The bench should not dictate a win vs Burnley
It's criminally bad not to beat a weak team with 2 away wins in their last 2 seasons (including this)
That's as bad a result as you can get IMO
Only three subs allowed there mateKane was completely gassed past 75 - bring him off, bring Janssen on to stick out his a*se and keep possession in the corner.
KWP - bring him on to sit ahead of Trippier, who cannot defend to save his life, and provide some full-back cover.
Winks - bring him on earlier. 75th minute, maybe. Dembele was hobbling around on one leg near the end, why Winks was held back until six-odd minutes before the end is beyond me.
Dao Sanchez - send him on earlier as a quick, warm body to shore up the back three, if necessary.
Or bring on two players at once in the 75th minute - or three players in the 80th, or *something* similar to show the team that sleepwalking into an inevitable f*cking goal conceded isn't on.
Sorry mate, got to disagree
Christian was pretty poor today, but no one on the bench to swap him and Son with.
Can see why he wants Barkley
Dangerous view.....
We'll see...No he won't don't be fudging stupid
1 point from what was a guaranteed 6 last season
lots of hiding and easy option taking
I'm so tinkled off, I gave them a ton the other day for CL tickets, if we play like this against Madrid & Dortmund we'll set some CL records
It is too early to write anything off, but its unlikely we will win the league. Without Rose and Walker/Aurier and unsettled at a new ground, we've made a poor start to the season.
We need someone in midfield I think. A bit of quality in there who could help us along. A Schneiderlin or Carrick type.
Let's look on the bright side. If we fail to make Europe this year, we'll win the league next season. That's what happens now, right? Nice way to see in the new stadium.
What's the manager meant to do?
His choices from the bench
A keeper
A youth team player
A new signing who has just got here
Sissoko who he wants rid
Janssen who he doesn't fancy
Winks
KWP
