Not a fan of this playing out from the back. We're very vulnerable when pressed.

Saka is the sort of player that, if I was playing my last game before I retired, I'd give a slap with a few minutes left on the clock. He really needs to stop being such an arrogant little shit.

Yes.

Absolutely yes

Mcginn should be subbed not Douglas Luiz

Bailey as a sub isn’t the worst idea. As long he doesn’t spend the time he has running into defenders and giving it away.

Just don't lose villa. That would be hard to take after taking the lead twice.

How big does Martinez think Moreno is?
He's done that twice and blames others.  Martinez must do that pass better.

Always worries me when we play Arsenal.  They always seem to get at him with the mind games

I don't understand how a team can go into the half looking like they can play football, at times, & then come out from the half time team talk looking like they have never met before.

Our back four are too shit for this playing out from the back malarky. Its like asking a pig to fly a Boeing 747...

Going to have to trust Emery on these subs and alterations.
Hoping Ramsey can get involved
Think Kamara has been back to his excellent self.
