Wonder how long he'd be out of the team for if he'd been a part of that absolute joke of a goal tonight.

0.09 xg tonight. Again - it isn't he can't finish, it's that he simply won't get chances because he can't move. Ayew starts as many games as I fear he will, I think we'll do well to break 60 goals this season. Give Carranza a run.

Got to bloody beat these for god sake.

Talks a good game but have to say the red flags are becoming too much to ignore. This season ideally you want to either clear the decks and start to drastically overhaul the team, introducing numerous youth prospects we supposedly have. If you're not going to do that then absolutely get promoted (not that you can't do both). Cifuentes so far seems to have settled on going with the old guard and our team still looking not even close to convincing that we can go up. Like a completely unhappy medium. We're on 12 points but you really do wonder how based on the performances. It could very easily be half of that. Really uninspiring stuff, and it's a shame, because he says a lot of the right things. The actions matter more though and I'm really not impressed.

It's been the case ever since he's come in. He's got some uses as a player and I don't think a single manager has played to suit them. He should not be starting as a centre forward but I really think he's going to do so probably 30+ times - and that I think will be enough to stop us going up.

He's got to stop palming shots back into danger. This is becoming a repeated error of his and it's going to cost us.

Got out of jail again. Another pretty shoddy performance where we've not been properly punished for it. Really dislike these team selections. Becomes more and more apparent to me that this is less about lack of options and more about his preference. This season should either be getting promoted or clearing the decks to leave us in a stronger place going forward. I see very little evidence of either happening.

OK result. Poor performance - again.

Stolarczyk's got to stop doing that.

Zero good teams in this league. Including us.

Carbon copy of the Blues game this is.

What?

Why did James go off? We are stuck with these twats forever aren't we.

He's got to start with Carranza from Tuesday. How much more does he need to see?

Totally predictable type of game this is.

That ****ing defending. How long does Nelson get dropped for for that?

I'm absolutely gobsmacked anyone thinks this isn't the best solution. Blackburn with about a 95%+ chance of a win just stolen.

All this ever was meant to be. Total racket.

They've done similar on the continent when things like this have happened. It's a bit nonsense that you'd make them travel all that way for 10 minutes but it's less unfair than this. I can't believe they've settled on this nonsense. Blackburn winning against 10 men with 10 left - they win that an absolute minimum of 95% of the time.

You just knew they'd settle on the completely wrong outcome. Play the last 10 minutes at 11 v 10. Perfect? No. Better than everything else by an absolute mile? Obviously yes.

Absolutely utterly scandalous.

Precisely - this no longer happens. The main reason you had that abomination in May.

Ominous really how bad Betis were, extremely fortunate to draw the game though you could argue Postecoglou got it wrong as well. If that's the level of competition then crikey. The Europa League has dropped off no end as a result of the new format. Forest aren't good but I'm not sure they'll need to be.

Stolarczyk Ricardo Faes Vestergaard Thomas Winks James Fatawu Ayew Mavididi Carranza Mavididi on thin ice. Red flag if Soumare starts or if Ayew starts up front - I don't know how many more games we need to waste on it.
