I'm sure Walker will feel better in the morning.

Pep rule number one - no sulking.

We need a rocket up our ass soon, we really are painful to watch, but most of all, we didn’t beat anyone out of the clubs that are relevant this season, so it’s a worry.

We’ve been shit, but we are in a really good position considering.
But we need a top signing in the middle.
Fucking odd season.

See above. Didn’t see it myself.


Oh nice. Just what you want from a captain.

More proof he’s not captain material.

Pep said he took Walker off because he was tired. Walker must not have got the memo :lol:

Chris Wilder said it felt like his side had played five hours. All that passing is for a purpose.

Half way through the season. 80 points won’t win the League so we have to improve. 57 points to play for. 50 will surely be enough. Will 45?

Foden is playing so well for us..hes more consistent than KDB is IMO.

100% PeP will drop him for KDB.

We score goals. That defence though...take Stones out, and it is dreadful. There was 1 minute at about 89 minutes when they attacked...we were vulnerable, exactly like Palace. Better teams will exploit that, no problem.

Well so far this season Kdb has gone missing in a lot of games, if you ask me. 'Bout time he lofted a few passes to Young Haaland.

Oh, by the way, that pass from young Oscar was so sweet, shame only Phil gets credit for the assist.

Incredible that such young players are not phased by the spectacle.

We have some great youngsters now starting to establish themselves.

To be fair, they didn’t have a single thing to do. I think Sheffield Utd got out of their half twice. A really poor side.

We’ve already seenthe best JC. The treble and 5 trophies in a calendar year isn’t going to be equalled, let alone bettered. Can’t see us having the highs we’ve experienced this year again

Akanji saved an equaliser with a superb block. Ake dealt with balls over the top very well.

That reception for Kev when he was warming up was unbelievable.
In my 50 plus years watching us the only time I've seen anything like that was when King Colin Bell came on as sub for his comeback after his horror injury against the rags

I just have this feeling he wont be the same player as before ( I hope I'm wrong !!) and I'm even more worried Foden will be the fall guy to allow him 'his place back'.IMO Foden has excelled in the central role and I fear he will be moved into a position that he wont excel under just to accommodate KDB again.

I thought we'd scored and perhaps my stream was lagging behind the sound.
