    When the owners don't spend big money they are criticised and when they do spend big money they are criticised.

    Quite the bubble this lot live in, where they never pick a bad player or make a bad decision.

    The reality is you know nothing about player recruitment. And you can't even spot a good player when they are staring you in the face. Wirtz is and will continue to be top class.

    I'll be honest, when we signed him I thought we'd have more than 1 assist and no goals from him by Christmas day.
    Not a great return for the price tag, but I still think he'll come good, Here's hoping.

    I think we all did, but I expected Isak to be at least 2nd on the scoring charts, I did expect us to be first, or at least challenging too.... not the whole team go to dark places..

    Thought we'd improve on a great season, not get worse put it that way but here we are.

    It's been a long season and we're only at Christmas 🤣

    He has created a lot of chances. They just haven't been converted. It's not his fault that chances aren't turned into assists.

    Funny how fans can churn out stats when they want.

    Trent was a big loss. I know he's struggling at Madrid but he was perfect for us. I wonder if that's part of the reason Salah has gone to shit?

    Add in injuries and nothing has really clicked. Frimpong & Bradley haven't been fit for more than 5 minutes. Gakpo poor and out injured. Robbo can't play 90 minutes any more, though thankfully Kerkez is finally looking like a player. And now Isak. That's another big blow. It's very difficult for a team to gel when we can't play a settled line up. And there's still a Jota factor.

    Top 4 this season would be fine given everything that's happened.

    Absolutely. It's been a bit of a jinxed season. With Diogo.. and then that young centre back who looked really good, doing his ACL first game! Missing out on Guehi last minute of the window, and now Isak with his broken leg, before he has even got going.
    If we can muddle through to the latter stages of the CL, then who knows, with our history and some momentum.

    Goals and assists are facts.
