Thought we did ok, but some poor perfomances in amongst the encouraging signs. Front three were completely ineffective.

Slightly frustrated we had the chance to go wide and forward to Perišić there with a minute to go but opted to pass all the way back to Vicario.

That said, it’s night and day from Conte’s reign.

The drop from Kane to Richy is a little worrying (fingers crossed that's a jinx)

That was always going to be the case. People who thought Richarlison was anywhere near the same level were deluding themselves, even more so when they keep on referring to him as Brazil's number 9, as if this makes him Ronaldo incarnate.

However, the hope is that we can he can score around 15 PL goals this season and we can spread the goals around a bit more, as well as becoming a bit tighter defensively.

I have a sad and nagging feeling that he ultimately won't be good enough to remain our 1st choice striker for where we (hopefully) want to be but we need to give him the benefit of the doubt and get back into the groove of things, get used to the style of play and being the undisputed number 1 striker again.

Richy offered nothing, Kulu not much also. We need alternative to them. On the plus, VdV looks like he’s worth the money we paid.

Draw.... that's fine with me 👍👍 ... good start. Very positive and energetic... a bit shaky at times, but I expected that.... the negativity from the last couple of seasons is gone... 👏👏 COYS

Well, a lot of promise in that. New manager, learning new system on the fly. 4 debutants. Some incredibly young players. And a very difficult place to go.
