100%, was just thinking we're lacking a playmaker further up the pitch. The front 4 get the ball and just seem to panic.

On the same day China banned bitcoin for being too dodgy no less.

With Stephens injured, Simeu not yet up to speed and Lyanco being compared to Ali Dia, is Lancashire currently our third choice CB?

Hopefully we get a reasonable draw in the next round and he can have another low risk run out, see if he improves.

I didn't see the game, but those who did, were there any positives? I think it's perfectly understandable for a debutant (new country etc.) to make some mistakes, but did he do anything good?

Agreed. It's also a key position in Ralph-ball, really surprised we didn't prioritise cover.

Stephens out until the new year so we may see more of him.

3-4-3?

But not obvious enough that you can write it out?

What's my narrative?

Who's on the list "against taking the knee" now? Katie Hopkins, Lawrence Fox, Marcus Alonso, Jayda Fransen, Tommy Robinson...anyone else?

Nice pun. Not sure what he's hoping to achieve, unless he just can't be bothered to keep the anti-racism message going.

Getting nutrition, especially protein, from a plant based diet is more difficult and if someone is either not confident or uneducated when it comes to food/cooking then I can imagine they'd struggle to get what they need. It is perfectly possible to have healthy, high protein diet from plant based foods if you know how.

Anyone watched him for the B team and have a view on him? Obviously the teams been struggling.

The fact Djenepo started the first 4 suggests Ralph and co rate him highly. He certainly has something about him, if he could develop a consistent end product he'd be excellent.

Obviously an absurd suggestion but is there a chance Ralph rested Salisu today because 1. He thought we'd lose anyway and 2. In order to play him and Lyanco in this one?

If it is a "keeping the squad happy" thing, cant imagine Bednarek being thrilled that his chance is being dropped in at the deep end against City.

Honestly think 50-1 would be about right. COYS!

The reshuffle certainly does re-enforce that loyalty to Johnson and Symonds is more important than anything else (competence).

Yeah and I'd expect a fair bit of infighting as they work out what they actually want. Wouldn't be surprised if some of the Talibanisters turned up in Kabul and thought "bloody hell this modern stuff is cool", whereas some will want it all raised to the ground.

Surely the understand that things change in life? Especially during the first pandemic in anyone's lifetime.

Right, well as explained I didn't mean that we should, I was saying what I think's required to get him playing well. Not sure what your problem is.

I didn't say we should build a team around him, I was saying that in order to get the most out of him then I think it needs to be based around his strengths. Christ.
