A lb? Why lmao.

Because Robbo has fallen off a cliff, he was shocking yesterday yet again.

Thats a bit dramatic. The midfield is a mess, we basically dont have one so naturally the defence is going to get exposed. Robertson is fine. CM is the priority for sure.

It's not as high a priority as cm, but he's been terrible, I've said it a few times but if Trent was to put in the performance levels of Robbo for the past few months he would be getting it from all angles. He gives away possession more than anyone else in the team, constantly out of position, looks like he's running in treacle just as much as Fabinho and Hendo and makes the wrong decisions time and time again.

Literally the only one that was contentious was the offside. Outside of that City got the usual glut of soft free kicks from Mahrez going down when a defender got near him. Somehow managed to get only 1 minute of stoppage time in the first half despite there being at least 5 or 6 minutes of injury stoppages in the half.

City wouldn't be complaining if they scored that goal. They're more than happy to bend and break the rules.

Think he should have dropped JL tbh. Eddie's call though.

Mental
Newcastle vs Fulham is a top 6 fixure

Hah

Yeah, doesn’t set a good example. Thought Howe had a bit more about him than that.

Bruno coloured his hair.

Normally means a goal

 

[Bigpig]

Omg though that was a Longstaff miss again.

Some block

 

[JamesH85]

How do the chances keep fallign to longstaff all the time recently. Ball from Bruno was sublime though. Bruno is sooo good.

DM in and move Bruno up the pitch.

Palace on top at Chelsea. I have a feeling every team feels they have a chance now against Chelsea and want to play them ASAP.

 

[The_One]

Mudryk is in the crowd wonder if he will change his mind with another chelsea defeat today

 

[JamesH85]

That Bruno injury is concerning.

Can't see him coming out second half.

 

[JamesH85]

that dive from longstaff

 

[JamesH85]

Can't see him coming out second half.

Doesn't look good, he's hobbling now, could have done with Wilson scoring there!

Bruno breaking down there. Suprised we let it get that far

Time to reshuffle.

Isak or Maxi on and Joe dropping into middle

I'm hoping they'll get a deal pushed through for someone else in our midfield, Longstaff needs to be replaced long term if we want to improve and move on, he's nothing more than a squad player. When the likes of Bruno gets injured there is nobody to pick up the reigns. Most worrying!
