We go again. Pretty much what was expected.

As expected. Bench doesn't look too inspiring though. Traore, Rashica and an enforcer would make a real difference.

They look very defensive - not surprising.

That bench is incredibly poor.

I think it's safe to say Guilbert and Samatta are both off.

I hope Grealish and Trez really push forward and keep their wingbacks busier.

No Guilbert anywhere to be seen. I think binning him will be a mistake.

Usual team really, thought they might've included a few more of their summer signings.

Oliver Burke was a massive flop at West Brom so surprised he's started. Quick but dosen't have much else to his game.

We definitely need another goalscorer proven I mean.

That's the bench for seeing out a 3-0 lead. It's unlikely to turn a game around.

Is Bert eligible to play yet or are their registration/work-permit matters still to deal with ?

Just turned on Sky to watch the build up, six minutes in they are already talking about the city game later on. Utter drivel. I know I should cancel my subscription but I would miss the cricket too much.

If we are going into our first match with Hourihane in the starting 11 and with Taylor and El Ghazi amongst the subs then that is a measure of how much strengthening is left to do I fear.
