Very impressive showing from Gomes here with two goals, one assist and another nice pass (number 21). Looks like another Neto!

Similiar to last year on paper but most of the names we thought (or hoped) would deliver such as Jiminez, Guedes, Traore, Collins, Hwang, Nunes didn't or at least not to the level we had hoped for. I feel more confident about the squad this year, especially as we've had half a season from most...

I don't get where Reed would fit in with Lemina, Gomes, B. Traore, Doyle and Hodge. Such a strange rumour surely it's crap unless we're selling one.

If you all recall B. Troare had stats like that and he's not good enough yet to start in the PL. He might get there, but we really need someone at the level now in my opinion.

Looking into the Santiago Bueno signing it seems that Girona are owned by City and it seems like we've got a really good deal for the player. Strongly suggests to me this is happening..

People are mad if they think we're going to reinvest this incredibly low amout of money in todays value in new players. We couldn't sign a player on free transfer before this... this won't change much in the current market when Scott a championship player goes for more than half of the cost of...

I know it's only July but with all of the players who have left and others rumoured to be leaving we're going to go back to the position where we don't have any options on the bench. It was so crucial last year to have options with 5 subs and I'm sure we got most of our points from subs on the...

We look like the side that's 6th. Fantastic first half. Hopefully it continues.

My predictions for the next 6. Palace - Brighton, Brentford, Liverpool, Villa, City, Arsenal - 3 points Forest - Fulham, City, West Ham, Everton, Tottenham, Newcastle - 4 points Leicester - Tottenham, Utd, Arsenal, Southampton, Chelsea, Brentford - 4 points Us - Southampton, Bournemouth...

Brilliant result. I just hope the injuries to Lemina and Hwang aren't too severe. Hopefully Lemina in particular is ok as I thought I saw him walking around at the end and he was outstanding.

It's hard as a pessimist to be positive about our chances. I was always worried about relegation under Nuno's tenure even when we were competing for European spots. All the signs are looking positive so I'm hopeful, but it only takes a couple of severe injuries and unlucky results to relgate us...

This is the most squad depth I think we've had since coming up. Arguably a better squad than Nuno's, almost certainly better when you compare the individual players. If we can't stay up with this squad I'll be devastated.

To be honest I don't like being a downer but that first half felt very much like other first halfs against United that we end up losing. Some reasonably nice play in midfield, toothless in attack and some dreadful mistakes at the back. We're still in it though and I trust Lopetegui to recognise...

This is such an odd situation but I do wonder if he'll make this mysterious injury worse by insisting on playing in the world cup for his love of Mexico and it'll rule him out for the whole season.

Leeds team worse than ours on paper. They've made 9 changes I think from the weekend!
