Strike

And give Gilmour a bigger role. I like how the midfield is packed with quality players. A far cry from when one Kante injury would see Bakayoko and Drinkwater start

You forgot the best - Ross Barkley

Jorginho seems like a dressing room bully. The fun kind who jokes about

Completely bossed the last few minutes. There was no nervously hanging on and defending crosses into the box. Brilliant second half. Ajax hardly had a sniff other than the setpiece

Pulisic has been brilliant!

Wow. How is that offside?

Dug a hole for themselves with that header and then Ziyech has the freedom of the pitch to shoot

A counter-attacking 3-4-3 with Reece and Emerson at full back and Azpi at centre-back (unless Rudiger is ready) This will be a lot lot harder especially with the young squad taking the field in a Champions League away game but just like at Lille, I would love to see the team play a tight and balanced game.The lack of expectation this season really makes you enjoy football for what it is.

Few months ago, I thought Nathan Ake was nailed on to take Zouma's place in the squad because of the buy-back price. But now I am getting greedier. I would love it if the club gets a beast centre-back to play alongside Rudiger. To have Tomori as a rotation option will be immense.

Fucking hell. Yes

Following game thread here and waiting for people to explode into cheers

Still keeping calm. Somehow get the win!

or this is just journos putting two and two together. Chilwell has 4 years left on deal and held out for 80 m for Maguire. Chelsea have a transfer ban in January and City also have issues at left back. I am not convinced

Hope this is minor and not a repeat Azpi has been solid in recent weeks but if he is playing every game, it is going to affect the team. Would love some fresh ideas from the right back instead of sticking the predictable cross into the box.

I can see United approaching Pochettino soon

and it was pure instinct. He controls the ball over the top and he senses the keeper is near and lifts it over him. Even if he missed by an inch or so, can't fault the idea. Not many strikers in the league who would even make a chance out of that situation.

Alonso has height but he has concentration issues with setpieces

Ah. Vintage Willian

Yes. Rudi, new CB and Tomori for rotation will be a beast defense.

Oh dear. One attack to defend

It was Hudson Odoi with the assist for Tammy and William for Mount. Are you blazed Manpe?

Should be 3!

Noticed this. Alonso has watched every long ball carefully

Brilliant. Mount just blasted that in

WHAT A FINISH TAMMY
