Strike

Broja and Gallagher will return but how much does that improve the squad? Rudiger return is no guarantee and given the club is going through a change, he might opt to leave now

There is also a young Egyptian Loutfy Mansour who lives in London. He runs the investment arm of his dad's conglomerate and is reportedly a season ticket holder

This is turning out more emotional than I imagined. Devastated that he's gone and I have no faith these Americans coming in will be Roman 2.0.

they have found their level

Why is Kenedy on corners?

its still only Wednesday

was onside in the replay I caught. sarr didn't step up.

aimless long balls

Onside too

that was a Werner miscontrol that Saul finished from

because he is not a DM. We don't have the ideal position for him in the 3-4-3

Roman might be forced to sell. But hope its someone who's not intrusive and allows the current people to run things.

Sounds like this will happen but RWB is a very specialised role now. I would want 2 quality options in the squad to avoid something like the LWB situation this year

Makes sense to let him go but if we replace Cesar with a quality RB this summer, it will deter us from looking at Livramento and his 38m release clause that is active from 2023.

Is everyone expecting a shift to 4 at the back? I don't know. I think so much of this squad work well defensively in a 3-4-3 that I think it continues next season as well with Rudi-Silva-Kounde in defence.

Isn't he the best option to start now? Before Connor, upgrade in the summer arrive

English Willian at 23 + he is the PL top scorer so far and deserves to start ahead of the other options in the squad.

I would stick it out with Mount. Clearly has everything else we need in that role except goal threat, which none of the others in the squad have anyway. Mount and Havertz should be two of the front 3 for important games.

Even with Alonso, still think we are up there with City/Liverpool/Bayern for the CL. In one-off games, this team can break out of tight pressing and create chances.

he was well onside for that chance

Kepa coming on for penalties, letting in 11 and missing - is hilarious actually

There's no reason to fingerpoint Mount. His presence in the team really helped the pressing. The chances should have been put away but really fine margins + he's coming back from injury

Was down to luck in the end but really should have scored vs Liverpool's high line.

Oh well. Kepaa. 😁
