Been linked with Danjuma recently too. Wonder if there is a deal to be done there. Think Brooks will be out of our price range

This. Rubbish keeper.

Would have thought, given the first game the fans were back, and the more likely of the 2 remaining games we'd win, he should have started Ings/Adams. Why not just bring Ings off for Tella / Walcott at HT if he can only play 45 mins? Just an odd time to experiment IMO. Can experiment on Sunday if he wants. Sounds like he was then forced to change Adams as he got injured.

One more year for Noble.

Last time I went to Burnley away , I walked into a pub, and the first bloke I saw, had a swastika symbol tattooed on his neck. Not sure that’s a great base tbh.

Heard we’re paying him what we’ve paid him all season, £45k / week, not a small amount of money, but also not “expensive” for a player that comes with no transfer fee. Clearly a good person to have around the place, but if he’s starting most weeks, then that’s a concern, feels like we need someone new on the left, with Armstrong on the right.

Just me, or is Phillips nowhere near as good as some people make him out to be? Was run ragged by JWP and Armstrong in that first half, and got hauled off after getting booked. Is he any better than just an average premier league midfielder, or should he be starting for England? I can’t see it…

Neither can Ings without Adams. We were worse with Ings than Adams.

Yeah, absolutely, even if he could only play half the game, should have played the best side, and changed it at HT or after 60 mins if he was done. Very frustrating

Seemed to come from Northam End, what absolute “lads”

Horrible place for us, and expect it to be even harder this year. Antonio will turn into Ronaldo for the day, and bully our defence as per normal. I’d probably stick Forster back in and maybe swap Bednarek in for Stephens. Get Romeu in if fit. Hopefully we can get the front two on the pitch together for most of the game. Both much better when they both play. Forster; KWP Bednarek Vestergaard Salisu; Romeu JWP; Armstrong Adams Ings Tella

Would be a blow if he got injured, didn’t notice that.

Adams going off seemed the be the turning point unfortunately. We always fall to bits when he isn’t on the pitch as the ball keeps coming back and we never progress up the pitch. Need so much more from all of those contending to play in the “10” positions. None of them are playing well enough to play every week atm. Tella just seemed to want to run into their players in the second half. Really frustrating result, after a very promising first half. Thought it was odd not to start Adams and Ings together up front and then look to take them off if they’re not capable of 90 mins.

Says on the ticket, face masks will be mandatory at all times inside the stadium

What a shame, the return of the fans to the ground, is being overshadowed by "fans" wanting to boo players who want racial equality. Anyway, would like to see Romeu on the bench, and Armstrong and JWP to continue. Bednarek on the bench too, the other 3 deserve to start again IMO.

Would certainly explain SKD's views on Adams, Theo, Walcott, Bertrand....etc.

Don't think they'll be checking ID tbf. too much faffing.

He also suffered a bad injury a few years ago, which scuppered his development somewhat. N'Lundulu is also 22, Obafemi is still only 20. Personally think he's one worth persevering with for a few years yet if he can get his application right.

Very tough game, they’ve been very impressive this season, and Bielsa is a world class manager. For me: Mccarthy; Stephens Vestergaard Salisu; KWP Armstrong JWP Redmond; Walcott Ings Adams

I think it's unlikely, especially if we're spanning different contracts (UA / Hummel)

Think he looks absolutely quality bearing in mind his experience and age. Really excited about his future, would half expect him to be first choice next season, but will be difficult getting in the team ahead of Vestergaard assuming he's still here next season. And Ralph doesn't seem to like dropping Bednarek.

But according to people on here, Ralph is tactically inept?

Not sure it’s case of him not rating him, but clearly something isn’t right behind the scenes, especially given he wants out. Maybe the club aren’t willing to give him pitch time if he’s going in the summer anyway?

Surely it’s a combination of Smallbone / Armstrong. Diallo will have a seasons experience too, and Romeu back fit. Cant see us spending money when we don’t need to, when we have more pressing issues

Poor player. No future here IMO
