Ethan tells a story about talking to an unnamed chairman of a similar sized club to saints who said that we're the "yardstick" for how they want to develop themselves. My immediate thought was surely Leicester should be but their progress I guess is skewed by the premier league win.

Armstrong was a defensive midfielder in this game too, he covered the exposed right back position regularly which Diallo completely failed to do there in Fulham's last attack.

When the opponent's attackers move over the defence have to go with them. Vestergaard marked his man and he didn't score.

Diallo anonymous since coming on, forgot he was playing.

Now there's a headline written already!

FUCKING HELL REDMOND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING??????

Sell Redmond, Tella should be first choice from opening day next season.

Walcott! Lucky with the finish but we'll take it. Great assist from Tella.

Sheffield United, 6th of march. Before that Liverpool in January. Two clean sheets in the league in 2021.

Stephens was the one who didn't stay goal side when marking his man, who then went on to score. Watch it again and keep your eye on Stephens and carvalho, ignore the ball.

All subs made and Redmond is still on the fucking pitch.

Vestergaard seems fine with it, he is right footed he just rarely gets played there.

There's the one big cock up by Stephens I mentioned earlier.

Knew I shouldn't have said anything. Is that 1 shot on target 1 goal conceded by McCarthy?

Would be happy with a Vestergaard - Salisu centreback pairing as first choice next season.

Redmond driving forward there did well, but his lack of a left foot restricts his options even on the rare occasion he does that.

Stephens is a weird one, he seems to get complacent if he starts for a long time but if he's fighting to get back in the side he digs deep and puts in some really commanding performances.

Minamino looking better on the ball playing more centrally.

Djenepo has never been given the chance that Redmond has, i.e actual consistent starts regardless of form. He should have started every game till the end of the season as soon as we were confirmed safe because, as you point out, it's getting to the point where we might need to decide if it's going to work here for him.

Drop. Redmond. Play. Tella.

Tella!

Redmond forced into running at goal from a brilliant pass but it's straight at the keeper.

We've got Tella, Djenepo and Obafemi all who we could do with getting a proper look at before next season but we persist with fucking Redmond and Minamino, probably for the full 90 minutes yet again.

Redmond wastes another fucking chance. Fucking brainless.

You should sit down and write a strongly worded tweet.
