Was a beautiful Lamela freekick. Son with the clinical finish. Dele looking like his old self. What's not to like?

Impressed with our summer signings. Hojberg, Doherty, and Hart all at a good price point.

I love getting the deal done for Doherty early. From what I can tell he adds a bit of creativity in the final third that we have been seriously missing. Can’t argue with Aurier’s effort each game, but the same overlapping run and same type of cross all game long just wasn’t working.

We need to turn our attention to making a decision on Ndombele. There is no doubt he has talent, but we can’t afford to have a $50-$70 million player sitting on the bench at 200k a week. If we’re going to challenge for top 4 either Ndombele has to start or we need to sell and bring someone in that can contribute immediately.

Grealish, Sabitzer, or Van De Beek would be solid options if we decide to move on.

I’m really cold on Grealish. I just don’t see him being that good of a player.

I still think we need a backup striker desperately.

Was actually a really clever way to deal with those tweets. So so good.

ETA: it does sort of seem to be a bizarrely English trolling method though, and I just don’t get it. You see it a lot from English twitter where one fan base tries to troll the other with a player’s texts favoring a boyhood favorite club, or pics of them wearing the other teams jerseys. There’s that one photo of pulisic as a little kid wearing a united jersey outside of old trafford that Manchester fans constantly post trying to troll Chelsea fans, and I just don’t get it. I can’t recall ever really coming across that sort of tactic in American online sports fandom. I just can’t imagine getting mad about something like that

So Is Doherty going to replace Aurier as the starter? I'm trying to figure out where he fits in with Jose's system and wasn't sure if that was the plan.

Yep. Pretty much like for like.
Doherty better in the final 3rd.

Aurier is probably a better flat out defender, athletic-wise. However, Doherty should be much more consistent and not have the rash challenges/decisions that plague Aurier.

Also three episodes into All Or Nothing, I nominate the season thread to include "Be a Bastard" at some point.

It was weird hearing him curse the first time.

Also, super disappointed that Amazon decided to censor the word "cünt".

Ive enjoyed watching it so far. Dele seems like a very laid back kinda guy.

Decided to watch....it made me kind of like Jose though!

I am glad to see that Serge scares Jose as much as he scares us with shitty fouls in the box.

Looks like Inter letting Christian Eriksen go. Really a strange what has happened to him.

Such a shame. He’s one of my favorite players ever. I really want to see him succeed somewhere else.
