Strikers man, strikers. Why can't we find a good one, Lukaku aside. Tosun, Rondon, Niasse, Maupay, Beto Sandro, Barry and Kean…we really have been spoiled 35 League goals in total for £135m Compare to Brentford - Watkins, Toney, Mbeuno, Wissa, Thiago. 238 goals and climbing. Cost £51m (Thiago £30m ...

Why are people wanting us to sign these players?

I don't, but for a loan til the end of the season would be ok if we're not buying better. The sad fact is, they're better than what we have right now in terms of scoring goals

Rumour Villa are after Tammy Abraham... he's better than Beto by a mile

I can understand penalties can be tricky, but I can't understand how a striker can miss. A defender, midfielders etc, but strikers should know how to 'strike' a ball...

It's better than going downstairs and venting at your partner or family. In here it's just words.

Everyone reacts differently.

My missus holds the pillow because she understands me

We really need to adjust our expectations for this season. Top 10 would be a good result compared to last few. Invest in summer. My only concern is, unless we pick up form, we could find ourselves near the bottom. Goal scorers are a big problem

What have we signed there?

He's still a boy mate. Imagine if 1000s booed at you when your confidence is shot and your manager doesn't rate you

Patience, patience. Wait until all is lost, circa 87 minutes

Honestly he looks shit, where's these silky runs he used to do? Is he homesick again?

Looks a complete waste of money so far

He's 19 and didn't pick the fee. He'll come good i think

Do we still think we don't need to buy a striker... a brilliant RB or LB won't put the ball in the net.

I quite like it, it's a bit like the black and pink away Sportpesa kit we had. I've no idea why we need a 4th kit though.

Moves like Zidane, especially that pivot turn and go... very relaxed on the ball too

Accepting he's got no LB bombing on, i assume to whip a cross in, for that great striker who could head a ball, other than to clear it. Why doesn't he move inside and play a through ball instead. A little one two and then actually shoot, rather than a neat pass to someone who can't react quick enoug...

Thiago had 8 games, 0 goals for Brentford last season. Bought for £30 million. He had injuries in that period, but fair to say many Brentford fans would have been saying some version of ''what a waste of money''? It took time for him to come to the league and adapt. I know people don't like to hear...

Utterly fucking useless last night, but in his defence, Moyes plays him wide right, when he doesn't have a leg on that side. How a player who ends up a professional Premier League player doesn't get pulled at some point on his journey for only having one foot... baffles me
