Can you imagine Okoli and Amartey as your centre back partnership.

He might have a 50p head and he needs to improve that, however no centre back at the club is going to find it easy, playing with Okoli. You’d be playing on edge constantly. He needs a proper experienced defender next to him. I like Vestergaard in relatively comparison to most of this forum, albeit he has serious limitations. I think Nelson is a similar sort of player and won’t ever really be anything more than that. That still most likely makes him out first choice centre back. He needs a Johnny Evans type next to him, to get the best out of him, as Soyuncu did previously.

I fully agree with all of this. It also annoys me that the EPL and EFL seem to be making this up as they go along. It is just a joke really and I sort of go from thinking our board is a bunch of fools to even challenge it, to let’s just kick back at the incompetence of the football authorises, who are just as useless as the people running us.

I’ll add Daka ran his socks off as well.

I don’t know what Ayew does in training to justify being anywhere near that team. I rather play Monga, Page, or Choudhury up top on his own and just let them press.

Skipp and Winks have been immense tonight.

Ayew has done nothing to justify not getting a 1 rating. Sky Sports discussing Page having no sponsor.

Winks is angry with Ayew!!!

What is Ayew doing?!?

Please can that plane say “Never play Jordan Ayew again”?

We’ve not. Full backs tuck in and compact the box.

Either him or James.

Aribo that’s dog muck

We all knew it would!

Mavididi has covered a list of ground tonight, pressed in patterns with Daka and it’s worked well. As talented as Monga is, he’s not ready.

I feel like Aribo should just be called the Fridge, as he’s an absolute unit.

Mavididi doesn’t help Luke Thomas at all.

I’m still convinced he told Cooper, Van Nistelrooy and Cifuentes that they had crap tactics and why are you playing me next to Soumare; who is utter dog muck.

Ayew needs to get across that front post!

FFS ….. Ayew coming on.

I’ve said it before, he gets lumped into the same bucket as Ayew but he offers so much more. He’s a steady player that will go missing in the odd game.

*Elliott and Taggart have entered the chat.

I thought exactly the same. The second we bring him on, we may as well just defend.

I’d like him to “develop” at another football club

Massive miss from Dak but he makes that himself. Ayew is still wondering where the ball is.
