No Trippier either. It's to be hoped Tino is totally ready. 

[SoHelpMeGod 241]

We've got a left back playing at left back for once. Baby steps lads.

Joelinton has been well off it but this might be the game that suits him as we’re going to spend a lot of time without the ball. I thought this might be a game for Elanga too because of his extra pace on the counter attack 

Hope so but I think we’ve been saying that about Joelinton for a few month now. And I love him to bits. Tbf, I’m less concerned about it at home and I think Tino and Hall coming back will alleviate some of the pressure on the back four.

*Phew*

At least we have two keeper on the bench.

[wykikitoon 28475]

I think its fair Botman drops to the bench for this, so at least Wor Eddie has made one call.

Tripps nowhere to be seen?

Joelinton is using him as a shin pad. Hopefully he works better than the fanny pad he used against Brentford.

[PaddockLad 22422]

Felling good. Got Peacock on . Hasn't started yet 🤣

[Dazzler 16111]

Shite shot but well pressed.

[PaddockLad 22422]

Oh .. theres a film starting...

[Howmanheyman 43811]

Piss poor from a player I'd expect a better finish from.

[SoHelpMeGod 241]

Only one of the best sides in the country, not too bad!

 

Fuck it, back the lads as always and let's have these. A hattrick each for both of our wingers would be nice lol

[Christmas Tree 6685]

Fucking Hall man. What a player he is going to be

[SoHelpMeGod 241]

Good bit of fight and skill from Tonali there

[Dazzler 16111]

How the fuck isn’t that a free kick?

[OTF 10527]

Why did they get to take it again after shoving Schär?

[Howmanheyman 43811]

Wtaf? A free kick to us so he let's them take another corner?!?!

[Howmanheyman 43811]

I fucking give up with this league and the officials, like, fuck me. 

[Dazzler 16111]

What a save

League being handed to the "elite" clubs on and off the pitch and they're not even fucking trying to hide it. Shameful

[Dazzler 16111]

That’s given if it’s on Haaland btw. Never a pen, but it’s definitely left to VAR to overturn at the other end

[Howmanheyman 43811]

Should've played advantage, refs US.

[Dazzler 16111]

Cherki pointing to big Joe clearly indicating he should be booked. Where was Cherki’s card?

[Dazzler 16111]

Fuck that’s a pen that.
