Set my alarm for 6:00pm so I missed the first half


How’d we look?

offside call questionable on Wirtz's goal...

Victor Munoz looks like the Energizer Bunny but he needs to actually show something besides work rate.

I don’t understand what happened to Isak. He looks terrible and has far the most part the entire time he’s been here. How do you go from being one of the best strikers in the world to mediocre just like that?

I like Munoz, and Gakpo is looking more like he did 2 years ago than last year, which is a great thing.

You see all the bitching online about Wirtz but he should have a goal in each game now, and that would change everything about people’s view of him if he had those goals. I like Wirtz and think he’ll be just fine.

How you can watch this midfield get played through week in and out last season and not address it.. that boggles my mind... additionally, RB is another glaring hole..

My Isak bitching worked!


And Gakpo has been our best player

I'll give him credit... after a slow start, he has done well...

He at least seems to understand what his role is on the right..

I'll give Iraola the benefit of the doubt for now, but taking off Gakpo to play Rio in a role he looked useless in last week...

I stand by my previous comment. We look half baked.

Iraola has plenty of time to fix it but I fear we don’t have the ingredients for what he’s trying to do.

He’s proven he can adjust before. Hopefully he can again.

Our attack is fine especially adding Barcola


Spend money on midfield before the end of the window

I just wonder if there is a #9 we can bring in on loan.. that's my main worry in attack for now.. If Ekitike gets back to his best, than Isak will either perform or sit..

We give the ball away way too many times each match with errant passes and loose touches.. its infuriating..

I thought there were a lot of positives to take away from this game.

On the first goal, I was wondering where Frimpong was. Not even in the picture. Battled back to equalize. Had momentum. I thought the penalty was pretty soft and the offensive player sold it very well. And then Munoz. Wow. What a debut.

Gakpo has to stay. Rio is going to score goals.Wirtz played great. I love Trey. Jacquet looks like he will be a great defender. Glad to see Isak get a goal. Probably should have had another.

We want 3 pts every time, but this team is a work in progress. Can’t wait to add Barcola.

What is Bradley’s timetable to return? I’d prefer him at RB over Frimpong.

There were some positives but the same old glaring holes that have to be fixed...

I thought the ref was terrible and if that's a pen, it needs to be called throughout the season.. JJ definitely switched off on that though...

My understanding is Bradley's injury was pretty bad and he's still a ways off..
