Maybe so, but he still capitalised on it. Also, I'm sure there will be plenty of times this season when things will go against us. At the end of the day, we have 7 points. Hopefully, we can build on things. As I mentioned above, we capitalised on those decisions. Did you watch Liverpool V Newcastle (who had 10 men for more than half the game)? The lack of another first team AM could be a problem with Palmer out for however long. I'm not expecting much from Buonanotte.

Surely struggling after having no preseason and winning is a positive, right? We, Liverpool & Palace are the only teams unbeaten after three games. There are some positives to be taken.

A penny for Klopp's thoughts. All those years there on a shoestring budget to seeing them spending record amounts.

It feels like they're attack heaving and still have big holes defensively. If Salah can deliver even half the numbers of last season, I imagine they'll walk the league again.

The window started off promising. It's a shame real ambition lacked, but we have had our hands tied to an extent. Last few days have been a mess, though.

None of this makes sense with Jackson seemingly staying. We surely aren't shipping him off the latter for some unknown deal, are we?

He's another one who was seemingly a Chelsea fan growing up. If he delivers on the pitch and his brother stays off social media, it could turn out to be a decent bit of business.

We had a strong start last season but injuries and dip in form cost us. A bigger squad this time around could help us keep momentum especially during the festive period (AFCON takes place in Dec this year). I feel Delap's injury could force us into some unexpected deadline business.

We're very far off even being considered title challengers, but results like today show we can win without playing well in the slightest. Top of the table for the time being.

Estevao has been all over Bassey. A third goal will kill this game off.

How on earth did it take them that long to make such a straightforward decision? I was worried about Enzo taking it. Thought Joao Pedro would have been the nailed on choice on the field.

It's a shame that isn't the final play of the game. Nice to see us make the most of set pieces again.

Who is on the field to feed them? Enzo is not a playmaker. When will Maresca realise that?

Which he isn't. I'm sure if we had a top quality WF on the bench, Joao Pedro would have gone centrally. It's a sign over the entire squad.

It worked at Craven Cottage 🙄 The fact George (who we've shopped around) has been brought on ahead of Gittens. What message does that send after only three games?

He was supposedly a doubt to begin with. It's stupid to risk someone of his importance.

We've be fortunate two weeks in a row. Let's not forget West Ham were denied a second. No idea how we were caught so open at the 20 min mark, though.

The moment Delap pulled it, the mood switched. That should be a foul on Trev, tbh.

I literally have no idea what's going on here. There surely can't be a shortage of offers, so it leads me to believe they are just trying to milk every penny out of potential sponsors. The longer we don't have one, the more it affects us financially. We just became world champions and have a history of winning. Comparing us to Arsenal is a sad sight, all things considered.

It's still crazy to me that they gave him the responsibility of taking a 90th minute pen in the semi final play off match. That shows how much faith they have in him and his ability.

If we're signing "squad players" for £48.5m & rising, we're doing something terribly wrong.

Emery is a huge fan of Jackson. It comes down to how financing would work for both teams considering the scrutiny that surrounds us both. Not to mention, the Kellyman deal raised eyebrows to begin with. Looking out of Simons is a big deal for me, as long as we get the former. Fermin is too much of a gamble, and Wharton isn't an eight. The thought of signing him and pushing Enzo higher permanently would be a massive concern.

If he doesn't end up succeeding here, it won't have anything to do with his lack of drive or mentality. Extremely impressive for a 17 year old. Any chance of his own thread, @Vesper ?

Second game into the season.

They have been for the last few windows. At some point, they have to win something or they'll remain a laughing stock.
