  1. As poor as this is, I’m more inclined to think it will help us with the league game. I’m pretty confident we’re not going to get a repeat of this sort of display.
  2. Yeah, it’s a tired performance. Whatever happens now, I wouldn’t read anything more into it. A Southampton strength starting line-up would have been enough to get the job done in the second leg against Prague.
  3. 7-0 aside, we’ve got a really poor record against them under Ten Hag. One win out of four inside 90 minutes is pretty woeful given their lack of quality.
  4. Everton have been safe since before the season begun. They’re far, far too good to go down and that has nothing to do with the fact that they’re awful and everything to do with the guarantee that there will always be at least three teams who really plumb the depths. How many games have they gone without a win? And still, the only reason it’s remotely close is because of the points deduction.
  5. I think a win next week would more or less guarantee that we won’t win the league game. I felt the same after we knocked Arsenal out.
  6. At first, I thought we’d signed someone who, at this stage in his career, seemed closer to a Championship player than one who’d end up being an outstanding part of a Premier League title challenge. I was completely and utterly wrong, of course.
  7. I feel as though we’ve seen exactly why so much fuss was engineered out of an entirely innocuous error last weekend.
  8. Fantastic performance and, given how good we were, a disappointing result in the end. Desperately need City to get something against Arsenal at the end of the month - Looking at Arsenal’s upcoming fixtures, I think the title race is effectively over if they win that one.
  9. Unless I’m mistaken, we’ve never come from behind to beat them in a league game under Klopp - wouldn’t be the worst day to fix that stat…
  10. I think the best case scenario today is to keep it as close as possible and then sucker punch them late to salvage a point.
  11. A monumental, catastrophic, calamitous, historic error not to send off Havertz, and I don’t think it can really be disputed that there needs to be an extra, play-off title decider game in the event Arsenal win the league by a point or two.
  12. Keep in mind that Arsenal’s next game is a guaranteed three points at home to Brentford. They’ve had a ridiculously kind run of fixtures. Given that Arsenal’s goal difference advantage will be unmatchable by the time we kick off, a draw for us against City would be a very poor result and a loss is unthinkable if we want to retain any sort of chance of winning the title.
  13. The reaction to this is arguably some of the best evidence I’ve ever seen of how zombie-like the British public is. Critical thinking basically doesn’t exist in this country.
