Last season, Saka 40% Mitoma 41.5% Doku 51.5% Last season, at home v Liverpool, Doku attempted 17 take ons and was successful 12 times. That makes James Milner's experience of playing right back, when Doku was successful 5 times out of 7, look relatively benign.

Minteh in the Eredivisie was successful in 50% of the take-ons he attempted. In the Premier League his success rate is just 23.5%. Not a criticism, but a reason to give him time to adjust and realise that he needs to use his teammates more, now that he is playing at a higher level. He needs...

Let's hope Milner's experience is rubbing off. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/james-milner-liverpool-20-years-b2217585.html

Don't forget Barco, this was a particularly bad decision.

You'd imagine Paqueta, Bruno Guimaraes, Alisson and our 2 would all get on the same jet. Maybe Alisson did the booking?

A word of warning, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12387187/Arkansas-man-sexual-relationship-soulmate-1998-Chevy-Monte-Carlo-called-Chase-left-devastated-car-written-routine-check-up.html

Totally agree. I get the feeling he's not wanting to change too much too quickly, but over time he'll realign our style to his philosophy, much like De Zerbi did when he first arrived. I really think Ferdi and Hinshelwood will excell in the wide roles which double up as centre midfielders.

Why would you play 2 number 6s against weaker opponents? Drop Baleba, play Ferdi on the right of a back 4 and play Rutter next to (slightly ahead of) Wieffer.

I suspect that Ayari is only a place holder. Those shots will start going in as soon as it's Matt O'Riley taking them.

A likely transfer ban, which is coming down the line for unauthorized payments by the Abramovich regime, is going to stop anyone signing for them for a while. That's why they've been hoovering up all the young talent they can.

Apparently, despite their obvious shortcomings, the new Chelsea owners have sensibly limited weekly salaries, to new players, to around £70k. So we are now in a position to compete with them on that front.

We still need a top quality left footed CB for this season, as Igor isn't good enough. Perhaps a late move for Facundo Medina, a player we've already been linked with. http://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/threads/facundo-medina.401892/

Slowing that down, it looks like he luckily didn't connect fully with his leading leg as that might have broken Matt's ankle. The trailing leg does connect and seems to roll his ankle, not great but hopefully just a sprain.

Last season our regular central midfield looked a bit lightweight. Pascal Gross 1.81m (5'11") Facundo Buonanotte 1.74m (5'9") Adam Lallana 1.72m (5'8") Billy Gilmour 1.70m (5'7") And of that lot only Lallana had a noteable hand in previously winning any honours. This summer's recruitment has...

It's not that bad, relatively. Once you've seen this.

Didn't Thomas Frank say the same about Ivan Toney on Friday, and then left him out of the squad on Sunday?

Doh!

Apologies, it's +0.28 difference on and off, not +1.14. But still not too shabby.
