Super nervous.

Well they clearly scouted the wrong left back. Don't get me wrong it's on the manager too. Guardiola scouted and spent huge amounts on fullbacks. We have taken Milner out of there, replaced him with worse and brought in a back up we don't use. Meanwhile we spend another 40 million at the deadline on a wide player.

Exactly...

Error leading to goals Leo. I don't think as a manager you can substitute him after the first.

Think the summary is it was a shambles.

You don't substitute a defender after one error. That sets up a toxic environment and makes them even more tentative. Sorry I don't buy your argument. No manager would have subbed Moreno after one mistake. The issue is we have had 2 games this season where a defender has made 2 individual errors leading to goals. The issue is that the players we have do not have the concentration levels of top class defenders. Therefore whatever is on the training pitch is wasted due to errors. The real issue therefore is why didn't we address this over the summer. If VVD is the only solution then our scouting department needs to be reassessed. Yep. Which makes the summer so baffling.

Case the issue is this team is fragile mentally and don't seem to bounce bank. I could do without another rut.

I'd sell him even if it means losing Coutinho. His decision making is possibly the worst in recent memory.

Henderson is amongst the most defended players. In summary Can, Henderson and Wijnaldum isn't a midfield that lends faith that trophies will be won.

Henderson's loss of possession leading to the corner and then the corner concede had that strange feeling of inevitability. We don't have leaders. This teams heads fall. No leaders on the pitch with any authority.

This feels like a loss.

If we get Goretzka I don't mind. Goretzka, Henderson, Milner, Keita and Wijnaldum. That's pretty good.

Goretzka to Liverpool according to the Daily Star (I know)

It is also due to the fact that we have a goalkeeper who doesn't make as many top-drawer saves as required.

Think he's done. If there's a mental side, it's gone for him.

Not as a replacement but Loftus Cheek anyone?

Link? Quote? I think he's gone. .

It has to be said our form has notably dipped when he's been in the team vs. when he hasn't. That could be down to anything. But I think he's going to be sold in Jan.

I'd replace Firmino with Neymar.

Completely different role, think he challenges more of a Can, Wijanaldum box-to-box role that the 6 role that Henderson performs.

What sample size are you basing this statement on?

How are we behind these teams. Hope we have had our bad patch.

If Coutinho had to go would anyone buy Sanchez?

Arsenal will equalise. They are just that kind of team. I have made a fool out of myself there.

Harsh but fair. His dummy at the end of the first half was horror-inducing.
