Agree with this except I’d say the problem was Alexis only. Really has been off the pace for us this season and hopefully Curtis gets some more game time until Alexis gets up to speed (no doubt just in time for the Internationals and he’ll come back fucked again).
He’ll be ok with a PL and CL medal around his neck.
He still thinks he plays for Cheaty.
I won’t bother watching MOTD tonight. We’re top of the league on maximum points , but we’ll get all the criticism. Everton will get all the praise and Grealish will be the best player in the Premier league.
That goal situation came about because the referee didn’t give a free kick to us instead decided to play the advantage in a situation where there was no point to playing the advantage. Everton had their people back by then.
Alexis was kicked all over today. At some point , I’d rather our players go down.
Not do idiocy like Kerkez but we need to be cynical sometimes for our own good.
Watch it with the final scoreline and with the points table in front of you.
And laugh at their wrist slitting.
We were average this game and this season. Still good enough to get 5 wins out of 5.
He’s usually fairly good at that. My issue with him this season is he gave the ball away far too often (including for the goal) and was poorly positioned. Hopefully the real Alexis will be back soon
The Argentina coach playing him the full 90 min didn’t help matters one bit.
Exactly. And the concern is that the same will happen in the next lot of internationals.
Clubs should have the power to refuse call ups. Especially when the qualification is all but guaranteed.
I think this makes it imperative that we get Guehi done in the winter window and more importantly get an extra body in midfield at the Jan window. If Bajcetic proves up to the task , that’s gonna be very huge for us.
We need to be resting Grav , Mac and Dom whenever we can.
He did frequently rotate with him when he was here.
He may be playing too many minutes, but I suspect it’s more that he still hasn’t adjusted to our new players. He has Kerkez with him on the wing and Ekitiké/Isak up front and Wirtz behind. It will take time.
When he signed, he looked good but not spectacular. I think it will come, but an obvious backup would be desirable.
Grealish needs a pack of nappies for Christmas. I don’t think that I’ve ever seen a bigger baby in my life. He spent most of the game moaning to the ref. Just a talented baby.
All the pressure on the Arse tomorrow.
It’s getting to the state where he needs to step up big time. Otherwise we’ve got Rio and Chiesa in there.
I know he played a crucial part in the first goal but he’s been wank the entire season
They’ll need to win to maintain their spot at #2.
A pacifer might work better and really match his look
