Fingers crossed.

Miles off of the required standard for this level. Would not look out of place in League One. Yep League One, not Ligue 1

He was fine under Poch but since Maresca has gotten hold of majority of our players they have looked like Amateurs

I see the fking twat set piece coach is still with us.

Corners have been terrible this evening haven't they ! Even by our standards LOL

He's also looked fine for France recently, used by Deschamps as a traditional overlapping full back, which, of course, is what he is !

Cucurella, Palmer, Caicedo, Enzo. Four players that really don't need this tournament.

And Reece. We need all 5 to just be resting or on Thiago Silva's recovery protocols

I'm sure I remember reading something from one of the stats guys that we are quite a lot better at defending set pieces than in previous seasons.

Unfortunately it looks like Enzo is going to take this tournament mega seriously. I suppose most teams have so far.

Can't say I blame him, the owners will be putting pressure on him given the amount of money Fifa are throwing at it, think the winner gets £30m

I honestly haven’t seen ANY impact at all from corners.

We’ve improved tremendously defending them.

Miserable bunch aren't we 😂

Delap nowhere near as good as Jackson (when he played his first games for us in the USA)

@nonotnowjim has asked me to say that no-one should try to contact him under any circumstances tomorrow morning.

He is booked in at his local tattoo parlour Inkcognito to get a "Delap ... Proper Centre-forward" tattoo between 9.30 and 11.30am

It's Maresca. He makes watching us a chore, even when we win.

Why can't Maresca adapt to the players he has? The style of football he wants them playing doesn't suit them, so why doesn't he come up with something different?

Scott I’m assuming this is rhetorical so won’t get into specifics 🤣

Delap hasn't looked like an upgrade on Jackson so far, still early days though

If Arsenal snap up the likes of Gyokeres/Osimhen we might regret it

Fixed.

“Superior player of the match”.

That’s a f**king first.

Yes

That was a cracking shot from Neto

I just think he is so weak and so limited in ability in so many areas.

*it's 30m just for winning the final. We'd be getting 100m or so in total if we won it.

We just won £1.4m tonight alone.

Mareaca doesn't need pressure from the top. He knows how valuable this is.

Did the job, hopefully next game we see some rotation with the starters.

Trying to reinvent the wheel basically

Haha I thought that’s was what he was going to say. Was going to replay - dont think he’s got enough room for all that.

So who was it?

Essugo must be great in training if he gets the nod ahead of Santos

Personally I'd like to see Acheampong get Gusto's opportunities at right back, when we're not going to play James. I see a lot more upside with Josh than Malo

Bet PSG and Bayern are sh*tting themselves
