Ah mate, immediately talking about how we've been getting battered. This interview should be so easy. Why not try and talk the players up a bit.

Means he won't start Tuesday at least.

If he can run. Would be nice if he could come on and look like a threat.

Great seeing Mo play with a bit of confidence.

I was moaning before that the plan just seemed to be: give it to Rio. But it's alright if he can do that.

People say he's good. Any idea of the kind of fee they're talking about? Just saw he only signed for WHam last summer for £42m Remember a few people after their game at anfield saying he stood out. I hope he likes kicking people.

Sad as it would be if he went, he's got cheesestrings instead of hamstrings these days. We probably need to sign a new number 1 in the summer regardless.

Gakpo will definitely start, but could be him instead of Ekitike. For what it's worth resting players for Tuesday, this is the bigger game.

The noises prior to Wednesday felt like another walloping would have seen him gone. Crazy to think he might have saved his job with a 2-0 defeat.

They'll ask me how I got her I'll say, "I saved my money" They'll say, "Isn't she pretty? That horse called Dignity"

He could have a knock. Will have to wait for what Slot says now.

Ekitike is absolutely stinking out the gaff.

Have we ever scored from one of those throw-ins?

Thinking about that "results are noisy" line again. Just unbelievable arrogance from them to write off the season with this manager and expect people to keep turning up. Another noisy result today eh lads.

What was this?

This is damning stuff. And leads me to thinking that Jurgen and his massive wife must be doing some elite shagging.

Haha yeah I dunno. Not trying to be XG guy, just assuming that Edwards is saying stats are more telling than results. Was going to say it would be fun to see them arguing that when we finish 6th, but obviously they don't worry about communicating with the fans in any way beyond James Pearce long reads.

Not that I've got much time for it, but I've just had a look at the XG league table. Actually has us in 4th, ahead of United in 5th on goal difference. But whatever, there's tonnes of other stats that back up the 'eye test' that says 'we are s***e'

When that story's just come about him and his team "working tirelessly" to fix things. Him squinting into his screen on a Teams meeting by the pool.

Feel like someone will mention this but it gets swallowed up in a big conversation of whether we could work with 3 at the back. Alonso played a 4 with his youth team sides before Leverkusen too.

Looks as though he's in full training today.

Yeah it's weird timing considering we're probably going to lose four of the next five games. Maybe it's a bit of "give him enough rope"

We've been s***e since October. Besides improving set pieces, there's no evidence to show he knows how to fix it.

Yeah, Salah was doing crazy things last season, but it felt like Mac was the one who made us tick. I've banged on about it all season, but still feel like last season was much more like him and Gravenberch as a two sitting. And for all of how bad we've looked this season, we never seem to have tried going 'back to basics' with that move.

The statistics show Mac Allister's fouls conceded massively dropping off this season. Like he's literally not even getting close enough to players to kick them.
