They haven't turned up though. They've been really really average.

Moyes would keep us up and is the type of realistic appointment the club needs now. Not the time for progressive managers or to take a risk. Solidify the defence and genuine danger on the counter, it's the route to survival and what Moyes would produce.

Man Utd have been garbage and are 2-0 up without breaking sweat. Shows how much of a shambles our defensive organisation is.

He did well there. He needs teammates helping him out. Every time he gets it he has no options and has to use some fancy footwork just to work himself out of the cul de sac.

Narrowing down by albums which i love, are a bit more "avant-garde" but are also generally accepted critically as modern classics, i'd go with. My Bloody Valentine - Loveless Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas

Latest Ann Selzer poll has Harris up by 3 in Iowa. Don't think anyone saw that coming.

Amazing how people see games so differently. I had him down as one of our best performers, low bar admittedly. Hutchinson got no change out of him all day. Distribution needs tidying up but defensively I'm more comfortable with him than JJ currently.

I've never celebrated a 95th minute equaliser less. Thank you to Kalvin Phillips.

Surprised VK getting a roasting here. He has been a bit lax in possession on occasion but defensively he has kept Hutchinson at bay. Last 25 minutes of that was another disaster. Complete lack of composure and confidence to just put a foot on the ball, but then if you are hoofing it, at least try and challenge for 1st and 2nd balls. This actually might be a game for Ayew, and neither winger could have any complaint about being replaced.

Mavididi been so weak all half.

The previous announcers voice always used to break whilst announcing the line up in the last couple of years, would throw him right off his stride when trying to add the oomph to calling out the 11. He often went pre-pubescent boy when pronouncing "Albrighton" and he would then immediately go down 2 octaves to Barry White level when announcing the rest of the side. Completely inane, but stuck with me.

I agree. I was really surprised the commentators on TNT were pushing Beterbiev for the whole fight for essentially pressuring and punching glove and arm.. Bivol did the vast majority of the clean work and whilst Beterbiev was pouring it on in the last 3, I thought Bivol was a few clear by then.

If you're referring to what I think you are, Faes was screaming at Mavididi for not sprinting to give Hermansen an option to start a counter.

Feel a bit sorry for Ayew. He'll probably end up being synonymous with this Cooper era as a bit of a joke figure, not due to poor individual performances per se, just the fact he is the player embodiment of Coopers safety first attitude. He's a useful player in the right circumstances, just those circumstances aren't starting every game.

We were dire for the vast majority. Coming back to 2-2 with 2 low xG efforts and holding on until stoppage time shouldn't mask that. We've conceded 4, and Hermansen has still made more saves than any other Goalkeeper in a premier league game for 7 years. What you're looking for a green shoots that suggest we can pick the points up against the poorer sides in the league, I just don't see them.

Worst case scenario given how the game went as it'll buy Cooper time. We were dismal for the vast majority of that. Hermansen has had a worldie, we've scored 2 low xG goals from our only 2 efforts in the game and Coopers strange in game management laid bare again. The only positive is that we don't look like we'll roll over, but that is the same of the vast majority of poor sides fighting to stay up.

What is this ref doing

Most teams will lose comfortably at Arsenal, but at the very least the performances need to give something, somewhere to cling onto. There is absolutely nothing as a team, in the coaching, or the individuals that gives you the impression that things can get better under this manager.

Any danger of someone putting a foot in?

Not good enough from Vardy

Went to Gdansk in April for a birthday celebration with friends. Very pleasant city.

Does lots of good things in areas of the pitch which don't hurt the opposition. He won't offer anywhere near enough from an attacking perspective to be considered a nailed on starter.

Awful first half, much better 2nd when he decided to impose himself on the game. Just a shame his last 2 contributions were terrible balls into the box.

My electricity smart meter doesn't work which is a pain as it needs to work to be able to change to an Octopus tariff, which ive wanted to do for ages. Probably missed out on over £1000 worth of savings thus far. Have called my supplier a couple of times but they aren't bothered about it getting fixed.

Draper will need to improve his conditioning massively. The game is top 10 but he won't realise his potential unless he can cope with the physicality. He wasn't tested this tournament and gassed after 2 hours here, albeit in brutal conditions.
