  1. Even City wouldn't play out from there
  2. I think it's less about the goals, more about how we set up tactically. The hold up play, pressing from the front and ability to draw defenders that Ollie offers is so important and I don't think we have anyone who can deputise that sufficiently. Maybe Emery thinks Duran can but it's pretty bold to only have a 19 year old as backup. I don't think we really have good cover for Bailey in the second striker role either. 3 forwards for 2 spots, with one being a 19 year old who's not played in a top league, seems quite the gamble.
  3. Whilst I get the mantra of waiting for the right player at the right price, I think you have to consider the position the squad is in. I really struggle to see how a bad injury to Watkins doesn't completely derail the rest of our season.
  4. I think it's easy to say with hindsight that we should have played a stronger side; Emery is still getting to know the players, and if you can't play premier league back ups against a league 2 side, when can you play them? That team should have more than enough quality to win comfortably.
  5. Unbelievable we will get nothing from this. Really got to think Ings should start over Ollie
  6. Has everyone who had a meltdown when we were 1 down, calmed down now?
  7. Is it possibly telling that Cuts was let go given that he had say in keeper signings and Olsen was signed under him - a good shot stopper possibly, but not the kind of keeper Emery would want to purchase, or presumably that his goalkeeping coach would want to train?
  8. McGinn has done so well, nice to see the Meatball of old back
  9. Douglas Luiz shut up and have my babies. I think I'm getting over excited...
