I hate the three up front approach when we have a bonafide number 9 as part of it. It's too crowded up there, and defensive lines drop more, further reducing space for Isak. He's a proven goalscorer, the most expensive player in English football, play to his strengths. Salah and Gakpo are looking for goals (badly) and I want them looking for Isak as a priority. If they're the width in the side, stay wide without cutting in for a shot or layoff back to the midfield.

Yep, bang on. Let our opponents come at us, it shouldn't always be us pushing and pushing

[frank the tank]

Is Wirtz back for this

Gakpo surely needs benching.

I actually think Gakpo is more effective as a sub tbh

Yeah this is spot on

[Needles]

Interesting watch about how we play compared to last season

Yeah that’s a good point.

3rd highest transfer fee paid in the history of the game and we don’t pass to him.

[Norbs]

Our best (recent) strikers have been when we were a bit ****. Owen, Fowler, Torres, Suarez all had more space to operate in than we have currently

[DerKrampus]

Much better today, let's see how we fare against Sunderland on Wednesday. I can't believe how well they're playing btw - hats off to them!

[frank the tank]

Yip Sunderland are flying alright. Good recruitment in the summer with some good young players and Xhaka to help them all is a brilliant move as well.

They might struggle soon enough with Afcon imo......I think I heard that they lose 6 players then??? Which is ****in stupid

Well if these 6 players are good enough to keep them up in the games around Afcon it's probably not stupid, but it's quite the gamble.

That's a lot of players to lose in one go, from a squad size and balance perspective

But they probably only are 3 wins away from being safe from relegation, which is pretty incredible at the beginning of December

Idle curiousity, but how many wins away are we from being safe?

well they're above us so more I would guess!

[Friend of Moises]

Good bye, Arne.

[BobTheCharmer]

Don't come back pal. You are out of your depth.

[danperkins]

Yeah just awful tactically, has to go. Dreadful stuff.
