If he did, England would be a lot better national football team that's for sure.
Today was the worse I have seen Harry play. Not slagging him off, just stating a fact as I saw it. Im sure it wasn’t due to poor application but he just lumbered around the pitch and there were no glimpses of the class that he undoubtedly has. Must have been knackered after the internationals or carrying an injury. Pray he’s different against the Chavs.
A valid point but that's a different context and level of competition. I could say something similar in regard to Son (that being on the field with Kane lifts his game). It's not a criticism of Kane just an observation that his style of play is more effective on the transition and having Son around creates more opportunity for him.
Been trying to get
Igula
to see this for a couple years now. Once folks recognize he no longer can get that half-step to clear for a shot they will better understand what we are actually playing with up top. Oh well.
Great post.
Where gave we improved the first team?
That was the first time I have been to the Letterbox arena since late in 1978. I should have left it another 43 years.
Romero, Emerson, Skipp, Gill
Kane’s passing was off and his hold up play sub-par, but what else was there for him to feed off? I can’t remember any chances made for him. Our forward play was terrible.
Today was abject, yes... awful... totally unessesary performance that makes me question our mental strength (again)
BUT..... as I often try to do, is take our first 4 games into consideration....
Swap today with the Mnan City game (ie: we LOSE against City, as many would have feared) but WON today (as many expected) and we're STILL on 9 points... which, after 4 games, I'd take TBH.
TRYING to Look on the bright side... but today was fucking awful.... KEITH HARRIS AND AWFUL!!
The fact CCV has scores for Celtic only rubs salt in.... but fuck it, had we won 25-0 today, the headlines, and first up on MOTD would STILL have been Ronanchester Utaldo ....so fuck it. Let's stay under the radar. A good day to bury bad news (as the awful, infamous quote goes... 20 years ago today!)

Romero & Emerson still havn't proved that though,,,And Gill still not in our starting XI. SO only really Skipp.,,
Emerson can’t be worse than Aurier or Donkerty.
Only reason Gill isn’t in the 11 is because of a fraudulent, defensive manager, nothing to do with ability
In that case they would both have to go because Zaha put his hand on Tanganga's face in the retaliation.
He also played the racism card.... which I hope/assume OUR JT would never do!
Ironic that his initials are JT....
Reckon one day in the future we'll have a "JT: CAPTAIN, LEADER, LEGEND, YID" flag somewhere in the ground....?
I've said this all season, but our results and performances have been worryingly close to those of AVBs infamous second season.
Narrow, barely interesting 1-0 wins and then out of nowhere, get utterly trashed by a supposedly 2nd rate team. That season it was West Ham, this season it's obviously Palace.
The twatting came a little earlier than that season.
I said this at the time he was appointed, but I suspect Nuno will be gone before Christmas.
Whilst it's certainly not all his fault, he's being made to play the same shite as the last two coaches, he showed today he has no idea what to do when the plan isn't working. He did nothing to stem the tide against Wolves either.

I was at that game - was carnage after the game kicking off all over the place
Those two players are regular internationals. I'm certainly not a fan of Doherty but Aurier is a decent player in 8 out of 10 matches.
For all we know, Royal could be an utter waste of space. I won't write him off after today as everyone was donky shit bad but let's not assume the grass is greener.
Funny thing is I’ve actually been really encouraged by the performances of all our CBs this season.
Dier before going off was dominating benteke and I thought Japh was also really good before the red. Rodon too came on and did well.
I feel we do actually now have a decent range of CBs
Lo celso and Romero and Dav. will have to be ready to go for Chelsea because we’ll have little other choice

I've been sleeping and dreamt about us losing.
Not gonna wake up.
