    We need to spend around a billion and we might be able to snatch a draw at home to them

    With tactical genius Farke at the helm I doubt we’d get a draw however much we spent.

    The energy of Solomon we are missing for starters , we need gutsy goal scorers also and another leader with ampadu being out , we need cover for him.

    Farke seemed to try do the usual 65 mins bring on subs and also try possession football which everyone told him it would not work against skillful teams , we need to get physical and boss the game.

    True , but we could've changed the result with putting the effort in , there was no fight.

    Just had another thought on how we could've prevented it. We could have thrown a few games at end of last season. Wouldn't have been difficult, could have left Meslier between the sticks <ok>

    Beat us easily because they are one of the best teams in Europe. Have better players and they have more money to hoy at players who we cant ge they are also well established.
    What could we of done to prevent it? Emm a bomb scare probably would of done the trick

    Parked the bus maybe, but then there'd be complaints about that and they'd only have to get lucky with their umpteen shots at goal. We'd also increase the chances of conceding a pen as they'd be free to run into the box.
