think its been decent myself not sure about all the complaints even before our second.

bunch of debuts, literally a new spine to the team, entirely new system, injury to our best centre back in the first few mins and a bit of a ropey ref yet 2-2. ive seen us have more disappointing halves.

not gonna lie, enjoying it.

Players still lack proper fitness, Son and Deki not good fits for the system unfortunately. They need to stay wide and be able to beat defenders 1v1. Skipp seems to have one move, pass to Kulusevski and move in his space. Obviously things can't look perfect so soon and we had to sub our best defender, plus lost top 2 striker in the history of the club. It will look better with Perisic, Solomon and Lo Celso.

That was bang on 11 mins, didn't they say that there would be more if there's goals or subs during injury time?

Brentford are so well organised and such a threat on the break. Such a tough test for our newly implemented style of play.

Bissouma and Udogie very good. Kulu and Son poor. Ref can go fuck himself.

Playing well. A big problem this half and think it's the only significant problem is son and Kulusevski don't have that acceleration quick feet to beat a player

We knew that we would be defensively frail at the start. Happened at Celtic too. The players will learn.

Van de Ven has been the most composed of a defender I've seen play for us since Toby and Jan prime days. He's brilliant.
