    Aye, we've been crap. Suspect Szoboszlai (and perhaps the Greek scouser) won't be on the pitch for too much longer.

    Ibou injured too. Goe Jomez on for him.

    I feel like Szoboszlai is the sacrificial lamb of this system. It seems to be his job to run after everything but they dont tend to use him in the build up much. Doesn't get the best of him.

    Surprised they didn't check that for Nunez being offside and interfering.

    Are Villa good enough to lock out 4th? If not then almost anyone could potentially get it.

    I think the relentlessness of all the games could catch up with quite a few teams this season. Chelsea strong contenders for top 4 on the back of their giant squad and being able to essentially operate two sides. But also gives a chance to outsider operatives able to capitalise on fitness advantage and preparation time.

    Initially I was fearing a very fallow winter based on the way Maresca's Leicester went to shit last year, but in that league of course you have to play a billion games and we've been able to rest players in midweek which as you say is a huge advantage. I think top 6 rather than top 4 though, as we're fundamentally still quite bad.

    Spurs and United are the unknown quantities I suppose.

    No time added on in the Wolves game. Time keepers showing some mercy.

    This would have hurt less than losing 4-3 in the last minute of extra time.

    Proper comedy, although well taken, goal for Palace there.

    Looking a bit grim for Gary O'Neil.

    Hednesford Town (the Gateshead slayers and lowest side in the draw?) cruised through into the second round.

    Think Horsham ran into an on fire Will Grigg today, so no FA Cup heroics this year.

    That's what I get for BBC putting up a video of their 3rd and thinking 3-0 was the final result.

    As impressive as this seems, would Jimmy Thelin winning the SPLSIB (Scottish premier league sponsored by irn bru) with Aberdeen not be a much bigger feat?

    Lost 6 zip to Celtic in the league cup semi so the gulf in class is still there. Wheels will come off at some point.

    Dons fans feel like they’re living in a fantasy though. Not blowing teams away but consistently grinding out results.

    Tottenham should spend less time trying to hold on to and foul the opposition on corners and more time just trying to defend.

    This is why you can't have a goalkeeper that could be bullied by a stiff breeze.

    Watched about 15 minutes while the grand prix's been off, neither of these teams have much going for them. That Ugarte in midfield is being walked all over like a doormat.

    To say this game has been low quality would be an understatement.

    Rashford is a lazy cunt as well. The sooner United can be rid of him the better for them.

    Pochettino was fucking tragic but having to watch Maresca might be worse purely for the fact he seems to have the media in the palm of his hands. They make out as if he’s some tactical genius and he’s doing a great job.

    Laughable exaggeration by Hojlund but the keeper is absolutely brainless to go in like that and give him the opportunity.

    This manager also somehow rates Madueke, Mudryk and Neto over Nkunku. It’s sickening

    Proper bald men and combs this, possibly literally if Maresca takes a wrong turning at full time and finds ten Hag's personal grooming kit left over in the bowels of Old Trafford. My main interest here is hoping Rashford gets a second yellow and some filthy narrative around him, because he's a complete cunt.

    We should have walked that, too many good situations pissed away by the various shit wingers. Still, at least we didn't lose.

    Guaranteed to set up in the exact same way next weekend. Will be the 5th and 6th straight games of 11 changes which I’m sure is working wonders also
