If we keep creating the chances we are creating then at some point they will all go in and we are going to hammer some poor unsuspecting side.

Potter must have made a fortune by being rubbish at his job since he left Brighton. Who'd take him on now?

Yes, there was one moment where City broke away and Eze saw the danger and ran back half the length of the pitch to challenge the City player. Didn't win the ball as the City player was in the box by then and fluffed the chance, but nevertheless, I was amazed to see Eze even consider tracking...

Great result and the table says we are 4th!

Here you hit the nail on the head: rather too much of OG's gameplan is reliant on Mateta doing his thing, and so when he suffers from burnout because he is never rested Glasner will be forced to come up with a viable plan B.

Just as well Eze didn't take a penalty. I thought all our penalties were taken with aplomb.

Esse is just another of those kids who look great on the school playground dribbling past 4 and slotting home... Academies are full of precocious young talent, but most of them can't make the step up.

Their keeper had one of those days where he stopped everything, another day it could have been 3, frustrating, as they offered very little. Nevertheless the new recruits look very decent and I expect us to kick on.

At the business end, players who were integral and practiced in OG's tactical approach were out, Eze gone, and Sarr injured. Add Wharton into the mix and the newcomers will clearly take a few games to get fully up to speed, but from what we've seen things will be just fine.

Ollie found a copy of Roy's booklet "0-0 - The Sure Fire Way To Success" hidden away at the back of his desk and has been studying it with interest.

It harkens back to the days of Roy

The way it is set up is you are supposed to lay it on a plate for Kane, that's what he is there for, it's been his role throughout his career - a goal hanger who sticks it in the net, which his scoring record attests.

He's not international material. Ok at a club sympathetic enough to excuse all the foibles, less so at international level where consistency is key and the manager has a number of players on call.

You just know it's going to be Southgate...

Perhaps Parish thinks that Riad will get fit sooner rather than later, as he must have thought about the other sick notes that the club has a habit of investing in.

This is what I've been saying all along. If one expects great moments from him they will come every so often, but don't expect it all the time. Glasner found a role for him to play in a team related effort, and his contribution relied greatly on the effort of others, particularly JPM and IS, who...

The chickens certainly came home to roost!

It's all cobblers - ask yourself who would benefit from ensuring the media run such a story? Parish? Glasner? Or the shitstirring parasitical media whores printing anything to get a click?

It was Parish who set the ball rolling for stating that MG needed to be sold. Uncalled for really, unless a sly smoke and mirrors trick to lure LiVARpool in, as in "come and get him, he's up for grabs". He sounded desperate.

Yes, excuse me, I got mixed up! I wonder if we could get into the Europa League spot would OG stay for the challenge?
