  1. This! ^^^^ What a fecking joke that ref is. His team are just as bad! So many fouls against Villa and they go un-punished. Zaniolo looks great and unlucky not to have scored, so to Digne. However, they're leaving us open down that side and we're lucky to have escaped that half without conceding. Feel sorry for Diaby as he makes such brilliant runs and nobody sees them. Last week both Zaniolo and Bailey were guilty of ignoring him and today Watkins did the same. He's on a different wavelength. When it clicks he'll score loads.
  2. Somethin isn't right with Kamara. Maybe feeling threatened for his place by Tielemans and not reacting well to it? Not sure what it is but he's not the same player as last season, thus far.
  3. Should have scored two but got the runaround from Eze all game.
  4. He's a threat going forward, that's for sure.
  5. Captain material? Anyway, why did nobody else think sooner to let the man who scores from corners take the penalties? Turning into a fantastic player.
  6. Like plenty of others, yesterday's performance reminded me of Benteke. I think that we need to get over big Chris and just enjoy big Jhon. We've got Duran, Jhon Jader Duran. He's the best striker in the land. He's Unai's man, Colombian. We've got Jhon Jader Duran.
  7. I think a more confident player would. But, we all know Leon has confidence issues. I think that he needs to stop reading social media and listening to critics (like me) and just do his thing because there is no doubt he is a talented player. I love seeing him score and smiling.
  8. I love this guy. I love the fact he came here to play a certain way and no matter what he does it. Gives the ball away and still keeps trying to do it Unai's way. Our league is the best in the world for a reason. He's used to a slower pace and having more time on the ball. Once he gets used to this league he's going to be the best defender in it. His passing sets him apart from everyone else.
  9. What a player, Moussa is. Fantastic ability, willing runner. Right now, he's too talented for those around him. Yesterday, Zaniolo should have played him in and then Bailey should've done the same. You see his frustrations with his teammates but, hopefully, the link-ups will come and then we'll see him scoring loads. His off-the-shoulder runs and brilliant.
  10. His work rate is unquestionable. His mentality is right. He's just unlucky a lot but, he's just not a natural goalscorer. If he was he would score bucket loads. Crosses flash across the 6 yard box and he's nowhere near them. His first touch is often not good enough. A lot of strikers score plenty of goals because their first touch puts them into the right position to get their shot off. For all the above, we need Ollie. Personally, I really think we would benefit from playing a natural striker and having Ollie playing wide left, where Zaniolo was yesterday.
  11. He was fantastic today. I think it's now time for Ezri to stand up and be the leading voice at the back with Mings on the sidelines.
  12. We'll said! I liked what I saw from Pau today in terms of character. He's clearly been brought in to play a certain way and although he was robbed, gave the ball away repeatedly and, had a torrid time, he still persisted in sticking to the game plan. He needs time to get used to our pace of play. He won't get the same amount of time in the ball here, especially against the better teams who use the high press. Once he strengthens up a bit and gets used to the pace he will be fine.
  13. This is the key. He knows he's up against a complete rookie in Duran and his only other competition (Archer) has gone out of the door. My only real criticism of our management team is that they didn't get Danjuma in. He's a unit, has experience of the league and, they managed him before. He would've really pushed Watkins.
  14. He's simply not doing enough to warrant a place at our club. I'm sure he's got ability but he looks like bambi on ice when he gets the ball far too often (first touch today) and you just cannot carry passengers if you want to be a successful team. He always looks low on confidence and any he had will be completely destroyed after being subbed today. But, who's fault is that? He was the one who couldn't control a ball. He couldn't chase back. He let a clear goalscoring chance go by when he allowed a ball to go across him. He needs to either grow a pair or look elsewhere where the pressure isn't too much for him.
  15. Villa fans singing God save the King to wind the scousers up
  16. He's been OK. Watkins and Bailey looked like they thought they were still playing Hibs. Time to drop Ollie and give him the kick up the arse he needs.
  17. He never looks like he has confidence though. Being subbed today will have destroyed even the imagination of being confident. Since he's been here he's not looked like he can handle the size of the club and what it wants to achieve. Doing that hippy-crack stuff during the season and constantly looking frail. He needs to go!
  18. Because Watkins and Bailey are too passive as forwards.
  19. Maybe put Zaniolo on for McGinn and see if he can get the ball on the turn and drive us forward?
  20. Torres is being over-confident if anything. A few times he lost the ball or overrun it but he keeps doing it. He will learn that the pace of the English game is much faster than that in La Liga and know when and where to do it.
