    Watching the Liverpool game.

    A few things: From an Attacking perspective they are going to be even more dynamic and dangerous. Will score a lot of goals.

    But they are soo open. Don't have a DM.. Kirkez and Frimpong are both attacking fullbacks, Konate is error prone and Van Dijk is past his best.

    Bournemouth are 1-0 down but should be winning this. They had the better chances.

    Agree - Liverpool look decent going forward and Ekitike looks a hand full.

    Bournemouth just don't have enough quality in forward areas... and their goalkeeper is trash.

    Good game - but Liverpools forward quality won them the game.

    They could easily have conceded 4-5 though.

    This is why investing in your attack and getting transition threats/chance creators are so important. You can rely on outscoring the opposition with players like that. I just don't believe we have enough of those types of players in our squad. Eze would have changed that, but doesn't look like that's gonna happen now.

    Liverpools midfield looks weak to me.
    That might be an issue for them in the bigger games.

    Yeah I thought they looked like swiss cheese in MF.

    That will get exploited this season

    Sure but the saying goes' Attack wins you games and Defence wins you titles'.. or something like that.

    Potters West Ham side look soo disjointed and disorganised.

    I reckon they are going to get relegated.

    It's amazing that this guy was one of the favourites for the England job and landed big money move too Chelsea.

    He's looked clueless since leaving Brighton.
