Didn't take long for this year's basket case clubs to find themselves in a little league of their own.

Hope it finishes something like this.

Everton

Wolves

Brentford

West Ham

Aston Villa

Southampton

Nottingham Forest

Leicester

Bournemouth 

You can easily perm any 3 from that lot.

Going to be a difficult season, that's for sure.

Calm down. Fulham can easily go on a terrible run soon enough, like a billion promoted clubs before them.

Brighton will not carry on as they are.

In contrast WHU will very likely turn things around.

The only thing that is certain is we are without doubt a bottom 6 team. What I worry about is we are as capable of finishing bottom as we are 15th.

Minor wobble, I still think we have enough to stay up but totally agree  very unpredictable

That is a the terrible Everton - with the loser Frank Lampard in charge - now above us

Alternatively, that's the excellent West Ham with their great manager David Moyes below us in the bottom 3.

Your game is so predictable.

I am sure you wouldn’t have to look too hard to find posts of his mocking Lampard. He changes with the weather and loves catastrophising all things Saints. We probably have a few months of him quoting 10/10 transfer windows. The war in Ukraine is hitting him hard too.

Juventus losing to Monza has to be the result of the weekend.

Monza, in case people don't know, is the team Silvio Berlusconi's bought a few years ago and got promoted last season. Before today they'd taken 1 point from their first 6 games.

I quite liked St Mirren result after that banner

They are have a good back for and power in midfield, but they don’t score many.  we won’t score and they will probably Nick a winner. Predicting another dour 1-0 defeat 

It does seem rather predictable, doesn't it? Let's hope Ralph and the boys surprise us.

It's almost nailed on to be 1-0 to Everton at this point. We barely get anything resembling a scoring chance and they'll bobble one in off of DCLs arse and win.

We'll throw the kitchen sink at them in the last 2 minutes (not really, just a lot of sideways and back until JWP floats one safely into the goalkeeper's arms). Final whistle.

Then they'll roll out Adams or someone else to say, "we have to be better with the ball" or something equally useless...

Rince...repeat...

Angers won 0-1 at the W/E I thought Boufal had scored but he got a 2nd yellow at the end of the match 😄 , the match was highlighted as a Nice player was sent off in the first minute .

Angers team featuring Yan Valery as well. 

Nice had Lemina in midfield.

It's  not the wobble that worries us, its Raplhy Regressing to the worst version of himself, I don't know why, but with the new set up and refreshed squad I thought that was all behind us.

It's worse than regression at times, it's retrogression. Look at the Villa match. No press. No creation. No identity. No threat. Nothing. At the start of his tenure we at least had the press. We're worse than ever at times.

Our boy Edozie scored and  played 70 mins in an England u20 win today. The report suggests he was pretty involved. https://www.englandfootball.com/articles/2022/Sep/21/england-mu20s-chile-pinatar-match-report-20222109

He’s got to start for me, looks electric, get rid of ely

 

I know I know for to protect young players and all that but ralf clearly doesn’t care about that if you look at tino and lavia so can’t see why he isn’t starting.

Trouble is, if Edozie is bunged straight in week after week and he gets injured/burns-out, plenty will jump on him and say why didn't he learn with overplaying Tino. And tbf, Lavia only started a handful of games before injury. With 5 subs available he's a great option off the bench right now (as long as he's used) but Ely does need replacing.

We have World Class free kick taker in the team - IMO we should be playing these quick, tricky players like Edozie and Mara to draw fouls around and, hopefully, in, the box. Yes he's young but all the players bar Aribo we signed in the summer were young... if they're old enough they're good enough. Protect them sure, but if the more senior players aren't doing much right now, I say, chuck them in.

Coming up on ITV4+1 shortly (18:55) Match Time Revisited, Liverpool v Southampton - if you look closely you'll see me (and a few others) bouncing up and down as Stevie Moran slots home the winner

1982 if I remember correctly?

What is that?! Maguire hasn't played, no left back. It has to either be a right back at left back, or someone (Saka?) At left wing back with a back 3. Mess of a line up.

Looks like Walker left back, James rb with Dier and Maguire cb, personally would have had Tomori and Walker cbs with James rb and i guess Trippier left back considering theres no lb in squad at least that weasal Mount isnt starting

Ballard. Get him in the first team.

This has echoes of the season when Shaw made his debut. We were short of a decent left back going into the season and Fox couldn't cope with the Prem, suddenly Shaw comes in and looks brilliant.

 

This season we need a goalscoring striker.... cue Ballard.... 😁

I'm going with the back 3 option, James RWB and Saka LWB. Or some other random bollox.
