Sadly Big Les is useless, think they were banking on him being capable in that position.

Nonsense isn’t it. The guys at the front don’t have any space to operate in as we take 5 minutes and 50 passes to get up the pitch, let the opposition organise before shutting us out. Maybe Russ needs to think about playing to our strengths rather than our weaknesses.

If you paid to put yourself through this dross every week I’m sure you’d be moaning as well

I honestly believe that with this starting XI and squad, we’d do better by punting it to the opposition, sitting in a low block and trying to play on the break. Russell’s stupid obsession with slow possession, walking into the opposition half before creating nothing and getting done on the break, is killing us.

Attacking free kick, Tall Paul and Big Les on the pitch so what do we do? Short free kick and 4 passes back to halfway. Absolute cunts

Adam Armstrong has been absolutely woeful on both wings too. Never looks to go past anyone so it just comes back to wherever it came from. More predictable shit

Clear foul on the keeper by the Wolves defender

He can moan all he wants but we’ve brought this on ourselves. Pointless football, no thought to creating anything. He’s got to go tonight, completely ineffective.

Yeah have been the whole season. Pointless football

I predict more of the same in the 2nd half, with a 2nd goal conceded on the break. Wolves are rubbish but we’re worse

Ahh the good old ‘U’ shape possession with no intent to cross or get the ball into meaningful areas

I do for their goal. Players not allowed to just clear their lines any more, leaves too much doubt in the minds of the players in those situations

Fuck me what is KWP thinking there. Exactly what we didn’t need in this game

No, I don’t understand consistently selecting one of the shittest players in the squad. I could understand against Arsenal to double up on Saka, but how he’s become a guaranteed starter now, I don’t get it. He’s shit.

Who do you need when you need to get on the front foot against a team low on confidence and desperate for a win? Ryan fucking Manning, that’s who

England aren’t exactly blessed with quality CBs these days and I think this reflects that. But as others have said, hopefully it’ll be a confidence boost for him and some good experience

Maybe the extra half a million quid can go towards paying Russ’s contact up

Yeah I think that’s steep considering it was half the price in the last round, and both sides will be making changes you’d think. If it had been Palace in this round I’m sure the prices wouldn’t have been as high. Big cash grab from the club

It’s not my own work, saw it on the group chat and it made me laugh. The home crowd were right on the backs of the players and manager at the weekend, we need to start well for more of the same. They’ve got some quality players though and I’m surprised they’re struggling as much as they are. Need a big result ahead of a tough run

We’d still be in the shit and nailed on for relegation, as we are now

I think he’s been largely poor, lots of terrible crosses, thrashed shots and offside a lot when he’s looking across the line. Well taken goal on Saturday after some good movement but I think we’re fortunate it was against a keeper with particularly short arms

Why is Ryan Manning on the pitch? Why do we always turn to go back to the CBs when there’s a break on? Martin out

10 passes between the back 4 then straight to an unmarked Everton player 😂 Fuck me Russball is dull

Fucking Armstrong with these hip height crosses absolutely nowhere near the runners, every time
