Watching Brighton on MOTD last night playing some brilliant football yet again.

Glad we've ended up with Conte but part of me still wishes we'd gone all out for Potter instead of Nuno in the summer. Can see him ending up at Everton when Rafa inevitably gets sacked and doing well there.
Nah they were playing an Everton side who are falling apart they looked awful. Without Nuno it would mean no Conte. Conte all the way IMO proven winner

Imo very real possibility could come above Chelsea. They’ve got the club World Cup to contend with as well. If things fall our way even in 2 games time could be 4pts behind with 3 games in hand.

I don’t tend to watch many other games that don’t involve Tottenham but I watched the Chelsea game yesterday. The biggest thing that stood out the most for me was just how comfortable each and every player was with the ball and the passing was so quick and crisp from both teams. Unfortunately we are the complete opposite of this and just never seem to be in control for more than a couple of passes. We really need to upgrade to more technical players because until we do we won’t be anywhere near the top of the table for a long time to come.

I was so jelaous when they got Smalling and Jones, thought they would be another Vidic and Ferdinand (not as good but similar impact). Glad I was wrong.

Could really do with Wolves getting something here. United are a bit of a mess but do have a very favourable run of fixtures.

Good start by Wolves.

This Utd team is ancient, they’re basically the LA Lakers of football - Ronaldo is Lebron, Cavani is Melo, Varane is Dwight Howard and Phil Jones is Russell Westbrook

Utd look so damn open with this formation and, like Newcastle, Wolves are playing through them with ease.

They have enough indiviudal quality to save themselves against the weaker teams but I think they'll take some batterings under Ralf if he persists with this 4222/442.

What's with the odds for the Utd game? Almost at evens for a home win. They look pretty full strength.

I'm really impressed with Wolves this season, Lage is doing a good job one to keep an eye on.

United are plying no different to under Ole. Still don't look like they have control of the game and are pressing very loosely. They only look dangerous on the counter.

It's like an extreme version of Nunoball that works just that little bit better. Score few, concede fewer.
