"Thankfully Okoli's header goes wide" They're not even trying to hide it, are they?

How do you make that run and NOT lift your head to see the square pass?

Ayew will get another goal thus proving once and for all that he should never play for us again

Announcer's been on the ales

Nice to see the Skipp Soumaré experiment is dead and buried

BDCR PBUH

Thank god he put VK on, at least we get to enjoy some puns

On the plus side, looks like Mav has discovered his left foot is capable of a cross

Like seeing Riccy P showing up at the opposition box. Forces them to give up on doubling up Fatawu. Need to use that advantage more.

We should play with 10 men more often

Wtf is this NFL ref chat to the fans? The card is red - we know what it is by the colour (sorry, color)

A table. Two chairs. Rudkin. His Palace counterpart. Locked in a room. A revolver. Six chambers. One bullet. Khun Top and BEK's mum watch on... Jon looks down at the gun... A highlight reel of the 2015/16 season plays, just for him... He picks it up....... "Pay up or **** off"

You got me - technically he's a no 11

If BEK goes, which looks imminent, who do we play there? Alves doesn't seem to have it yet, although he might click into gear with some game time. Page looks promising but I think he's more of an 8? Monga has been put about but he has to stay on the left for me. Ayew behind Daka or pushing Winks up with Skipp behind both make me feel severely ill. Or do we just bring in some Portuguese wonder kid who will more than likely do a Buonanotte and fail to cut the mustard...?

Goodnight sweet prince

If we sell Hamza and JJ, and Ricardo is injured, who plays at right back? Woyo the disappearing man?

Watch him become the midfield destroyer he always wanted to be

Played 90 minutes on Sunday, 90 today. More than any other player in the squad, including CBs. Not my idea of lazy.

Soumaré looks like the playmaker here which should terrify you

Why did the chicken cross the road? To prove he can cross better than Luke Thomas

If he goes, we're left with Soumaré and Skipp as the double pivot. Nightmare scenario. Keep him for a year, let him help us get back to the prem, then let him go on a free.

Should be 4 or 5 by now

We seem to be putting a lot into this fullback box crashing strategy, not sure JJ and Thomas can make it work. Wingers are staying wide and coming deep, giving them options for a 1-2 pass with the advanced fullback to get past their defenders, but in reality it just gives them loads of ground to cover if they want to try a take-on. If Fatawu stays in his defender's pocket we've got no chance, need a Plan B...

With Cifuentes alternating shifting one of his full backs high and inside, I think Woyo will find a place in rotation. He has pace, he can hold up a ball and he likes to roam. That's a popular profile right now, for good reason. Keep, especially with Ricky's injuries.

Ruud out
