Who would have thought shifting to his right instead of cutting in might lead to something

Sound yeah let's align ourselves with that bastion of tolerance

Fullbacks who go/pass forwards would be nice, too (Ricardo aside)

Correct. Like it or not, Skipp and Soumare are the backup centre mids and the first XI can't play 90 minutes for 46 games.

No we won't.

At least he's blooding some of the youth at the same time...oh.

He's got 4 in 8 this season, I'd bite your hand off for a striker who gets a goal every other game.

The ref wasn't so bad that he's responsible for us dropping points by the way. Not good enough. Don't forget on any other day we go 2-0 down after Jakub spills it and we lose the game. There is improvement from where we were a few games ago in terms of patterns of play but we need more than that. Don't hate Ayew like some seem to but we at least need a striker with movement or pace on the pitch to keep the oppo defence honest and stretch play. Hate to say it but Fatawu needs to start putting in some more consistent performances too.

Agree to disagree.

He did. He got knocked on the way down, but it was a dive, come on.

Soumare and Mavididi were two of our better players today

Yeah totally agree

Least he's put a proper striker on. Baby steps.

People like shitting on scapegoats without watching the game. Same reason people blamed Vestergaard when all he was guilty of was getting done by a great flick round the corner.

Who said it's the only issue?

Just copy and paste this for every game he plays up top. Need more than that from your lone striker.

Atmosphere sounds rank

Because he's trying to create

Gonna need more than the two wingers cutting in to shoot after all this build up.

Probably both still not fully fit

Doesn't get any better on the replay does it

Didn't think they'd keep it up, was causing us big trouble tho

We need to try something other than the underlap going forward, they've been wise to it all game. Overall though, better than I was expecting without really being a threat in their box. Got better as the half went on.

He has been alright but he also doesn't help himself by misplacing 10 yard passes

Played several passes that split the lines yesterday when he came on and I never worry about him losing possession in the middle of the park when receiving in tight spaces. We don't have another player like him and he has to start, he is so much better than Skipp and Soumare it's almost laughable.
