          Red, it’s a shame on Southampton giving up so easy, I remember one game we also had 9 players against 14 for virtually the whole game we only lost 2-0 and both goals came late in the 2nd half.

            No I agree Sean and I’m certainly not writing a player of Thiago’s quality off. I do think experienced players like him should carry a certain expectation though in terms of being able to hit the ground running. You expect a certain settling in period with young players but more experienced and/or expensive players naturally carry more expectation, hence the increased pressure on the likes of Thiago and Havertz/Werner for example. Way too early to write them off but I don’t think it’s too soon to question their performances so far. Thiago is a brilliant player though, regardless.

            Yeah I’m aware they tried to keep Thiago. They tried to keep Hargreaves and Schweinsteiger, too, if I recall correctly. My point is whether they went all out to keep these players or whether they knew they were no longer able to perform to the levels required and only offered something half-heartedly. I’ve no idea if that’s the case. I’m just saying it’s very reminiscent of the top players we thought we’d signed from them, only to have our fingers burnt.

              Just some fans write everyone off to quickly. Some of the bullshit coming out of some Liverpool fans is embarrassing

              Disappointing season so far but plenty of reasons why

                Completely agree Sean. As I say, I think you’ll still get second, even with the injuries. Still think Thiago will come good, too. Every team has blips. People are far to quick these days though to label blips as crises or collapses.

                  My beef with our midfield was that we needed more dribblers to drive forward and score more goals and share the burden. Thiago is more like a Xabi Alonso, something we weren’t particularly short of. But when he became available, I just think the club perhaps felt he was too good to turn down.

                    Hats off to city lads. Unstoppable when like this. Defences win leagues and they are very solid. Dias up there as signing of the season. Only 23 and a brick of a centre half

                    Cancelo having a great season. Stones very much improved. Be interesting to see if They can really push for the cl now

                      Mikius, keita or ox should be the player you are describing chum. We need a bit of drive from midfield.

                      Ox is no were near the player he was after his acl

                      Keita we can forget about. Injured far to much

                        Think we’ll have to ditch both in the summer Sean. They seem to be injured more than they play. Keita is almost the definition of flattering to deceive.

                          I entirely agree with Kopp. Too many games in such a short period. They have just rescheduled our game against Everton for this month 7 games in 21 days. Plain stupid.

                            CL …You need a lot of luck to win it.

                            I hope I live long enough to see it.

                              Will be interesting to see how Tommy Tickle’s team ethos is coming together against what will probably be a more attacking team than his first games. For me again the result is not really as important as the development of the team. Hopefully we’ll be organised at the back but not as ponderous going forward as we have been…..Pagan

                                  Good to see James back in the right wing back role as he will be stronger than CHO defensively with CHO moving forwards

                                    Tuchel in a way resembles to Klopp with his aura. I think he’ll go places with Chelsea.

                                      How poor is Dier Mind you I’m still not sure about Werner.
                                      Chelsea should win this easily So far they are miles better. 30 mins gone, have Spurs had an attack yet?

                                          Thought Tiny Weener did well to get in between Dier and the ball, not sure he got kicked hard enough to go down like that, but that’s modern footy for you…..Pagan

                                            Spurs have been abysmal

                                            Excellent from Chelsea
