How do you like Onana now?
I do not. But I am glad he made the save on that weak attempt.

Goal!
Better than Ramsdale on a weak shot by de Ligt on the other end.
That sequence of save by Onana and goal by deLigt may have saved EtH
Another EtH masterclass in the works. Shock the other team playing as terrible as possible. Lull them into a false sense of security and then bang.
Rashford actually did something. Good save by Ramsdale.
Like Manchester, Rashford is red
Holy ***** Rashy scores!
Maybe that will kick start Marcus
I'm sure at some point Onana will make a blunder but through these first 3 1/2 games I can only remember very solid goalkeeping and A+ distribution.
Missed the first 25 minutes but that spell in the middle, considering we're playing Southampton, was concerning. Not like Southampton created a ton but a promoted team with 70% possession over the middle 10 minutes? Yikes.

It obviously didn't matter, but I thought Onana could have done more on the third Liverpool goal. But, you know, moving on lol…
A 3 man substitution.
That's red. Man. High studs into the knee.

There was no malice in it. Actually no thought at all. Just a lazy idiot. Bye bye.
We are now playing a back 3 of deLigt, Slabhead and Methuselah. Dalot is on the right but playing more of a high wing than RB
De Ligt and Martinez both go off with knocks. FFS.
Case for De Ligt. This has to be the oldest and slowest back 3 in the PL
I have to assume that Lisandro tweaked something because if not, these defensive subs border on the complete absurd. Even still, they are questionable at best. Jonny Evans at LB for 15 minutes goes on the list of things I should have never been subjected to.

I did not pick that up in my broadcast. Fantastic news to hear. Top notch.
Darwin Jackson Zirkzee
Now Slabhead is lame. Great.
Vive Garnacho
Garnacho with the 3rd goal.
Dalot makes up for his nightmare first half with a nice run and assist.
Mazraoui was also injured. De Ligt is supposedly just cramping. But good lord. How do you build a back line if we can't keep our best players on the pitch?
lmao at the Southampton defender who was about 5 yards behind his own defensive line.
A reasonable win against a team they should beat quite handily. Some spells in the first half were eye raising and not in the good way. Second half was a walk in the park. Sit all the starters in the midweek Carabao Cup game and let's hope none of those injuries turn into any time missed. @ Palace in a week's time is likely to be a much harder game.

Then Spurs and Villa I believe before the next break. Today was absolutely must win.
With midweek cup games every week (Carabao and Europa League). ETH typically plays strong teams in early round cup games but I really hope he doesn't this time. I would think/hope that no one would hold it against him if he lost playing a bunch of 2nd teamers/youth players given the schedule and the injury issues. I could see playing players like Ugarte or, if they are ready, some of the injured players close to coming back but other than that throw out the 2nd team.
No first teamer should be in the gummy bear cup games. At least not now.
You know, Everton probably could have sold Branthwaite to us, bought Maguire and AWB, and had money left over for another player. Don't think Branthwaite has even played for them.
Just a random hypothetical… both would have been good for a defensive team like Everton.
Edit: Assuming we'd accept the medical, but we appear to accept dodgy medicals on prospects. And I still haven't changed my opinion on Branthwaite, I'm just saying, though.

Good news. I was positive at least one would be on the shelf. We were due for some good luck.
Ten Hag says De Ligt, Martinez and Mazraoui are all available for the Carabao Cup tie vs Barnsley tomorrow despite coming off against Southampton on Saturday. Shaw, Hojlund and Mount are still out.

Just because they can play doesn't mean they should play.
Yeah I don't care about this game. I'm just glad no one got put on the injury shelf.
Just run the kids out there...Ten Hag won't because he knows this or the FA Cup are our best shot at a trophy and keeping his job
I don't think he's dumb enough to think that a domestic cup will save him again this year if there isn't progress in the league. It barely saved him last year but that trick only works once. But I absolutely think he'll run a pretty strong team out there. I don't think he's really ever rotated during these cup ties.
