A lad who can go passed people and commit defenders is worth their weight in gold. Richie could end up a bargain.

 

[TheBlueGibbon]

Liking our forward play (bar the crab that is Morgan Schneiderlin) - quick touch football, fits some of our players imo.

Yep, offensively we're much better than we were last season. We're making chances but just not scoring them yet. Defensively, we're abysmal.

 

[Bluewolf]

Well done Richarlison. The one bright spot.


Having Walcott on the field would help massively.

So would replacing Baines, kean and jags

 

[Bob Latchford]

Can anyone see what Silva is trying to do? Nothing has changed

We looked better a few games ago, after the 22-0. I hate our midfield.

 

[andy4efc]

HT,keeper probably should do a touch better

Nonsense, keeper had no chance of that.

Dude, they are playing COMPLETELY differently. If you can't see that, I suggest a couple coaching clinics, maybe a book or two.

 

[PeregrineT]

With decent midfielders neither chance is there

That too. It was a conspiracy of at least 3 players, as was the first goal

An Lookman.

 

[Ring master]

Please just stop

??

He's trying to sign some decent defenders.

Fully agree, but it’s the middle part of the field from defence to attack who look clueless.

 

[ToffeeDan]

Just need another 9 with the attitude and effort of Richo to go with Pickford in nets and we'll be fine.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Yup, exactly.
The less said about our defending - the better.

 

[Tak]

Richarlison really does look a cut above.

Rest of the team...too many with metal issues, confidence/decision making I mean: Keane, Jagielka, Schneiderlin, Sandro, Siggurdson too.

Our CBs look terrible.

Gueye I like, an actual footballer. Realised he had to drop back to give our crap CBs an extra man and do their job of forward passing on their behalf.
