We may look shite but I’m still excited about Enzo. What a proper midfielder… Need more summer clearings for this roster.

Badly still need a 9. Gallagher, mount, and Havertz can all leave.

He’s explosive but kind of plays like a headless chicken. Not very polished yet

Enzo is already my favorite player. That’s what happens when our midfield has been so shit for so long. Wouldn’t mind seeing Mount and Gallagher gone. Ziyech still a one trick pony.

no clue why they faced so much pressure to begin with. Just took over with a crap roster that they didn't build. Now they're making some impact signings of their own and people will love them again...

Time to push for the Europa league with all these signings!

take the 12mil and run. Such a liability these days.

Just get Enzo done....If you're going to overpay then overpay for midfielders and call it a day. We've been overpaying for wingbacks and washed CBs, so just do it.

Good game or not that was a stupid challenge with studs up. Made it an easy call... You can be aggressive and play hard without seeing red on your debut. We need him and now he's out for a few games so I'm not giving him too much credit

Watching this live, I think most of us would have seen that run by Felix instead of passing it to Azpi.... Passing to Azpi on the counter should be the VERY last option, Mason... Mount has some strong qualities but he's still a one touch and go type of player. I was hoping he would evolve into a better playmaker who can scan the field instead of having tunnel vision. Most of the time if the first option isn't there he rushes into a shot or plays the wrong pass. You almost want to just stick him on the wing but then his movements and speed aren't fluid enough. What he does well makes him a viable player but his skillset is still far from the type of playmaker we need...Also please stop taking corners, they're almost as bad as your penalties. SO many overrated players on this roster. Midfield is a joke that makes everything look even worse.

I can only imagine the fire Potter is going to light under these overrated players after the match. "Good effort, lads" "We showed resilience after the red card to our impressive new attacker Joao Felix"

Fresh legs with our 60m LWB, Cucurella. I'm sure he'll be a threat to....nvm.

I'm there. I find it's helping a lot just laughing instead of being frustrated.

We would still be shit with Tuchel with this roster. He has some blame in some of these desperate signings that did nothing for us. He definitely was right saying it's been the same crap because we have the same players though.

Moron just scored vs Barcelona

Play of the match for us so far by Azpi. That diving header back to Kepa was sublime

Willian looking like prime Hazard vs Azpi...

Lost season. Hopefully Felix shows something and let the young kids play as much as possible.

We really seem like the least threatening team in the prem atm. The attack is really that bad... We play with no pace, no aggression, and we always get bullied into back passes. There is no strengths I can think of for this squad. Absolutely no one is worried about our midfield which to me is still our biggest problem. None of them can advance the ball themselves except maybe Kova on his day but even then he always lacks the final product. Any team willing to press us for the majority of the game will most likely get a result. We don't have a proper striker to hold up the ball or at least run into channels to open things up for others... Sterling and Pulisic can take players on but both have been holding onto the ball too much leading to nothing. Havertz and Mount still don't know what their best position is and disappear far too often to be considered elite. Just a bunch of back passing merchants on this team... Bad roster combined with a bunch of poor signings that didn't make much sense has gotten us in this mess. Cucu for 60m? I was critical of Tuchel but here we are still so reliant on wingbacks. Potter will most likely get the rest of the season to see how this plays out but so far it doesn't look good.

I was excited for the signing but he looks really out of depth. Always a step behind and his anticipation during the run of play has been horrible. He took a lot of risk in Italy but his recovery speed and athleticism would bail him out. Now that he seems to be aging he's really getting exposed.

Badly need a revamped midfield and a proper striker. Tired of watching a bunch of back passers.

He was held down. I put more of the blame on Havertz who barely got anything on his headed clearance...

Croatia might just go ahead and win this thing now. Impressive mental makeup they have. Argentina still don’t impress me and a squad like Croatia won’t give Messi much space. France weren’t impressive tonight, but once again England chokes in big moments. Morocco is a nice story but the aftermath if they somehow pulled it off would be unbearable with all the political and religious reasons to back them for some… Tuchel in for Southgate?

Wide open tournament. No team looks overly impressive so far.

Big Rom on for the donkey show.
