Negatives always grab the headlines, unfortunately.

I think we should be all in for him, especially for no transfer fee.

He's been given the all clear to play along with other South Americans in the Prem that didn't go on INT duty.

I understand not judging the entire nation by the same token. Saying that this literally happened the last time you played - https://www.firstpost.com/sports/explained-why-were-hungary-football-fans-allowed-in-despite-racism-ban-9933991.html

Nothing will change in the slightest until points are deducted & qualification is actually at risk, unfortunately. One person doing it is one too many.

Nope

Still have a number of ageing players that will need replacing.

Everything seemed to hinge on Zouma & it's cost us (as it stands).

I didn't think he'd still be around, let alone a starter.

I can see Saul getting done, but we'll probably miss out on Kounde.

That "British tax" in full effect.

Maybe so, but he probably would have been an integral part of our defence & things could have been different with him being an established CB for us. Guess we'll never know.

I thought all Prem clubs had agreed to deny players from going to countries that are red listed (Salah & Elneny aren't allowed to play in Egypt, for example). Our gain, either way.

Seems as if he has offered around & Utd were the only one's stupid enough to bite.

What might have been, hadn't he suffered that ACL injury. Wish him the best of luck!

It's a shame we aren't walking away with a convincing victory after our first half display. Good point, nonetheless.

Werner has to come on. We need an out ball.

Kante off injured. Guess we'll push ever harder for another CM.

Havertz had the best chance to slide Lukaku in but held on for too long. His short burst of decent form always seem to cloud our managers' judgment.

Ref has destroyed the game. Never a red, as it clearly wasn't deliberate. Saying that, it all could have been avoided had Alonso left the ball to Mendy.

Kante for Kovacic is the only change. Surprised Werner wasn't given the nod today to exploit Liverpool's highline.

Great turn and finish from Gallagher. A brace from him.

I'm saying it isn't a given that a SA side will progress to the final. They have been a mixed bag in recent years & other teams around the world are closing the gap; RM faced two Asian teams in their FWCC triumphs whilst Inter beat an African team. One thing that let us down back in 2012 was underestimating teams, but I don't see that being an issue this time around.

I wouldn't say it's a given.

No, I meant them hijacking both deals from City. The second point was just me referring to Ronaldo's deal.
