There are few anywhere near as good in the league. Just superb

It really was mind blowing today. Tons leaving on the 85th min at 2:2 & we were clearly on top. Crazy.

I completely agree. I think he is starting to find some form.....

Completely this. I seriously don't get the flack he gets. It must be from those who didn't live through the likes of Nicky Mohan, Brian Carey and Junior Lewis. #spoiltfans

I'd agree. But we're just not the same without Wilf. He's just so dynamic

He was excellent. The best I have seen him play. Chelsea struggled to cope with him. Most impressive.

Exactly my point. But look at the millions their wages are using up. We are not a bottomless pit!

We're knee deep in CMs, most of which we would probably like to ditch - James. Silva, King and to a lesser extent Mendy. This surely more a move I would expect to happen once these/some of these had left. There is a lot of money in wages being spent on players who have literally no future at the club.

I honestly think this is a very sensible, if a little underwhelming signing. I'd much sooner this than splashing £40m on the likes of Dunk or Tarkowski! We need cover, he will do that and without us sinking millions to do it. Whilst I am as disappointed by the lack of movement this window - look elsewhere, nobody is really doing any business. It is going to be a quiet one. Which to be fair, Jan usually is.

Still so much to play for. Like everyone else I am so gutted to lose tonight (especially against that bunch of inbred half-wits), but we have pretty favourable tie in the FA cup and sitting pretty in 3rd. A win on Saturday would go a long towards making tonight's misery fade. Let's get behind the boys (apart from Gray, obviously......)

I'm taking some solace from the fact the will get properly schooled by Man City in the final.......

Incredible to think just before Brendan got here he was all but done with us. And now he is an essential member of the squad. Total pro.

Professional job done. This is the kind of fixture we have lost regularly in the past. Bring on round 5

Totally this. He had a real chance today to impress. Completely failed to do so. Truly dreadful.

Typically the wisdom is that when a team hits poor form, work rate needs to be upped. As I said in another thread, we lack press and intensity. If we are not able to play the expansive football we want (and were playing), then we need to become hard to beat. At the moment, if things are not going our way we seem to become despondent and lacklustre. Obviously it is easier to press and work hard when you are on top and winning - but we need to get this back and then the results will start to come. We are too easy to turn over. That has to change.

He isn't playing well. Hasn't for quite some time. But he is still the player who is most likely to make something happen. Today's result is not because of Madders poor level of performance (by his standards), but instead it was to do with Wilf's continued absence. HE is the real difference. He is our beating heart. Madders without him is blunt, but this does not give him the excuse to throw himself to the ground the way he did.

So poor. Dreading Wednesday......

FFS! Total weakness from Perez giving the ball away in the build up to their goal. Totally pissed off with Madders constantly going to ground. Embarrassing.

I know right? They've hardly mentioned it.....

Sky are so poor. Blatant 'big 6' bias is so tiresome.

At the KP they were the most physical side we have faced this season. Not to mention their blatant time wasting from pretty much the first minute

Well possibly. I think he tends to do better away from home.

When he did come on, he made a big difference (even with him being completely out of form)

This is my thinking too. Very surprised about this. Thought Albrighton would get the start today - but I did call Fucgs and Mendy starts.

Burnley are an awkward proposition. I am expecting a pretty tough game. I am expecting Fuchs at LB, Mendy DM & Albrighton for Barnes. We will need patience as they will make it difficult for us.
