After watching Bristol City again last night, if Ralph fails to keep us up we should go all out to get Lee Johnson. Every season he has had to contend losing 3-4 of his best players, and then got the most out of his squad. Also great and turning games around and utilising subs to great effect. A really good motivator, and will have great knowledge of the league. It wouldn't surprise me if a lower Prem team goes for him this season Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

He just needs that first goal, he's been a bit unlucky so far. Will definitely be an asset for next season in the Championship though. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Should VAR be overruling the ref's decision on a challenge in the middle of the pitch? Klopp is raging, but how far back should it go in the build up? It was the same when Salah was offside against us last season for the equaliser. It's got the majority of the decisions right, but the FA haven't worked out yet how to use it properly. There's been several occasions where penalties should have been awarded. Take it away and it'll be back to people moaning. Without it we'd be bottom of the league so I'm not complaining at the moment but they still need to do some serious work on it Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Certainly been better than Gunn at keeping goals out Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

That's where we will be staying unfortunately. We are lucky to have as many points as we do, we just won't be able to win enough games to stay up. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Awful. Ralph seems to have gone backwards after initially getting a tune out of this team. I've always backed him but now starting to question him. The playing squad just isn't good enough. Gunn has made mistakes the last 2 games. We've had no decent cbs for a few years now. The midfield trio are too pedestrian, Hoj and JWP may have passion, but their ability is limited, JWP really adds nothing in open play. They are too safe, and there is no one to drive the ball forward. Ings puts the effort in, but isn't helped much by those behind him. I'm not sure if we can get enough results to be safe this year. We've been going downhill for over 3 seasons now. The main offender in all of this is undoubtedly Les Reed, and now others are having to try and sort out the mess. Sure it's early days in the season, but I'm struggling to name three teams who have looked worse and more vulnerable than us. Last season Fulham and Cardiff were doomed early on. The 3 promoted teams are already showing some fight and its very worrying. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Even at this early stage we look doomed. To be in control for the first 15 mins then concede such a soft goal is unacceptable. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Wouldn't fancy us to win against any of those at home though. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Enter Paulo Gazzaniga Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Will be a tough game, but Chelsea are not as strong as they have been in recent seasons. I think we might just grind out a 1-1 draw. (Abraham 18, Redmond 68, Hojbjerg sent off 81) Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

It's a valid point regarding rebuilding, after the mess Les Reed left us in. I'm amazed 'Ole' keeps using it as an excuse for Utd, maybe Ralph should use it more to buy himself some more time. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Missed opportunity for at least a point. Sad to say, but it's difficult to pick 3 worse sides than us. Luckily Watford aren't picking up points, but undoubtedly we are going to be in another relegation scrap with no improvement from last year. I'd be surprised if we are not in the bottom 3 by the end of October. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

I think that's our best back 4 line up, better late than never. Plenty enough to get at them and win comfortably. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Looks a tough run. The most winnable games are Wolves and Everton. We really need to take 7 points minimum but 3-4 looks more likely. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

McCarthy Cedric Bednarek Yoshida Bertrand Hoj Romeu JWP Boufal Redmond Ings We can't afford to be nervous, as sh1t as they are they will be fired up for it Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Waste of time Liverpool have won the league already Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Everyone seems to be raving about West Ham. They have had a decent window, better than their usual scattergun approach. But their results aren't exactly much more impressive than ours given who they've played. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

This is an incredible stat. We are all slating the best CB in the league. All jokes aside it is a fairly good indicator of performance Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Such an overrated side. Seem to be many pundits' picks to break top 6. They are a bit like the new West Ham, paying all that money for Iwobi, for example, is just reckless spending. And they still have Calvert-Lewin leading the line, I don't see him becoming anything more than another Victor Anichebe. The way the table has gone so far is really interesting. No real standout sides apart from City and Liverpool, and no side playing particularly poorly. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Title race nearly sorted already, can't see Liverpool losing a game this season. Mane taking over as their most important player. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

This is the sort of game we have lost for the last 3 seasons. They are a tough side to play and can't see us getting anything. Sheff Utd 2-0 Saints Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Looks a stronger division than last year. There doesn't seem to be any completely hopeless sides this time. We've looked OK in parts, but Ralph has inherited a mentally fragile squad, and I just think we will come up short in the games where we need points such as sheff Utd next up. Wouldn't be surprised to see us bottom within the next few weeks. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Spurs throwing away points again. At this moment even 3rd place is anyone's. City and Liverpool ahead of the rest already. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
