He stopped a real counter-attack and didn't even get a yellow

How is he not booked for that?

Do you have to ask?

That should be a booking for Schlupp. I see this so often against us, it's rarely resulted in a booking. The other way around and it's a yellow card.

weak ref no yellow

He should stick to giving interviews. That's one thing he can actually do.

The worst thing above everything even his ego and how much weaker we are against big opponents is how joyless our football becomes with him leading the line.

We're not the perfect team without him but the fluidity is by inlarge good-great to watch and you can get some enjoyment even when we don't win. When Lukaku is the focal point Plymouth play more attractive football than us and I'm not even joking, unless we get the result there's literally no joy from watching games with him in this team.

I don't think I've ever seen Lukaku win a header

64% possession and almost no good crosses

the wind is a real wild card on this match, cant blame players for misjudging the flight of the ball

So slow and lateral

Not sure how Schlupp got away with that, it's a textbook yellow.

Two good dribbles from Pulisic in the past couple of minutes, hopefully Tuchel's magical narrative powers are finally kicking in.

Lukaku being bullied, especially in the air.

He wins them when nobody is on him. He's probably the worst striker in the air

We sell Tammy and get this useless non moving lump up front

That's not particularly surprising to be fair considering we're not playing actual full-backs or Hudson-Odoi.

Sarr is having a good game

We have to be the most boring team in the league

Jinx

It would have been hard for Lukaku to get onto that cross-shot from Sarr, but why is he always behind the defender? He's never in a position to score a poacher's goal.

When you look at our bench it is hard to see much of a game changer too. Werner could come on and miss a few I suppose.

Lukaku has apparently had two touches so far this afternoon, which is thirteen fewer than the next-lowest player.

Why are we so f**king ponderous..

Corner?

Don't know about you lot but I'm f**king bored watching this....we are totally sh*te going forward with no cohesion or direction along with a traffic cone up front.

That is a pitiful stat.
