different level

We're about to lose to an Italian Stoke City.

So Spurs rejected more than £100m for Kane when he was desperate to leave effectively forcing him to stay against his will. What could possibly go wrong?

Oh, wow. Spurs are trash.

Disappointed, but this result alone is not the end of the world. We just need to pick ourselves up and don't this turn into the beginning of a slump. Moving on to Juventus.

Mendy is easily our best player today. It's shaping up to be a well deserved loss tho.

It's kinda sad that RLC is supposed to be the sub that makes the difference against City.

I'm starting to get confident when it gets to penalty shootouts. The reason - fucking Kepa, lmao.

Lol, Kepa really intimidated those Villa players.

What would the system look like? It probably won't be our usual 3-4-3 unless Reece is playing a CB.

While I don't think it would be the end of the world if we don't win any of the national cup competitions I really don't want us to be like Liverpool basically throwing those away and if things don't work out in the league and CL they end up trophyless which is a very common occurence for them. For all his hype of being among the best managers in the world Klopp has a league title and a CL trophy in his 6 years with Liverpool and while this doesn't sound too bad it pales in comparison with the stuff other managers have achieved. Top teams fight on all fronts.

Completely battered these cunts. Really enjoyed that.

Seriously, if we receive a half decent offer for Werner just take it an run.

Omg. Werner is just so shit.

Three points Stadium.

Zenit came to defend and they did that quite well for almost the entire match. Us struggling against sides who park the bus is nothing new, but thankfully Rom rose up to the occasion and bailed us out. Performance was meh, but the three points were achieved so moving on.

Rom broke the deadlock.

Time to see some changes, maybe? Chillwell, Havertz and Werner (well, why not?) in!

Lmao Rudiger. Where's that intensity in all the others?

Most boring 45 minutes of football I've seen in a while.

All things considered the result flatters us a bit, but I'll take it. Saul had a nightmare debut, which is disappointing, but he'll have many opportunities to show why he was brought here. Chalobah is a bit shaky and needs to be developed more and IMO he's not ready to be a starter in our EPL games yet. I'm really not a fan of CHO at RWB, he was extremely vulnerable and most of Villa dangerous attacks came from his side. I must say it's so nice to have a clinical striker. It's been a while since Costa left and I completely forgot that feeling after having to deal with the likes of Morata, Higuain and Werner. Big Rom is doing his thing so far and I love it.

Big Rom! So clinical!

The gifted goal made things a lot easier and after Jorgi came in we were in control. But quite honestly our overall performace was meh at best.

Kovacic with a goal and assist so far!

Okay, the best player in Europe is coming in!

Maybe we rotated a bit too much? Obviously Reece is suspended so we didn't have many options at RWB, but Saul's debut and Chalobah's experience play time could have been postponed for the Carabao Cup game.
