Someone who could go into the dressing room and get instant respect not kowtow to it.

Could be Allegri? Dunno.

So Xhaka loses his man for the goal. And then has to defend the club against accusation of being scared babies, something he called his own teammates in public.

Xhaka didn't lose his man for the goal, he was front post. It was Kola who went AWOL.

It doesnt really matter who made a mistake.

We let them have too many set pieces in the first half.

It was only a matter of time when we concede from one of them. Why we played from the backfoot from the first minute and invited them is a mystery to me.

OK I accept that could have been the plan if they were in a zonal system. However it doesn't explain why he didn't then run out with the rest instead of playing Moussa onside if he wasn't marking him.

Mousset was at worst level with the Sheff United player who played the header and behind Luiz and Guendouzi, he couldn't have been offside.

Not from the angles shown. He was ahead of them almost on the goalkeeper. Evra did an analysis at half time where he showed Moussa standing on top Leno and blocking him. Think he said fergie would have never allowed that blocking of the keeper. He was definitely ahead of them and didn't take a step back at the point of the header. With VAR these days you don't clear daylight and Xhaka was in no mans land. He should have stepped out if he wasn't told to pick up the man.

That was when the corner was taken. I am talking about when the header is won. Leno is back on his line, after shoving Mousset back, Mousset is 4 yards out and level/behind the header

Ok i will need to see it again. Because from recollection it looked as if he was played onside by xhaka.

Trying to play offside from a corner when the delivery is into the six yard box would be a worse crime.

No Moussa still looks ahead of the ball but behind Xhaka.

Just noticed we play palace next

Zaha 0 goals so far. How many will he score on Sunday?

Castor is going to be disgusting.

Tierney and Bells will stop him. Oh... Kola and CC 🤪

Watch him play KT, watch zaha roast him, and watch how fans turn on him. It's all so predictable now.
