  1. He was on our own half, there is no offside in that case.
  2. Yeah, ironic that Bissouma looks amazing this season when we got Caicedo.
  3. Should be open game with a lot of goals like in pre season.
  4. Very offensive full backs. Very pacey lineup.
  5. I assume it's: Sanchez Disasi Colwill Cucurella Maatsen Caicedo Ugo Mudryk Palmer Chilwell Jackson With Maatsen-Chilwell possibly switching places.
  6. Fati, Mitoma, Pedro did not start their last game so they should tonight maybe.
  7. Nah, no chance under Lamps we would be solid defensively.
  8. Would prefer if you answer actual point of my post but ok. That is like me only quoting your last sentence and telling you Azpi played only 25mins last night. I always liked Kepa, Alonso, Jorginho btw... And who were better? Willian at Arsenal? Alonso? Jorginho barely plays... They all gave us their best years. After they went downhill... Just like Mount and Havertz for us were 5 or 6/10 and now they are even lower. Lampard also put 5,6 very young and not experienced players. Mount, Abraham, Tomori, James all came from Championship. We are compering 30yo Willian of that season and current Sterling 28 who was always more reliable goalscorer. How many people would take Abraham back? We are 14th with 5 points after 6 rounds. We would be 2nd with 16 if Enzo hit his pen, and Jackson and Sterling are on 50% conversation rate which is nothing special. Tammy was hitting goals, Jackson is failing. Nothing deeper. Lampard was not let down by his attackers unlike Poch. Only difference. This is our state. Top5 would be amazing. I feel talk about Sanchez, Disasi, Gallagher, Caicedo, Colwill, Poch, formation is unnecessary and not where any problem is.
  9. Pool, WH and AV are all top7. NF is mid table. And they should have something from United game as well.
  10. We all agree Poch is way better coach than Lampard. Lamps got top4 in 19/20 season with based on minutes they played this lineup: Kepa 24 Azpi 29 Chris 23 Zouma 24 Alonso 28 Jorginho 27 Kovacic 25 Mount 20 Pulisic 20 Willian 30 Abraham 21 A lot of minutes also for very young players like James 19, Tomori 21, CHO 18. But he also used some experienced players like Kante, Rudiger, Giroud. We still have now Silva, Chilwell, Sterling for experienced players so not sure that can be used as main reason why we are so bad now. There are probably couple of reasons. I do not buy that team was better. People never thought Tammy was good enough to lead the line, majority never liked Willian, Jorginho, Alonso, Zouma, Kepa... We are very solid defensively now, Lamps team was conceding a lot of goals. The main difference is scoring goals. That team scored 69 league goals, this one if continue like this will be around 35 goals. Abraham scored 15 league goals, Willian and Pulisic 9, Giroud 8 and Mount 7. This is top5 goalscorers that season with 48 goals. Our whole squad cannot score that per season now. Question is why Jackson, Sterling, Mudryk... cannot do that? If Nkunku is fit and Jackson is not horrible in front of the goal we would have different conversation now. Really a couple of small details... Enzo scores penalty and WH loss is a win... Yesterday on 0:0 Jackson and Sterling missed one on one. Against Bournemouth we hit the post twice. Again Sterling and Jackson. Nottingham again unreal miss from Jackson. We beat Luton, Liverpool is fair result. But from WH, AV, NF and Bournemouth instead of 12 points we got 1. I just said why, couple of small details. We have same expected goals as Spurs. But difference is they score we do not. Like I said Nkunku injury was big blow, Jackson conversation rate is horrible and not having another experienced striker was mistake. Sterling also should have scored more. Even Chilwell had 2 golden chances. Fans always put too much onto results but bigger picture is much more positive. Luton game aside we scored 2 goals in 5 games and have around 15 big chances missed. When analyzing our results we really should not look further than that.
  11. We actually have similar expected goals as Spurs. But look where they are and where are we.
  12. Ofc this was not red. Similar tackle except Azpi came first for the ball so it makes it even worse with refs inconsistencies.
  13. They definitely were. I remember reliable quotes weeks before Potter was sacked that he would not be judged about results for a couple of years. Fans pressure made them sack him.
  14. Fans need to understand we are in process. Results do not matter for a couple of years. This is what we have been told from the owners. Sooner you accept it the better because you would not feel so down.
  15. Only 2 teams did not score in round 4. Only 5 in round 5. Only 5 in round 6. Chelsea did not scored in any.
  16. Only City and Liverpool conceded less than us. Which means attack is best defense. But only Burnley and Luton scored less than us. It was similar with Potter solid defensively but shocking in attack.
