    Looked a comfortable win that. 3-0, shared goals around. Nice clean sheet, albeit gave away couple decent chances.

    Hopefully vvd suspension done now (surprised haven’t announced anything else following the charge?) and players go off to international duty before coming back with clean bill of health.

    Away to Wolves. Home to West Ham. Two games should win but also two potential banana skins with West Ham looking much better. 10/12 before internationals including away games at Chelsea and Newcastle is decent. Think would have expected us to win the two home games, undefeated against wary season contenders for top 4 away is solid.

    It was comfortable really. Villa had a couple of half moments but nothing more really. We dominated the game and scoreline was fair

    Well good win with the surprising bonus of a clean sheet .Biggest surprise is that there were only 3 goals as it easily could have been 6-3

    villa really poor tactically. really played into our hands but...

    macallister really good at 6
    Szoboszlai ate them alive
    Jones did fine imo plenty of winning of the ball etc

    that gives tremt a platform to ping ball after ball at the fast lads and the sapce was there all day to do so.

    salah should have had 2. nunez 3 and daiz 1. they ended up with 1 plus og

    alisson made 2 really good saves though. has to be said we left them to cross everything.

    That was a bit boring after the excitement of last week. :)
    Szobobollob is a star.

    10/12 points.

    that's actually a great start.

    40mins really poor on opening day against a poor Chelsea side that a few.more prep games might have solved but aside from that we've overcome disgraceful reffing and var.

    next block of 4 is interesting now. not easy either

    Szbos is a baller, delighted with his start at Liverpool.
    Good to see tenacity in the press and effort from midfield so far this season.
    Also great to see OG get off the mark this season, OG contributions will be vital this season, along with Ahmed's

    Chelsea can always be a pain at the shed so yeah a point isn't a bad result.

    We were not great at early kick off last season. 12:30 kick off against Wolves will be a good test.

    Szob is a one man midfield .
    tbh he has been a bit of a revelation as there didn't seem much fuss about him and yet he appears to be an absolute baller .

    totally different positions.

    you should be saying what form of numbskull buys a top no 6 like fernandez then pays him as no 8 so they have to buy 3 more no 6s and end up with no number 8s

    lol
