Carroll Crouch Benteke Dzeko Slimani I don't even know what to believe anymore.

Looks good on paper but Mourinho will probably have them play as a functional side as opposed to a free-flowing one.

As some have alluded to, had we gotten Dzeko 4-5 years ago, it would have been an excellent signing. Not too sure about now but he should be a decent back up. Am curious about one thing though. He is the first choice striker at Roma but he's willing to leave that to join us, where he may potentially be second choice? Or has he been promised regular game time?

We've won 4-0 in 3 away games this season and Alonso was awful in 2 of them. What's up with that?

Says more about previous seasons.

Think it was an easy decision to keep him on the pitch today. Batshuayi and Willian played 120 minutes in midweek. So, it was obvious one of the two was going to be taken off.

You're being fairly optimistic. Don't rule us out signing Crouch!

Can't be any worse than Alonso/Zappacosta/Moses, surely?

Shame no debut today. Should get it against Newcastle next weekend, assuming he doesn't play in midweek.

He is already slow to begin with and when he's not mentally on it, he is even slower and dare I say, shittier.

Not sure if it was the change of keeper or just one of those games but good god, we looked so vulnerable every time a cross is floated into the box today. @Tomo definitely has a point when he said we look far more assured dealing with high balls when Courtois is in the side.
