Marc Cucurella is the perfect illustration of why we shouldn’t write off any of the new players so early.

He looked lost in his first 12 months, yet with time he transformed into one of the best LBs in the world.

Signings sometimes need time to adapt.

How would we feel about this team against Liverpool?

Good to see that Enzo Maresca will be judged over the entire season.

I am glad the club are beyond sacking coaches mid-season whenever we have the smallest hint of bad form.

Andrey Santos was really solid last night.

He looked bright in midfield, and was dominant both aerially and on the ball.

I would like to see him start alongside Moises Caicedo against Brighton.

I hope Moises Caicedo, Cole Palmer and João Pedro don’t even travel to Lincoln.

Not worth risking their long-term fitness over a Carabao Cup 3rd Round tie.

If Enzo plays, I want to see him deeper in the pivot with a full-back overlapping.

He needs touches of the ball, and the chance to show his world-class passing range from deep.

How would we feel about this lineup against United?

No shame in losing away to Bayern.

In the end, it was three individual mistakes, combined with the individual quality of Kane and Olise, that decided the game.

Our lack of experience at this level showed as well.

You really do have a lot of anger and frustration in you. I genuinely have no idea where it is coming from.

I haven’t attacked you personally once, yet you have me multiple times.

Look, I don’t know you, I wish you well and hope you can get over this resentment of the club you support.

This response has been absolutely shocking to me. There is no inconsistency at all. Just a bit weird from them.

Disagreed with them many times. Just give them fair coverage when there is clearly no conspiracy such as in this case.

I am genuinely flabbergasted at this response from yourself and others.

I think Cole Palmer will hit a new level in the Champions League.

European teams haven’t seen him before and he’ll have more freedom to work his magic in the more open games.

His best performances will be in this competition.
