Howe’s squad rotating league cup champions elect v Gemmill’s premier league survival specialists

[wykikitoon 19490]

Id take Murphy off for Osula. 

[wykikitoon 19490]

Fuck. Sake. Tonali giving the ball away now.

They will probably score from a screamer like always turning the gane on its head.

 

We aren’t too bad actually but just lacking the final cutting edge

 

Worried about our striker situation. Not easily rectified. 

[ewerk 29826]

That was a sitter for Gordon.

[wykikitoon 19490]

Wrong option by Gordon. 

 

Joe is stinking too. 

[LongTimeAdmirer 1214]

Fuck this chook is horrible

Think he's done some good stuff personally. Never good in the box though. 

[Isegrim 9612]

I see it’s another all our players are shite day…

 

I’d bring on Almiron who could work well with Trippier and Tonali. He is also another one for people to moan about.

[Ayatollah Hermione 13694]

Better team for me. Just need to tighten up in their half and find the finish

Joe’s looking good and almost back to his best tbh and that was an excellent cross by Murphy, wrong option by Gordon.

That's what separates good players from the great isn't it. 

 

We just need to keep our heads here, much better than these overall. Maybe bring Osula on for Murphy honestly. Who knew right wing was going to be such a weak link eh?

[Gemmill 43270]

Compared to how we were playing pre Man City, this is a marked improvement. Just need to get a goal or two in the second half.

Absolutely, it’s not even close. It’s a funny old game though, Fab to take our next penalty though. 

[aimaad22 4014]

Keeps heads and keep plugging away, a couple of more chances will come. We have more than enough to beat this lot

[Gemmill 43270]

I'm up for Joelinton snapping Doucoure for that penalty save celebration too.

Agreed, Big Joe is dominating them.

 

In fact our midfield three are miles on top.

 

Just a shame we haven’t committed Young yet.

[Holden McGroin 6394]

Gordon has played superbly bar the shite penalty but he isn’t a natural poacher. Wilson would have had a goals 2 already. 

[Toonpack 8871]

This Murphy hate is ridiculous 😂

garner and Young should be getting torn apart. Hopefully Eddie can sort this.

[wykikitoon 19490]

I just think Joe's been caught out a few times on the ball. 

[Gemmill 43270]

Seeing the gear this lad in the studio is wearing has made me wonder how Steven Taylor's managerial career is going.

 

If it's lived up to 10% of his introduction video, they'll be flying. 

[Dougle 3241]

Why the fuck let an emotionally charged kid take a penalty like that. FFS

I’ve skipped most of the thread but I don’t think he has been that bad. One of his better performances to be honest.

You obvs don't know Gordon. Similar to others..... 

 

[Ayatollah Hermione 13694]

Not to be all essembee but Murphy constantly shirking aerial duels is getting a bit annoying
