    Commentators: “Yeah, I think he’ll go three at the back, Trippier on the right, Saka on the lef… oh wait. No. He’s set up exactly how he has for the last 5 dreadful performances with Kieran “Notaleftback” Trippier at left back. FFS. What a c***.”

    (Ok, not a direct quote, but I’m paraphrasing.) 🙄

    Saka is playing a bit more withdrawn and Foden is more central but I cannot see much difference otherwise

    They've given our worst performing player a free-role it looks like.

    Wingbacks both playing on the wrong side is confusing.

    They can claim it's all new all different but it's not. 

    Nice to see Rice turned inside out and on his arse within 5 mins 🥲

    Looks more like a back four? - Walker isnt playing Centre-Back at the moment
    Looks like a 3 with the ball and a 4 without. Trippier pushing high when we have it. It’s a change but it’s more rearranging deck chairs and ignoring the hole in the side of the ship.

    Could you narrow it down a bit? 🤔

    Saka looking to be very deep out of possession just then.

    Fuck me we're dropping into a 5-5-0 without the ball and we still can't keep up with them early on

    Ffs, Saka beats his man, looks up, and Kane is 15 yards outside the box

    Mainoo really should have had a go from the edge of the area a moment ago, just looked to open up for him

    I’m sure this is Charlton. We just had a throwin no more than 4yardsfrom the opposition corner flag and we played it all the way back to Pickford!

    Shocking dive from Kane there let's be honest, something he's picked up in Germany I'm sure

    Didn't see him at Tottenham I presume. Always had it in his game.

    Mainoo with a positive forward run. Ten Hag and Southgate will soon coach that out of him.
