With the 10 game clause - 5 of them have to be in the second half of the season, and we're assuming it's all comps.

He played Thursday and today, so we've got two more left. With Onana and Barkley likely back next week, it seems that another 3 months with no games or even getting on the bench is on the cards unless a new agreement is reached with Liverpool tomorrow.

Of course we missed our all-time Premier League goalscorer in a game in which we lost 1-0. That’s not to say we would have won if he was available, we probably wouldn’t because we were shit, but it couldn’t be more obvious that it would have been better to have him as an option than injured.

Have we ever started with those 4 at the same time - McGinn, Youri, Onana, Kamara?

Tonight made me wonder if Unai Emery is our version of Klopp. Klopp is obviously a much better manager than slot, yet it was slot who won the league. Maybe Unai is going to be the one who builds our club, yet it will be someone else who eventually wins something. I hope not
This is a leap

Kept playing balls into the box from the wings against big lumps who eat that up for breakfast. Should have kept it central and threaded through the middle imo.

Didn't see it that way - the central channel was packed with all of their players, there was little space to thread through balls. We hardly played any crosses at head-height into the box probably for the very reason you state. But for the lack of any other plan, at least throwing Mings or Onana on would have evened-up the odds of winning a header in the box.

It was like a training exercise game, attack versus defence. To lose to these shysters 3 times in 6 months with their painfully limited tactics is both infuriating and embarassing.

I get it if the fact the ball goes out actually influenced the goal - like a cross that went out, or a player dribbling past another by taking it out and then scoring - but it had no impact on the actual goal - we didnt gain any form of advantage from it.


You can’t really get more of an advantage than going up the other end and scoring a goal. We kept it in play that allowed us to do that.
