    Jesus..

    Thank you Brighton, doing us a big favour here.

    Oh okay, I didn’t know that.

    If all we were playing for was the league position I think we’d be fine with what we have, more or less (still need a RB regardless). I think the Conference games have taken more out of the team than it had seemed previously and we’re just over tired and suffering for it now. If Emery wants to win the conference league and finish in the UCL places then we must have reinforcements in Jan - and probably throw the FA Cup as well. We cannot manage three competitions with this squad, imo just being in two is already taking its toll.

    Like all reasonable fans I want this guy to come good and be a key part of the team, but - within reason - I think we need to be a bit more ruthless as a club when it comes to recruitment. The question applied to every player should be ‘would they get into any of the squads that finished above us?’ If at the end of the season the answer is no, we either shouldn’t be looking to sign them permanently, or actively planning to upgrade them. I really hope Zaniolo makes the grade because I think he’s got it in him to be fantastic, he just needs to show us that in the next 19 games.

    I think Carlos is comfortably the least capable senior CB we have to play in the style of Emery’s system. He’s far too hands on with opposition players and struggles to sustain his concentration. Premier League level, but not top 4-6 level - and likely too expensive to shift on anywhere but to another PL team. Good cover for Konsa but no more than that.

    Bayern apparently looking to offload Kimmich, which would sort the defensive side of our midfield.. Back in the real world (for us), when Man City buy him I’d definitely take Phillips off their hands ‘if’ he gets real about wages - let’s face it no one is giving him a new contract replicating what he’s on now. RB the most most pressing issue though, and improves two positions in one by getting Konsa back into the middle.

    Feels like we arrived for the second half in a DeLorean from 2021. Great run aside, we are still a long way from the finished article. Merry Christmas.

    Not a huge fan. If we have to play Konsa at RB I’d rather see Lenglet and Pau at CB.

    Moreno’s heads gone too

    Emery needed to make changes early on when we were crumbling and certain players contributing nothing. He let this game get away from us.

    Falling over

    Just **** shoot for **** sake

    Emi had that covered but Carlos deflected it in

    That idiotic red for Kamara has already cost us points, and looks like it could cost us some more
  17. Awol
    Carlos having a **** mare here. So lucky he was offside
  18. Awol
    That’s been coming all half. We seemed to come out after the break scared to play our game. Must score again now
  19. Awol
    FTFY
  20. Awol
    We’re a bit skittish. Need to calm down and control the game a bit more.
  21. Awol
    Oh dear.
  22. Awol
    After watching how good Lenglet’s passing has been I’m wondering if he could play CB with Pau, not instead of.
  23. Awol
    Could see Zaniolo on for Ramsey later, JJ not having much positive impact yet
  24. Awol
    Lenglet’s passing yyeeeeeessssssss!!!!!!
  25. Awol
    Have that you beauty!!!
