Morata and Lukaku also look top class. I really doubt Lacazette is on their level.
Lacazette is not on their level.
Guys, are we hoping to challenge Spurs for fourth? The league feels over. The things City, Spurs and Chelsea are up to are not good. There is zero hope that all three falter. So what are we playing for? In September
Coutinho is amazing at these freekicks.
Lol, let's see Ox break into a winning side.

The league was over a long time ago.
Unless we win 5-0 tomorrow apparently.
Just seen Morata scored a hattrick. Seamless transition from Costa at Chelsea so far.
Even used his feet to score today 😉
Omg Ox 😆 Classic Ox first touch
Leicester are freaking awful. You'd expect them to put some pressure on in the last quarter of the game to get the goal, but they've just been hoofing it up.
Bloody Vardy. Any keeper who did his research could have saved it.

morata was a big miss. i wanted us to get him for years

He's a full tier below Morata and half a tier below Lukaku, but we knew that already. He can still contribute to our season. The key is to not expect him to swing games for us. He's not that kind of player.
Which has me wondering what the fuck we'll be at next year with only Ramsey (assuming no Ozil/Sanchez) able to swing games.

TBF Lukaku as good as he is doesn't swing games on his own either, he gets plenty of service though and service that suits him. We are such a mess its hard to know what Lacazettes actual level is.
Lacazette has been pretty unlucky. Could have had at least a goal every game with the exception of the Liverpool one.
And he was on the bench for an hour of that one. Really the Chelsea game is the only one where he didn't look very dangerous.

I was beginning to wonder whether I've been watching a different player. This thread has become pretty nauseating to read, the chirpy praise for opposition players has become increasingly difficult to read. Especially since we're not even talking about genuinely top players
Well it is the general premier league thread, and people are talking about effective forwards. Lukaku is doing pretty much what most of us predicted he would
it's relative too. We'd be praising rvn now, unlike when we had henry.
