Bissouma looking like his Brighton self. 

Im not really impressed by ManUtd, Spurs look poor but ManU haven’t done much to score. Mount is playing but he’s almost invisible, where is he playing? Certainly not very advanced as he’s never mentioned when manure are attacking.

United annoyingly look pretty good. Ten Hag got them playing well. Still can’t get over Mount playing for them. “Home” eh..

😱😱😱😱

They are so bad

Mount looks absolutely anonymous for United. He totally doesn't suit their formation.

Tbh this is Mount in a midfield three. A reason why Tuchel never bothered with him there.

What are you talking about. With Shaw keep overlapping, mount need to play like a dm. This similar role to what he play under Lamp 2nd season.

But where in the midfield three is he playing? Because he’s absent from any attacking play, as if he was the designated DM sitting at the back. If he’s not, then he’s not doing his job properly because he’s not involved in any build up. He’s basically been a passenger.

Spuds and united don't look very good at all....Mount's name was mentioned 3 times and I think the new rules are really good..  The players rolling around on the floor are ignored and they get up really quickly now and all the petulance we are used to will be over in a few more games. 🙂 

Onana will create loads of chances for this Utd team. He is another Ederson.

I think the DM and two #8s midfield is so flawed in today's game. Mount + Bruno together is just so redundant and its no surprise they are anonymous and opposition running through them with ease.

Mount is worse the deeper he has to play and I'm not convinced he has the tactical awareness to play in a midfield three for a top side. 

1-0 Spuds

He's gonna be proper dodgy though, doesn't look like a great keeper to me. Ederson isn't a great keeper either though.

how is that first one not a penalty? stepping in and taking a player down without touching the ball?

Shining example why giving Manager full say on transfers is a very, very bad idea. 

£364.4m spent and they look no better than they were under Ole.

Yeah am I going mad? The commentator acting like there wasn't enough in it, the defender missed the ball...

Utd, Spurs and Liverpool don’t look all that. We need to focus and accumulate points against teams we should be beating. Absolutely no reason we can’t be in the top four mix. Just need more goals.

That was a huge body check, unbelievable it was allowed.

 

Two great saves by the Spurs keeper!

They do. Brighton haven’t really been tested yet, but the output continues to be better than the apparent sum of their parts.  Does make me mindful in a Caicedo, but I think we’re just scared by Cucu. 

Udogie has been very good for Spurs

Udogie and Son have got in each other's way in or just outside the box three times now.

Am i right in saying that there hasn't been a 20:00 PL game on a Saturday before? 

i cant remember watching a PL game at 21:00 in the Netherlands on a Saturday
