Strange game.apoel have been dreadful.sat really deep and not really pressed us.at one point we had 3 on 1 on a short corner. Difficult to judge performances when its been such a stroll.think we have held a decent shape and moved the ball well at times. Want to see poch be quick with his subs.removing anybody he expects to feature against stoke.thinking probably son,alli and winks. Still not seeing anything from GKN to make me think he can come on and positively effect a game.had plenty of space and ball but done little with it in terms of end product. Aurier has put some decent crosses in but checks back too much for my liking.want him to try and use his pace and go outside his man even occasional.

I guarantee you that each one of you has slagged a player off before and been wrong. Only people who don't have an argument for the current issue will use past posts as their reason.

Still doesn't make Aurier or Nkoudou players we should keep. More faith in Sissoko.

I’ll give you it was forward. 10 yards forward to a stationary player but forward. My comment was about a midfield player being able to play a pass into the space a player is running into. That should be in any midfield players locker that plays for us. Dier and Victor are DMs and even they have a pass like that in their locker. Sorry but he’s know where near good enough to play for us. Sell him and invest the money elsewhere.

He's technically not the best, but even when he's comptent he gets a slating. It's fucking old imo.

I'd like to see dele pushed further forward so he can link up with Llorente and Son a bit more, so far he's been pretty ordinary while those two have been excellent.

Nkoudou looked good for the first 20 mins but then he's started looking more apprehensive to take his man on. I can understand why Poch might think he's not quite up to scratch, he just lacks that level of footballing intellect that our other forwards possess.

Winks is mustard.

Foyth and Sanchez have both been very good so far, Aurier looks error-prone but put a good ball into Llorente for his goal. Rose has had a good game as well.

The less said about Sissoko the better. The man should be running marathons, not playing football.

Think gkn needs to look to come inside to receive more, float. Rather than touchline hugging

Son is a master of what he needs to be

GKN needs to have more faith in his ability. I want to see him hunting the ball down and showing his skill set. He looks a bit reluctant sometimes. He needs to grab this game by the kahoonas and show his are bigger. Needs to see more of the ball, but he's ben fairly decent.

I’m not knocking his effort. He always works hard. He just isn’t good enough. You can’t carry a midfieild player. Means all our midfield creativity needs so come from Winks. Yeah it might be getting old but so is watching us lack quality in such an important position.

Who gives a fuck tonight though, we're playing well as a team.
