    Well they are ****e then, it was a definite red card!

    Mbemba has been great and Wijnaldum has been good when he gets the ball but a lot appears to be by-passing him by. Thauvin, was awful in the first 15 minutes, got slightly better. Colback - cack as usual!

    There we go - probably the first of many.

    Not time to start writing off our season though when we started the season expecting to be bottom after four games.

    Also, anyone highlighting Haidara as being ****e, well he hasn't been, not saying he has been great but is doing a solid job with no support in front of him unlike the experienced international at RB has!

    Hope the majority of fans realise this, we have had an incredibly tough start and will definitely start picking up points after the international break! We've shown enough quality and fight to show we will be alright this season!

    You must be a Mackem, we've played well defensively against United and in the first half against Arsenal. We were never going to be going gung ho against Arsenal and don't be surprised to see us playing like against the big 4 teams.
    Do need a new LB though or move Janmaat to the left, play Mbemba on the right and bring on Taylor.

    Wijnaldum, Thauvin and Mbemba have been great so far in the games they've played. I think compared to Kaboul, etc we're not in quite the same position as yourselves just yet. Mitro had a good game last week against United but looks a liability.

    Last season we'd have responded to going down to 10 men so early on by shipping 5 goals. We may not be playing brilliantly or like a team from the past but at least we are a recognisable team. This is so far detached from most of last season its incomparable. We have a horrible start to the season regarding fixtures, always thought we'd struggle but there's enough to suggest we'll be alright this season.

    Defensively he's solid, but when he goes forward he has the final ball only better than Obertan!

    Not sure about that at all! IN this game he hasn't had the opportunity and Thauvin messes up again following a very good ball from Haidara!
