    Mac Allister seriously needs taking out of the holding role. Caught with the ball way too often. He's gonna cost us a good few goals playing in that role.

    It's notoriously called the friendly derby. Families split on support etc. Hate each other for a few hours then back to normal.

    The latter will get worse when Everton move stadia as their new one is right on the docks which is right by the city centre.

    As lol as it is when it's not you, but that's not a red card.

    Referee has been giving everything to Liverpool so far so that was always gonna come. Lucky if either were yellow cards.

    Reminds me of the Jota red. Absolutely shouldn't be combining to make a red card, but when you're on a yellow and you dive in like that, that's how it's going to go.

    Post international early games should be binned. Both sides were terrible today. But neither as bad as the referee.

    All early kick-offs should be binned.

    I assume 'the Asian market' is why they even exist, as they're dreadful for everyone else.

    TV rights in general and you also need to stop the evil working class people from having a beer before the start otherwise they'll start boxing each other and I'm not talking Queensberry rules.

    The VAR obviously has someone other than Neal Maupay or the Burnley penalty taker FGS today.

    Thiago Silva and Cucurella starting at the back and no recognised striker. Saka against Cucurella and Jesus/Martinelli in Silva’s channel

    I saw the other day that Silva wasn't getting his contract renewed and thought of you. Just 7 months to go.

    Gateshead's match against Chesterfield was stormed off or whatever. So Rob Elliot has to wait to get his first match in charge. Rather than field applicants, the board went with him as an interim boss.

    Got to say, as I search for some form of sport today that isn't going to be an epochal disaster, I fear a bit for our left side here. Hopefully it's Mudryk's breakout game but that's probably a 40/1 shot.

    An excellent turnaround from Leeds. 2-0 down at half time away to Norwich to win 3-2. I don't see anyone other than Leicester winning the league, even at this early stage. But hopefully Ipswich drop off and we can chase second place.

    The current squad is a breath of fresh air after ripping out the majority of the over-valued, over-paid wasters of the last couple of seasons.

    Stamford Bridge too small for him. Moving to Wembley when they upgrade the stadium should do him well.

    Jorginho penalty here since Havertz on the bench.

    Bournemouth gifted Wolves the winner. Bournemouth were down to 10 men and had goal kick in the last minute. Neto decided to play it short under pressure, Billing got robbed for a tap in. Silly.

    Not sure playing with no striker is going to help when holding onto a lead and dropping back.

    They are going to have to loosen the rule on handball, it’s absolutely mental that we’ve had two game tipping incidents today being a ball inadvertently hitting a defender on the arm from about 30cm.

    How do you teach a defender to ignore natural instincts when jumping for headers?

    I think current official thinking on the topic seems to be 'unlucky m8'.

    We were really good in that half. Centre backs are a bit all over the place though so I fully expect them to drive in three second half.

    Gallagher and Rice, is there anything setting them apart except one has performed regularly for a shite side and the other has had to fight harder for first team mins? Enzo and Caicedo continuing to outclass the opposition but the Norwegian Bergkamp can't ever be ruled out of lighting up a game (unless of course it's a meaningful game against respectable opposition).

    Cucurella has played well so he’s due a bombscare moment.

    Would be taking Mudryk off for Jackson and sticking Palmer out wide. Not the game for Mudryk at all.

    Not watching, but is Cucurella playing well because he's playing as a leftback rather than in a 3? Also, is Colwill playing in the middle?

    Yes and yes. To be fair to Cucurella he’s played well last few games at right back as he’s just been told to defend and nothing else

    Aren't they very much on brand for Spanish goalkeeping, with the good ones of the past 20 years being the historical anomaly?
