Dark clouds, sorry mate have to correct you, calling last night disgusting really flattered them, appalling I would have used, should think some of the dreamers will now wake up to reality, a couple of good spells in the Derby doesn't mean we're good enough, for Christ sake even Bournemouth had a couple of good spells against them and got murdered because Liverpool took their chances in that game.

Sorry mate, have to correct you but your talking jibberish. a seriously unlucky lose to them and 2 draws,1 of which we should of won and another to Watford who fair play to them played well and deserved the draw at least and you say "appalling". rubbish. progress is being made, take your blinkers off.

Actually embarrassing how some blues react to a couple of poor performances.
We are just 4 months into Silva's reign.
We still need a quality goalscorer and with one we MASY have got more at ManUtd, Arsenal and even Analfield. We deserved more at each of them!
There is a massive difference in the quality of the performances now to last season.
Klippety across the park has taken 3 1/ 2 years to get where they are. But we outplayed them for large parts.
Clearly we have suffered a hangover from the late derby loss and clearly the last two performances have not been great.
But with any new team we will have good spells and bad.
Even the Watford game we started well before losing our way. But they kept fighting to the end - the very end. To call it appalling is actually embarrassing yourself.

{Ed002's Note - I think Everton see him as an option to Sala but getting him in January might have to involve Lookman as part of the deal.}

Ed I don't know much about augustin just that he has scored 3 goals in 10 matches and not a regular starter the lad might be really good but think we should be looking for a striker to walk straight into are starting 11 as we clearly lack quality striker.

{Ed002's Note - It is a bit of a strange one. Jean-Kévin Augustin was well thought of at PSG but there was never going to be a route to being a first team regular. There were discussions between PSG a number of sides (including Angers, Lens, Caen and Laval) regarding a 6 or even 18 month loan in January 2017. An approach from Arsenal was rejected in the summer of 2015 and an approach from Spurs was rejected in January 2016. In January 2017 Borussia Dortmund had declared an interest in Augustin as they prepared to need to make changes to their forward line but he was not their first choice and Alexander Isak arrived. By that summer he was going to leave for good with interest from RBL, Lille and Rennes. Right now he is vying for a start with Yussuf Poulsen and doing OK but not great. Everton have to do a sales job to persuade players from more successful sides in good leagues to make a move and RBL would likely want a high fee and the player would maybe not be interested. From my perspective Sala is a better option. But they will keep looking.}
