Lee On Solent Saint

These players may never make another semi final again in their careers. The lack of desire, commitment and fight was appalling.

Can't even get motivated to get angry. Just another meh performance from a meh team

If you are going to lose fine, but at least lose with a bit of fight, aggression and commitment. We have displayed nothing, nothing at all.

Six shots, none on target

The only thing you ask for is that you give everything out there on the pitch, don't leave anything out there. Unfortunately, don't think we can say that so far

Need to get in at half time all square

No reason for Ings to go down there unless he is clipped

Agreed. Not only is Diallo under pressure now, so is the ref

Hasn't really got a whole lot of other options

Just seen Andrew Surman is turning out for MK Dons against the blue few today.

So we had the perceived reason for the appalling performance on Monday due to players having one eye on the semi final. What happens if we, by some miracle win on Sunday? Will that same excuse be dragged out for the rest of the season after more abject losses, that the players will all have one eye on the final? Or will it work the other way, motivated players playing for a cup final place?

I agree it's always been this way. For me it's the manner of the defeats that aren't acceptable. Each defeat seems to throw up any even worse performance

That's a pretty damning stat

What other options do we have though? They have to start. I agree though, I think apart from Ings, JWP and maybe KWP, none of that line up that played this evening should be nowhere the 11.

Maybe Ralph needs a different view or perspective. Maybe try watching a half in the stands, might give him a better view of how to change things.

That's all very well, but just how many bad performances have we had since January?

Pretty sure Howe wouldn't want to damage his reputation any further by working with this amateur board. Having said that, maybe he's holding out for something, as he seems to have distanced himself from Celtc

Ralph, We were gone by the forty minute mark

If we are as skint as suggested, then we have no hope that the board will sack him

Feels like the Chelsea semi final all over again

The most worrying thing is that this is our best starting eleven bar Romeou. Truly awful

He's not going to have much credit left after another woeful performance such as this

So is the team

Hot and cold? We have been practically dead for the past four months.

West Brom, absolutely no stars or big name players, but what they are is very well organised and each player knows what there job is. Contrast that with us. No heart, fight or aggression.
