As Sean says, it’s still so early. Aside from City, nobody has been great consistently. Spurs are very much in a honeymoon period which will wear off. The rest are so inconsistent. I doubt anyone will challenge City so it’s already their title to lose.

One normal day of Manchester United news. That’s all we ask. Sancho after Ten Hag suggesting he might not be performing well enough in training when asked why he wasn’t involved today. Not good. Ten Hag is pretty ruthless with things like this as we’ve seen before. If he freezes him out, he better hope the players pick Ten Hag’s side or he’s got a long season ahead

I don’t mind Richards as him and Keane often have some good debates but he’s not particularly insightful.

Arteta really is a strange individual π. Most annoying manager on the touchline and talks some absolute rubbish at times. This is up there with him playing YNWA over loud speakers to prepare his team for going to Anfield.
Arteta: βI said to Havertz: things are hard at the beginning. When I met my wife, at the beginning it was hard to conquer her. It was hard, I had to try and message her, and go, and goβ. π΄βͺοΈ #AFC
βAnd at the end when she says βyes, we can be togetherβ¦β itβs beautifulβ. pic.twitter.com/xnB3fjVnoG

Probably the most lethal striker in Europe after Haaland and Kane Adlab.

If you’re on twitter, give this guy a follow. He does very in depth tactical threads
Manchester United fans should hold their head up high.
United went to the Emirates with an injury-stricken squad which got worse mid-game but still took control away from Arsenal for large periods. Not only that, but they were an inch away from winning via Garnacho.
Patience…

Yes exactly and a lot of teams go man to man now so you absolutely have to have height, hence Havertz at Arsenal and more so Haaland at City. Going long for the big man has come back into fashion again. There were some good Tifo videos about it. Before Hojlund, we completely lacked a physical presence to take advantage of Onana’s excellent ability to pick a pass.

That’s the thing Lukcy. Someone like Osimhen would have probably cost Β£150mil this summer. You’ve then the difficulty now of competition from the Saudi teams. Liverpool have a good attack now but even they’ve spent a ton on money on Nunez who the manager doesn’t seem to know if he trusts or not. I dontthink Cody Gakpo is top class either. A good, steady forward but nothing more.

I think Hojlund will get plenty of service through the middle though Lucky. Fernandes is one of the best chance creators in the league. Shaw delivers a good ball too if he’s allowed to bomb on and is not inverting or filling in at CB.

Yeah thought we deserved a point for sure Lucky. Thought Hojlund looked bright but he has a lot of pressure to carry this season with Martial the only other option up top.

It’s not great is it Lucky? π. Shows how lacking this squad still is though.

I’m also still convinced that De Zerbi will eventually be the manager of this Chelsea side. I hope not but I think that’s just a matter of time.

You look around that Chelsea side and wonder where that billion pounds has gone. It’s not a side that screams quality. So much money spent and you’re playing a CB who turns 39 soon and Jackson up top. There really are so many gaps still.

Gabby Agbonlahor needs adding to that list Sean. No idea how that guy gets employed. Absolutely no idea.

Roy Keane, Steven Gerrard and Vincent Kompany. All incredible captains and winners. Arguably 3 of the greatest the league has seen. All had great first spells in management (Sunderland, Rangers and Burnley). Kompany showing that he’s very much following the same trend the other 2 did though. It’s almost as though the sheer fact of who they are is enough to get their teams on board and instill a sense of wanting to run through brick walls for the manager. That desire does seem to have a limit though, as we’re now seeing again.

That’s it Adlab. I don’t think it’s about getting the cash into the club Threeps but what that cash can do for the team when reinvested. In just 12 months Salah goes into his final year and there’s every chance he won’t sign a new contract. Salah for 2 years or potentially rebuilding the side for the next 10 years? Easy choice for me. I’d sell him. The very fact they’re going for him tells me he’s suggested to them he’s keen which means he’s had his head turned. What Salah are you going to get for the next 12/24 months with that in mind? Selling him and showing the rest of the team that nobody is indispensable would be a big call but one I think they would benefit from in the long term. Spurs wshowing again today what you can do when reinvesting after selling your star player at the right time.
