I know we had a better squad but Maresca came in after relegation and sidelined players he didn't want or had no intention to play like Thomas, Kristensen, Soumare. We're back here again after relegation but are just carrying on the same, some of these players have relegated us twice and clearly have awful weak mentality but we just carry on and even extend contracts when there's a way out. We're a lost cause.

Sell/release/loan them. Or just keep going round in circles trying things that don't and won't work, failing to stop this fall down the leagues

It really doesn't help there are no other threats in the forward areas to move opposition around or even take players away from Abdul

I’ll take anything

Are Reid and Ayew 90 minute plodders for us now no matter what

I think having two important attacking positions filled by feeble slow aging players is a big problem

Should have made the most of the chances we had, those two long range efforts from Ayew and Reid sum up why we're going nowhere whilst they play.

Playing no striker would be better than Ayew. At his best he'll score a goal every 10-15 games from open play, and a penalty here and there. A complete of everyones time Put Ramsey and Monga in the 11 instead of Ayew and Reid and there's hope. Keep wheeling the same crap out and nothing changes.

Just can't wait till he's gone, these 2 years have been torture

That’s Silko Thomas starting on Boxing Day now, along with Reid and Ayew

Doubt he’d even score in the u21s, Evans should have got the chances he has

He’ll never be sent off, injured or resemble a striker and will play regardless

1 shot none on target against Ben Hamer

We’ll never be anything until we sort the striker problem out, just stop playing Ayew

Ayew Reid and now Antonio what a bleak trio of forwards. Will show there is still no strategy and just throwing stupid money at players who are finished

Ayew needs dragging or are we just going to let him amble about for the rest of the match
