must admit havertz seems to play a lot better as a striker then he does as a midfielder.
we seem to play a lot better with jorginho rice and Odegaard as our 3 main starting midfielders

in a way it still creates opportunities for saka and martinelli though if we decide to play long ball like we did this morning
He's better than any other option you have regardless of how you play. He isn't an 8 but coaches have obsessions with trying to convert forwards into offensive 8s right now and they lose confidence and regress. The exact same thing is happening with Gakpo and us, been forced to play too many minutes as an 8 and he has massively regressed.

doesnt thiago normally play the 8 role?

I mean that's probably one positive out of this mornings game that thiago was able to play 15 minutes

wouldn't surprise me if Moyes gets sacked soon, we had half our team missing today and still managed to put 6 past them
He was doing well at one point Moyes and they've got some good players there.

But been absolutely dreadful.

Potter on his way there?

ironically their last win in the premier league was against us at the emirates 6 weeks ago west ham.....

potter seems to be linked with every underperforming team atm, think palace want potter as well, guess we'll see what happens.
