different level

It's painfully obvious how much we miss Kante at this point.

What happened to our defensive stability? So far Mendy bailed us out a couple of times and we look like we're on the brink of conceding.

Villa are all over us. Saul needs to get up to speed quickly.

This is what it feels like to have a striker!

Happy to see our boy Connor is developing well. Maybe needs to work on his set pieces, but either way extremely influential for Palace today.

Palace are going to win, but the best part of it was just how dominant they've been through the entire game. Spuds made them look like Bayern.

Spuds are so lucky to end this half without conceding.

Classic Werner. At least that was not in a Chelsea shirt.

We should send them a cheeky €20m bid in the winter, lol.

I know I'm not the one who pays the transfer fees, but €80M is way too much for Kounde. I'm glad we stood our ground, but in this turn of events we are one CB short. Hopefully Azpi, Andreas and Rudiger can stay fit.

A thread in current squad already? Are we sure about that? Don't see anything official yet.

Not completely sure if Chalobah is a good cover for our CBs. Sure he had decent two games, but he's still quite a bit of an unknown, could go either way for him. If we weren't going to get another defender we probably should've kept either Zouma or Tomori.

I can't be the only one who is more worried about the possibility of us ending up without a new CM than the defense situation. At this point I'm not all that invested in the Kounde deal, but a new CM is a must.

Officially announced as West Spam player. Thanks for the service and good luck.

Should've been a win. A point is alright given the circumstances, so yeah... it is what it is. Playing the long game.

Don't even feel like watching anymore.

Kai! Never expected a goal like that from him.

Alonso is quite sloppy both in attack and defense.

Come on, lads. Beat these scouse cunts.

2 goals for Gallagher against the spammers!

As much as I'd like to see Arsenal lose again and get closer to The Championship where they belong, it'd ve been nice if they could get something out of City, but nope... 2-0 down after less then 15 mins played.

A decent group and lots of awards for us. Still feels somewhat surreal seeing Jorgi winning player of the year award considering the fact people wanted him out of the club not so long ago.

Just avoid PSG from pot 2 and RB Leipzig from pot 3 and we'll be fine.

Just imagine us getting Lukaku in 2017 instead of Morata. How different it could've been for us. I mean we still won some very important cup trophies in the last couple of years, but I'm pretty sure our Premier League form would've been at another level with him and Hazard in his prime.

Your typical away win against a typical mid-table team.
