Bogle a liability now. They will hammer that side.

Sunderland 1 up.
Is it Slot or Farke next for the axe 🪓

I would have brought Aaronson on for Tanaka instead of Gruev....assuming that Tanaka needed to come off.

Nmecha for Okafor? Interesting

Gruev did well against City in this system.

Farke made the same Okafor change on the weekend, but he's not pressing enough for me.

Not sure why tanaka is always the first to come off, looked a bit miffed so unlikely to be fitness related.

need a manager with backbone, that can install discipline...
and we need several new players.. same chaos every season
Agree, the last two games show we can stay up, but it's the manager holding us back. Still think we'd have got something from Villa and Citeh had we made a change after Forest.

I’m 50/50 regarding Bogle.
He looks out on his feet defensively but looks a threat when we have possession 🤔
