we made a fair few changes but there was a lot of sloppy unprofessional play at times. Fucking about when into four minutes of injury time was a big one.
Early in the season and we're obviously doing okay but some things are worrying. How easily teams are breaking through us and our weak defence. Rodri coming back and getting fit should have solved some of that but it now looks like he'll be out for the season. Goalscoring is a worry as well. Without Haaland we're just not clinical enough. We need to get a back up striker in January. Either a young prospect or a wily old fox happy to play as back up. Obviously a Rodri back up too but we've been saying that for years.
Early days, top of the league and through to the next round of the cup. Onwards and upwards.
Terrible buy. His attitude stinks. He went on strike to force his way out of Wolves and has been truly shite. Shown up again by the academy kids.. I wouldn’t care if he never played again.Pep had words with him at the end as well. With Rodri out it’s a big chance for Nunez. But he doesn’t want to take it. Gone in January I think.
We watched different games.Entertaining match and great to see the kids getting a chance and playing well. Will be a real confidence boost for them.
Rico was just sublime, he’s going from strength to strength. Poor Savinho still somehow hasn’t got on the scoresheet but honestly it’s just a matter of time! He shouldn’t be disheartened after that.
Grealish MOTM for me. Works his arse off offensively and defensively. Could have had several assists, especially in the second half. Just stick him in the middle Pep.
