I dunno, there appears to be very little between Emi and Elliott in terms of talent, but Emi is nearly 30, has a year left and will probably want another 3 year contract on big money. Might be last chance to get good money for him and we have a replacement on the books.

Emi's give and go to Morgz helped get us back in the game. The Little Prince is here to thrive.

It was two 1-2s between them in a real tight space. Beautifully worked and deserving of a goal.

Maybe in the summer but Buendia has been brilliant for us this season. No way will he be leaving. I'd be ok with Sancho going though.

If we have like real money we can spend on non former players -  I think Ampadu at Leeds has progressed really well. They will hardly sell this month though. He's a good age, very comfortable on the ball, good positional sense.

I really like Ampadu.

thanks that was lovely .  There was also some other interplay in the corner that was the most quick fire passing i have ever seen and we had been rubbish 😳😃

What has struck me of late is how good we are playing right through the middle of teams with close control and intricate passing. That goal the other night, Buendia at Newcastle, the two at Spurs are just some examples. We really are a joy to watch at times.

It worries me that we're turning to him because he's not right for us and it feels desperate.

I agree.
If Unai doesn’t want him, and has kept him away so far,  why play him at all now?
He adds nothing to what we already have.

If we end up paying £35m for him then it's another huge transfer market mistake.

Strange choice of game to use him when we had barkley on the bench..onana clearly has a injury hence why he wasnt used

Keep him out of the squad. Nothing against the bloke, but that crazy winning run we were on coincided with hi being out of the squad and I just think he is all wrong for us.

It coincided with our best 3 midfielders being fit.
