That was unforgivable not to score then. Dear oh dear.

Our front players just aren’t good enough. I concede it would be a good game for Nunez to come on with his pace and he’s good as an impact player.

Yeh Arsenal proving they’re a step or two ahead us in terms of where we are. People talk about this being a Klopp version 2 side now but the new front players are no where near as good as the old front 3.

I think Jones has been key in our turnaround in form from the tail end of last season to now. Should be first choice in the team now, we’re a lot better balanced with him. He should really have started vs Utd, but he obviously played in Europe a few days before.

Ed, I increasingly think in Nuñez we’ve bought an expensive impact player. Someone useful to come on later in a game. But not good enough to start.

We’ve been not actually been that great Ed this season but have been digging out results. The fact we were top was very misleading. Our front players have a poor record this season. And the balance of midfield not right either, and some players gone off the boil. Lots of food for thought for Klopp. Elliot had a right to start today. And I think Jones should have started but obviously played in Europe last week.

Very poor. Bizarrely we could probably have done with conceding a goal to wake us up and we’d probably then gone on to win the game as we have done previously.

We’ve not actually been that great this season. As Carra has said the results have been there but the performances haven’t. I’ll keep saying Nunez doesn’t work starting in a front 3 until I’m blue in the face – I think he’s far better off the bench later in a game. Szoboszlai gone off the boil recently after a good start to the season. Elliot a must second half.

As strange as it might sound, Man Utd’s spending power has probably exacerbated things. Because the club has still been able to spend big bucks on players and because the revenues are still consistent, the club is arguably too comfortable and has not been able to properly reset. It always knows that if things aren’t going great it can always reach for the wallet and spend big on a player, and that’s tended to be disastrous and just gives the players more power being on big contracts which I think inevitably makes the managers job more difficult. If you look at Arsenal they didn’t have that luxury and the club was able to be reset properly and they’ve actually now benefitted from it. Liverpool had the disastrous owners which nearly put the club on the brink and I think that helped concentrate the minds of the new owners and the club to get things right.
If you really wanted the pipe dream of Ten Hag to work, you needed the club to lose that financial muscle so making the club focus minds on then getting the best young players they could, maybe establishing a new wage structure, etc and then playing the long game and the fans would then naturally be more accepting of that. But this is what keeps happening at the club – they want to make a long term managerial appointment and then undermine that because of their financial muscle and make big money signings who I think inevitably become more powerful, and I don’t think enough due diligence was done on such players and it’s a rinse and repeat exercise.

Think Romero becoming a liability Banjo. Could have been off again today.

Yeh some surprising results. Think the fixture congestion starting to affect teams.

“What does everybody think about Chelsea?”
Can only think a big problem is they don’t have a core of players that have been a the club a long time. You have to have to build a team around that but there’s so many new players they arguably don’t really have one. They need to stop buying players and are going to have to just use the season to settle everyone in.

Think things will at least wait for the reported Ratcliffe deal?

Still worth a punt on Man Utd coming back to win. They’re very reliable vs clubs below them.
