Russball get in the bin.

What position is Jack Stephens meant to be in? Looks like midfield.

Russell says this system will be frustrating at times but we'll see more of the good than the bad. So far, we've only seen the bad. We'll probably scrape a win eventually and Russell will claim he's been vindicated. The reality is, this way of playing is fundamentally flawed. It won't work at this level. He either shows some pragmatism or his days should be numbered. Can't afford a stubborn manager in a relegation fight.

Where's Archer?

I fucking hate Russball.

Armstrong too honest there.

Frankly, this is utter crap.

We're offering no attacking threat at the moment.

Aribo just passes back the way it came from. Put us under pressure a couple of times now.

We're causing our own problems here

Good save Ramsdale. What the hell were we thinking trying to play our way out of that situation?!

Oh dear. Russ won't last long if doesn't get ruthless soon.

Really? I wouldn't.

Russell specifically said Ward-Prowse wasn't a target a few days ago so it seems we never actually made an offer.

That's some decent profit.

Eric Black?

Not sure they'll do that if they want to continue allowing fans outside at half time. They can't check everyones tickets as they come back in for the second half.

Didn't stop Ross Stewart.

If this does go through, getting him registered in time for Brentford seems very unlikely now.

I'd rather that than playing the season with McCarthy as first choice and Lumley as backup. Lumley will be number 2 if this deal doesn't happen anyway.

Setford is an 18 year old with no senior appearances. They won't settle with him as no. 2. Perhaps we can offer them McCarthy.

That's why FA Cup replays gave way and they've been given comfortable League Cup ties. They'll be asking to abolish the League Cup altogether soon while simultaneously lobbying for Premier League fixtures to be played in the USA and Saudi Arabia.

Yeah, I wonder if the goalkeeper fiasco threw a spanner in the works for the Alberto deal, given they wanted an £18m obligation. Have there been any other striker links? Presumably, we'll looking for someone with that profile. I just hope we haven't left it too late.

2 weeks.
