You just know that if it was on Salah or Nunez at the other end it gets checked further.

Is Stephens stupid?!

Isak's goal though That is superb.

Hate, hate, hate when pundits say a shot is superb/magnificent/fabulous despite it taking a deflection. Mangala's goal was described as this, but it took a deflection on the way in

Yep. I'd say Barnes is more suited to the PL than KDH is.

How do you give that much space to de Bruyne there ?!

Barnes

Chelsea should be hitting about 6 or 7 tonight

Why?

He did, but it was straight through their player and he was rightfully booked I'd say.

So they wanted to be supportive of Mazraoui but in the same breath they've shown they can't be supportive of fans who fall into the category for which the jackets/armbands etc are raising awareness of?

And Gerrard at Liverpool

Salah at Liverpool?

Rooney and Giggs I'd assume must be two of them, at Old Trafford. Shearer at Newcastle. Henry at Highbury? Kane at Spurs. Aguero at Man City. Lampard at Chelsea.

He got the assist-assist for Daka's goal But yeah, he's shit. Get the fvcker gone in January. I won't even be fussed if he goes on to be good at a different club. He's no use here.

Has anyone called him lazy for last night?

I think right now he's probably better than Ederson. Which worries me for January, let alone summer, as some clubs could come knocking on the door for him. What reassures me (to an extent) is that you can already safely presume Van Nistelrooy is well aware that there's a possibility Hermansen leaves and they're already succession planning for it... He's quite clearly our best player right now. And that's in spite of conceding several goals which aren't really his fault.

Think I was a bit harsh on him during the game last night but the switch to the left seemed to work in his favour. Exploited the space and had a bit more room to work with and run into. Probably didn't realise at the time his work rate was helping the team a lot and went on to get a good assist. Perhaps needs to be a bit stronger and physical though?

You can be a nice bloke but still come across like Cooper did. You can also be a nice bloke and a crap manager, like Cooper was. With Van Nistelrooy already you can see he demands a lot and expects a certain level of performance and attitude. And he's not afraid to perhaps let it be known to the team that the standards need to improve constantly. RVN seems a lot more pragmatic but determined, and with an actual structure or plan of what he wants from himself and the squad. When you have someone with a clear plan in place the players will respond favourably. It may not work all the time but if the players believe in you it's more likely to work. With Cooper there never seemed to be any strong plan or confidence in or from him.

On/by who?

Currently on 141 PL goals 3 more to level with RVP in 14th 9 more to go level with Owen in 11th 120 more needed to go top of the all time list.

Let the debate begin!

He's quite down to earth and not getting carried away. Sensible guy.
