Not on the Leon Cort one - we had our pants royally pulled down on that one by Stoke and Pulis. One of the worst players I have seen play for Burnley.

Obviously you never watched us in the old 3rd & 4th division then.

When he signed for Man City he was seen as the replacement for Ederson, not only to be Man City's number one for many seasons, but also replacing Pickford in goal for England. But since Man City have now signed Gianluigi Donnarumma he'll surely be the main goal keeper as he's only 26. All well and g...

By all accounts, Parker has been very pleased with Tresor's attitude and application. Given he was happy to say certain players didn't want to be here, I doubt he'd go to the trouble of publicly praising him if it wasn't true. The fact that he didn't make the bench on Saturday would suggest he isn'...

From the BBC: "Can Premier League clubs sign players outside of the transfer window?" Yes. Clubs can sign free agents - players who are not contracted to another club - at any time. However, unless there is space in a club's registered squad or the player is under the age of 21, new signings must wa...

Would this need to be done today, to be registered for the squad?

Free agents can sign anytime.

Gianluigi Donnarumma going to Man City.

Sunderland will be more than involved in the relegation battle.

Indeed. If we can beat other teams easily, as we did in the end against Sunderland, staying up will be a doddle

At least it gives us some hope that both teams looked woeful on the road against Sunderland.

Winning your home games against the bottom sides gives you a chance.

Change in set piece coach anyone? He was mocked, but so many forget what a role he would have played in our defending last season. Makes you wonder what's gone wrong this season, not least with amount of space Dan Ballard got last weekend. You can understand if a player rises in a crowded box and g...

Spijed

I'm not sure about the big club mentality.

Remember, in the cup final Crystal Palace got away with one of the most deliberate and blatant handballs you'll ever see in football.

Spijed

Didn't we leave Amad to have a shot unmarked from the edge of the area, then in the second half Fernandez had exactly the same chance when all our players were expecting a cross into the six yard box?

Spijed

Regardless of class there's no excuse for the free header that led to their first goal. That was just poor defending.

Seems we were so worried about who to mark in the six yard box we completely forgot about the area outside.

Spijed

The annoying thing about the result is you can't survive on getting points just against the teams around you. We've thrown away what could be a valuable point at the end of the season.

It’s a good result for football, because it keeps Amorim in and job and United being really ****.

And that's no help to us what so ever.

I feel cheated at old Trafford again

Never a penalty in a million years

If Anthony hadn't been a stupid idiot and tugged his shirt he would never have given the ref a decision to make.

Spijed

A reality check This is the Premier League and we are going to be backs against the wall in just about every game With not much on the bench to offer anything different You can excuse good players being far better than ours, but what you can't excuse is an unmarked header leading up to their goal. ...

Defensive set pieces so far this season are a massive concern, we look all over the place defending them.

Last season we couldn't score from one, this season we can't seem to defend them. Even the free-kick that Sunderland had should have been a goal.

We seem more open defensively than under Vinny.

Don't think he'll make much difference as it's clearly not working for the new manager at Sheff United.

If Kane gets injured there is a massive drop off in quality in the rest of the forward line.

Any idea what we had under Dyche when we finished 8th? It can't have been above 50%.

A cliché I know, but it's what you do with the ball when you have it.

With 5 at the back, we're going to be set up for the counter for most games.

We finished 7th.

This weird obsession with footballers who are already millionaires having to move to the Middle East to ‘set themselves up for life’.

I think it's fair to say that he'll never spend any money he'll earn in the Middle East, because of what he's already earnt in his career to date.

My issue is that I'm not receiving the email link, so like the Lazio game will have to pick up paper tickets from the office.

Walking down Harry Potts way before/after the game is now far better without the away coaches.

My only take away from the changes in access and seating in the CFS is that we are now able to accommodate more away fans equalling more£s. Maybe I'm missing something, but that was my overriding impression of today.

Except there were empty seats in the away end.

Spijed

Why were Sunderland not allowed to completely fill the away end?

Spijed

Regardless of whether we should/shouldn't take him back, did the club withdraw any offer made to him, or is it still on the table?

Spijed

It is crazy, but it shows just what a good squad Sean Dyche had created for us during that purple patch. The night (Stoke at home) when we temporarily went into 4th place during the 17/18 season showed how good we really were. Wonder if anyone really thought we'd end up qualifying for Europe, thoug...

Farke has a similar track record at this level to Parker - great at getting teams up, but then hasn't been good enough (to date) at keeping them up.

I have heard a bit about this, is it something along the lines of a player wants to move and the club are powerless to prevent it ?

Won't that have ramifications in any walk of life in that people could walk out on contracts whenever they feel like it, regardless of the profession?

Regardless of opposition, nobody should have been surprised at the defeat on Saturday. Even Premier League seasons that haven’t involved a relegation scrap, we usually make poor starts.

Everton are not a dire side. They're an established Premier League team. I don't even think you believe what you've written.

But they were poor tonight. And for all the players they've bought Pickford didn't have to make any hard saves.

I hope I’m wrong, and I’m sure someone will hurl insults my way for this, but I seriously worry about what will happen to us this season.
