Kane blows it for England from the spot once again

Set pieces have been appalling tonight

Quansah is not the player you want marrauding down the right

000

Let's hear about how great Cucurella was there please

000

The commentators continue to sing Cucurella's praises as he gets skinned by Saka.

000

Kane is too slow for a game of this level

I mean, everyone knew it was made up when City, a team whose supporters you never meet and struggle to sell out their stadium, started raking in more commercial revenue than Real Madrid.

120

If city were to be stripped of their titles and the second place teams given the medals (not going to happen but stay with me) Chelsea would get zero medals. Haven't finished second in any of those seasons. How the mighty have fallen. Not looking like getting back any time soon either.

100

After last night our best XI would seem to be either Palestra James Lacroix Colwill Pep Hendo Caicedo Palmer Rogers Pedro Or a back 4 version of this dropping a CB for a winger. The sooner James is in the backline the better. Henderson seems to give us that opportunity

000

The PL is a bloody hard league. Almost all teams coached really well to maximise their talents. Brentford are a huge team of muscle men who play very direct for headers, corners, throw ins. It's hard to deal with for 90 minutes. What has our squad been built for? We have a dangerous front 3

20% of pensioners have a million in assets? God bless the triple lock for those poor pensioners. Fuck sake

Billionaire Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe says he has lost confidence in UK

Why on earth do the BBC give airspace to this complete and utter wanker? Man who owns pipeline complains about North Sea oil, plus some digs at immigration and tax, from a Monaco tax exile. Does being mega rich mean we have to listen to this bullshit?

bbc.co.uk

Ineos founder Sir Jim Ratcliffe tells the BBC he thinks the country is "on the slide" and calls for more investment in the North Sea.

I actually don't think we were that bad tonight. Just got done a bigger team on a set piece then fell apart trying to create something. First half was solid, we were set up in anticipation of this threat, we just have the personel to deal with it.

Brentford are a good team at home. We tried to have more control, instead we lost any kind of attacking threat and still conceded 3. Worst defensive team in the league. Building a squad of weakling midgets who don't like defending doesn't hellp.

070

Alonso went to a back 4 to chase the game, since then we conceded two to really poor defending down the right channel.

Absolute classic of the boys against men genre here. Getting taught a lesson by a team full of big lumps. We're powder puff

050

Id take Rogers off. Getting bodied up front and not competing in the air

000

Yet to see anything positive from this McPhee bloke

Rogers gives nothing defensively

Nanny McPhee needs to pull his finger out

000

Lavia benched for Barco? Seems like the most interesting change. Hato played himself out of the team.

000

Would like to have seen Josh out there tonight

020

James not in the England squad, which suggests he's injured again

100

Having watched the highlights, Hull's first goal is one of the worst I've ever seen us concede. Pathetic. A theme runs through this side, we win nothing in the air, barely even compete in duels, and no one even tries for second balls.

130

Anyway, I look forward to the VAR team explaining why it wasn't a penalty for handball at the end there. You know, just like they explained why Gabriel didn't get a red for kicking Martinez in the head

Can we go back to 27% possession?

If we don't sort out that defence we will not get CL.

250

Rodgers assist for Palmer please to compete the set

Don't see us scoring. Our dreadful home form likely to continue this year. Conceded 3 to Brighton and Leeds

000

Can't score 3 to win every week

000

The whole team is so loose. Defence gets no help from midfield, forwards barely come back across halfway.

030

We could concede 100 goals this year

161

Straight lump down field again is it?

000

Will we see Neto off the left today? Or inverted Gusto/Neto? Or is it a back 4

100

I would be amazed if a 5% tax on hotel costs had any impact at all on hotel bookings in London, or the Lake District. In the later, the locals will be hoping it does.

MORNING PEOPLE ARE BASIC BITCHES

Stewart, who if you remember is in charge of our 'style of play', I wonder what he makes of the basketball? I mean they sacked Poch for playing entertaining football. Brought in Maresca for control ball, and said Xabi was the natural replacement. I'm not complaining, but is Xabi on borrowed time?

100

ridiculous game. the upshot is that we have 14 usable outfield players. There are plenty of goals in those players, which we couldn't always say in the last couple of years. But ma' gawd are we wide open. It's basketball again.

280

Rodgers is devestating. His combination of positional play, strength, and knack to get good fortune are unplayable

060

if he carries on like this, Rodgers may well be worth £117m
