    It’s unbelievable, Micky is almost back and then Davies is injured! It’s ridiculous! Lucky we aren’t in Europe or we would be completely ****ed!

    Hi mate, just letting you know I’ve booked you in for a lobotomy along with Crackers.

    Fun times, eh?

    Dragusin needs to be signed yesterday. Give him a week of training with Micky to work on stuff.

    It’s ridiculous he ain’t in already.

    Offer them £30m and Richarlison, convince them it’s a great deal.

    Heaven forbid.

    Seriously there’s no reason to be squabbling about a few mil here when we’re about to get some money back for Dier and we literally have been playing 2 fullbacks out of position at CB for months. I get we don’t want our trousers taken down but we need it sorted already.

    Ange, man <laugh>.

    Reporter: “Can you afford to lose Dier with Davies now injured?”.

    Ange: “Yes”.

    That was such a frustrating game.
    What happened to Burnley's open, attacking football?
    Can't really blame them for shutting up shop, though.
    Nearly worked.

    Our final ball and last chance decision-making tonight were awful.
    So many crosses hitting the first man after an extra, unnecessary touch.
    Kulusevski and Johnson the main culprits, I think.

    Davies and Emerson played very well and so one is automatically injured. Typical.
    The squad's getting very threadbare. Time to get the chequebook out.

    I've just read elsewhere that the match pundits were all ex-filth.
    Ian Wright, Lee Dixon, Alan Smith and Karen Carney.
    They even had Laura Woods presenting, who's a filth fan.
    Glad I didn't have to listen to that bunch of ****ers! <laugh>

    The good

    The goal!
    What a strike.

    Royal...an excellent performance
    Davies...see above
    Bentencur...brilliant player
    Porro... very good
    Vicario...Great influence at the back
    The subs bar Hoejberg and Sessengon
    The crowd...didn't get frustrated and kept on singing
    VDV being on the bench

    The not so good
    Johnsons decision making ... kept them pushed back...kept showing for the ball but his final decision was poor more often than not.
    Lo Celso ... see above

    The bad
    Richarlison's finishing...needs so many chances and is poor at holding the ball up.
    Gil ... weak on the ball and no end product

    The ugly
    Skipp...just can't step up
    Hoejberg...doesn't suit our system

    The elephant man
    Sessengon...no words can describe just how poor that cameo was.

    plus Stewart Robson was on co-comms and didn't hide his colours!

    He'll need to get used to the word shoot from the crowd when he's on the ball in future.

    Just a friendly reminder that Juventus sanctioned the sale of Rodrigo Bentancur for an initial £15.5m.

    We also bought Vicario and Udogie for similar prices. Mad value from Serie A.

    Wasn't that "routine" , but I guess you thought
    it would be "routine" enough to not post anything
    on the live match article, right ... ??
