I'd be shocked. SHOCKED GODAMMIT, if any club picks up Ings contract and offers him anything better. SHOCKED.

I’m not so sure. Firmino will leave at the end of the season and Salah is finally looking to be slowing down albeit still a very good player. Nunez has become a joke figure and Gakpo, well, who knows, but there are several high profile players from the Dutch league that have come here and flopped quite badly. Diaz - looks to be a good player. Jota, good player but not world class. I wouldn’t fear facing him. It’s a good front 6, but it’s no Mane, Salah and Firmino 2/3 years ago. They also have Thiago and Henderson who aren’t getting any younger. I don’t know, they’re still a very good team, but maybe they’ll fade a bit over the next couple of years.

No, and City, to be fair to them, move players on quite regularly for decent sums of money. This kind of spending is beyond the pale. I don’t know how they’re managing it and I hope their house of cards comes crashing down (it most likely won’t).

Nkunku, Pulisic, Sterling, Havertz, Fofana, Ziyech

Enzo Fernandez going to Chelsea for £105m… Mental.

I’d like to see him in a foot race with Bailey. Bet there isn’t much in it.

We won’t get Europe. We have dropped too many points against the lesser sides under Gerrard. We should have beaten Forest, Bournemouth and Leeds away, and then we’d have been in with a shout. I just think we’re too far behind and it would take an epic run, the kind where the grim reaper is visiting 4/5 doors at a time, to get near the top 7. No reason we can’t finish in the top 10 with Emery though. That needs to be our aim before an all out assault next season!
-
Pffft, say what you like, he’s still the weak link in our side. I’m hoping we sign better in Jan and really kick on.
-
I watched them against Everton and they were very poor at the back. Admittedly, it’s the only time I’ve seen them play this season properly but off the back of that, I fancy us to score a couple.
-
Is he back for the Wolves match? There doesn’t seem to be any news on his injury really anywhere?
-
I was just thinking that!
-
Just needs to find that consistency. I have hope!

I’d play McGinn, Ramsey, Bailey and Coutinho ahead of Buendia. I think Buendia is the weak link in our side and wouldn’t be surprised to see him further down the pecking order come February. He’s too slow, too weak and very careless in possession. I think Coutinho is a far better footballer and whilst he struggled under Gerrard, I don’t remember him being any worse than Buendia who was also poor (you can throw Bailey into the mix too). Our players are starting to look good again now, playing in a proper system, I just don’t think Buendia has the attributes to help us push on. If he hadn’t of scored today, it would have been a toss up between him and Bailey being our worst player. He was really poor in particular in the first half.

He was comfortably our worst player in the first half and arguably the worst player on the pitch. He was far from ‘excellent’.

I just don’t think he’s a central midfielder at this level. He plays almost as a second striker for Scotland and seems to be playing better for us in a wider position. It’s not rocket science though. His attributes lend themselves to having a bit more space and facing the opposition goal rather than receiving the ball in tight spaces facing your own defence. I still think we need to improve on him but he’s a real asset as a squad player and hell, who’s to say he can’t make that right midfield spot his own!
-
Bullied them time and time again under the high ball. He has a good knack of leaning into the defenders and stealing the ball off them when they miss the first header.
-
Should be playing ahead of Buendia for me.
-
Are you saying Enzo Fernandez is overrated at £105m?
-
Very surprised Chambers came on ahead of him.
-
Very good centre half. You have to spend a lot of money to find a better centre half at this level than Mings.
-
He was atrocious in the first half. There’s no getting away from that. Improved in the second half and took his goal well. I still think he’s the weak link in our team.
-
There was a moment today up against Son and he recovered well. He’s still got a fair amount of pace. Question. Is he a better player than Cash?
-
My famous thread! For the first time ever, I feel it’s something we don’t need to talk about in a negative manner! We obviously only play two in there at the minute but those two are very good so it isn’t an issue. In fact, it’s the focal point of our team. Long may it continue.
-
As good as I want him to be and believe that he is, he’s come in and done the obvious - built the side around Luiz and Kamara centrally. McGinn and Ramsey have been struggling in central midfield for 12 months and guess what, now they seem to be playing well in different positions. Unai is good. Very good in fact. But Gerrard was fu***** horrendous.
-
Our most consistent player at the moment. Stupendously good signing on a free transfer. Lord only knows what his value is if he were to move. Build the team around him.
