    Still 3 bonus points for Trippier, impressive enough!
    Just noticed next GW fixtures are Feb 3rd so wont be doing anything for a while with my team, its probably a blessing i did not do my wildcard today even if my team gets low points.

    Me neither. Will no doubt tinker with my team in the coming days, but won't pull the trigger on any transfers until closer to the next deadline.

    Haaland with another Hatrick, he must have close to 100% Captaincy.

    I can't see anything other than a Arsenal win today, simply because they are currently ahead of United in progress. United's squad still needs improving. If we can do a smash and grab I will be very happy.

    Arsenal deserved winners in the end, I was going to say if it was 2 - 2 we would have very lucky.

    With the likes of Mctominay starting for us who is only really effective in our own 6 yard box, we need reinforcements.

    I really enjoyed that game. One of the best of the season so far. Arsenal deserved winners but I am happy with United's performance. The United of last year would have conceded three goals in that last twenty minutes.

    Nice goals by rashford and saka.
    Nketiah is playing well.
    Wonder if casemiro could have made a difference.

    Hopefully we get some kane and mitrovic points tomorrow. :)>-

    Lampard sacked, surprised it took as long as it did.

    It took me the evening to calm down after that game, and what a game it was! It really shows two teams that have taken significant steps from previous seasons.

    Leandro Trossard looked lively to, which is another positive to take from this game from an Arsenal point of view.
    Lampard sacked, surprised it took as long as it did.

    Any rumours who might replace Lampard?

    Names I have heard so far are Biesla, Rooney, Dyche and of course Big Dunc oh and Sam Allardyce, so the usual suspects.

    Dyche IMO would be the smartest appointment from that group, what he did at Burnley was quite remarkable. Rooney maybe tempted as he would be back close to his family, though I have not followed his progress in the MLS.

    Out of those names, Bielsa and Dyche would be at the top of my list. It could be by choice, but I'm surprised that Dyche hasn't found himself a new club after Burnley. As you mention, what he did at Burnley was indeed remarkable.

    Looks like the owners have had enough...
    Everton put up for sale by Farhad Moshiri with asking price of over £500m

    Interesting! A difficult club to take over perhaps, but one that defintely has a lot of potential for a new owner.

    I'm too young to remember much of Brian Clough, but looking at Wikipedia right now, I was surprised he was in charge of Forest for that long, wow!

    United looking complacent being a goal up they need to be careful. Ten Hag wont be happy. Gibbs White looks a player for Forest.

    As I type 2 - 0 to United Weghorst gets his first goal. Get in.

    They were going through the motions at 1 - 0 up and being sloppy, now we have the second goal less concerned though Ten Hag wont be happy.

    You know Lindelof is having a good game when he makes a tackle in the oppositions box :)) Lindelof has played well.
