Magic Lamps

We have to get through their midfield. No point passing around. Long balls or counter attacks are the only way here

It looks like Tuchel system has been found out . A strong defensive midfield block stops all penetration

Bowen has weirdly narrow shoulders for such a big head.

The linesman is drunk

Azpi as wing back is terrible. Really does not have the pace for it any more

We always play 5 defenders and 2 dms tho why change formation in the most important game

Ffs puli has to score we are masters of chance wasting

I can see why TT would want to rest Reece but why did he not give CHO a chance? Fredericks and ogbonna are hardly agile, CHO would have had a field day

Tammy on the bench btw but no Oli...Interesting again if westham really park the bus this could hurt us.

Azpi as wingback is a weird one. Interesting decision fielding effectively 4 centre backs when CHO is probably fully rested. Probably setting up to play on the counter attack.

Yup absolute legend lol Has taken points off Liverpool, tottenham and westham. If we make top4 we should award him the classic Arsene-Wenger-fourth-place medal as well^^

Good point. The fans will make their wishes clear that is for sure. The second point i think you are way off. Everyone who owns big sums in stocks has multiplied their wealth. Recessions and the subsequent recovery are the best time to grow a fortune and many billionaire have done so. There will be tons of buyers out there.

Let's hope he gets this clusterfuck of a performance vs brighton behind him. I am really not that impressed with him this season apart from a few games under Lamps before his injury but i guess he can get better. I miss those whipped diagonal balls with his left foot he should try them more often again.

The whole point they make with that they only got time to reconsider after having already signed is embarrassing. They really think we are stupid enough to buy that. I would not actually care that much if they had at least cut the pretence and admitted that they thought the could get through with it bc the opportunity appeared too good but in the end regret not having consulted the fans and will do so next time. When you do something selfish blows up in your face, at least admit you were selfish and have learned from it. No sense in somehow justifying a stupid and egotistical decision.

Even if he was to feature he will not be fully fit and on form. Sure he still can have his moments but this is not prime hazard and we should not change our gameplan for him.

Not at all confident for the run in without him. We will miss him badly vs westham and real... maybe we have a chance of winning the fa cup with him back tho.

Not much of a surprise. he would cost a ton and has proven again to be injury prone. Other than Drinky or Batsit he can at least be a useful squad player for the odd League Cup game tho, so no worries here. Actually with TT he ight hit a short pruple patch again like he usually does under a new manager and actually start some league games. i am less hopeful that we will be able to squeeze a good performance out of the other dregs.

Will always remember how we beat them in our last championship season with one of the most ruthless counter attacks in recent memory. Oddly enough the opening pass came from Ngolo...

He should put away the easy chances he gets for a start before being considered anything special. No matter which type of attacking player he is, he should do the basics right.and that is what he is struggling with at the moment. Even in his good games he ist wasteful. I know perfectly well what type of player he is from having watched him for 2 years in Bundesliga and I can 100% understand why people are frustrated with him

hopefully city. all the others can hardly find worse owners lol. Fat chance of that happening tho. I guess it is ManUre.

Straight red cards for dissent will result in a two-match ban, while dangerous tackles or violent conduct will result in a three-match ban which can be raised to four or more games in extreme cases. Did not see the game. Was it a dangerous tackle?

Ah well. I thought it was 3 games banned.

Villa really bottled this. Anyway, Stones was a straight red so he should miss the match vs us, right?

Juve are the natural choice they are like bayern tapping up all the locals but we should actually be all over this. he is an upgrade over JOrginho with way superior technique and pace.

was terrible again. should have scored early on, would have been a completely different game. dire finishing from him as usual.
