Re: Weghorst
We scored goals last season without many goals coming from Ash orJay. They played a similar role to that Weghorst played at United. I would imagine we would look very similar if we played Weghorst as a direct replacement for Ash. However, I was very interested to watch an interview with Phil Foden b...

Re: It’s now up to the players
One significant difference from recent performances will be Ben Mee. If he’s really fit and has even more authority on the pitch, this could both motivate and organise the team to be more effective than they have been for some time without him. None of us really has a clue whether the players will f...

The Daily Mail called Joe Hart an "outcast" at Burnley. From his enthusiastic shouting today and his general demeanour on the bench he looks to be very much part of the squad. I'm sure he'd like to be first choice keeper, but being number 2 doesn't make him an outcast.
