Assuring to read that.

Made it quite clear earlier in the season that I was willing to give our attacking players one final season before a fair assessment. I've been Mount's biggest defender but too many times I have defended him and his 'off the ball work' to cloud his horrid end product. Shouldn't be in the attacking three anymore next season.

Mount shouldn’t be starting for us in the attacking three. Simple as that. Unless he undergoes some Lampard Esq transformation, I can’t ever see him being a success in this system.

Are we interested in Diaby?

On the Liverpool end too

We need a stronger midfield if we want to have Mount out, along with having two goal scoring wingers around Havertz.

Can this final not be at Wembley?

Raphinha and another goal scoring winger are an absolute must.

Along with 80% of us. Hopefully Tuchel and the club finally recognise this now.

Thought at the very least he'd save Konate's or Elliot's. Yes he was shocking (considering his standards) but the weight of blame on our wasted chances outweigh his performance in the shootout.

Gallagher.

If tonight proved anything, is that the team needs to be built around Havertz.

He'd excel in Kante's role. Free roam up and down the pitch.

Blaming Kepa over him is absurd. And I'm one of Kepa's biggest critics along with being one of Mount's biggest defenders. Genuinely hope he realises his position is sooooooo at stake.

Blaming Kepa at all is papering over the cracks over a horrific finishing display. I admire the performance, but how many times are we going to praise our 'off the ball work' and never address the actual finishing? By all means, I am not blaming Tuchel or the system. It's a system that we can build on 100%, but if the players aren't developing to the level we want them to be successful in this system, than they need to fuck off.

Far as I’m concerned, if Mount isn’t 1 hour early to training and stays an hour after it ends, simply working on his finishing, he can genuinely fuck off.

Mount hitting the post was criminal. And I mean criminal. Zero composure what so ever.

Can’t fault the team performance. Everyone pulled their weight. Mason Mount however needs to take a good, long, and hard look at himself tonight. Appalling chances he should’ve put away. I’ve been one of Mount’s biggest defenders but he’s the reason we lost this. Not Kepa. Far too much we have defended him and his inconsistent end product but now he’s on thin ice. Bar that, proud of the lads.

Raphinia is making more and more sense.

That is still guilty by association.

Was the same case in Lisbon. Can’t fault the performance.

Seizing an asset owned by a Russian oligarch that has nothing on him which ties him to being involved and/or supporting Putin's invasion of Ukraine. What does this do exactly? It's merely a cry for guilty by association which is a fallacy and something Roman's lawyers will definitely bring up.

Had we played Sarr this would of given both Salah + TAA free roam to attack our left side. Alonso will at the very least provide us some much needed with and an option on our left side, allowing Pulisic to attack through the middle. Aside the Christensen injury, this is the very best we can do at the moment. No way James is fit enough.

Please no cock ups Chalobah.

Especially when almost every business entity/venture in Russia is intertwined with the government. For an oligarch to publicly condemn their own government would be madness. Even if they genuinely are against it.
