It's amazing what we see differently. He dropped deep several times and linked midfield to attack, did well for the vest effort. He did far more than Ings, and other than the goal, more than Minamino. Romeu had a poor game. When others had a worse game, it surprises me that he gets singled out.

Genuine question - did you watch the game? If you did, you would have seen that Redmond was our best attacking player by a mile. Knock him if he's shit, but give credit where its due.

Agreeed. Who does he drop though once KWP is back and assuming we go back to 4222? For me Bednarek, which is harsh on him.

Yep. That will do wonders for confidence. Salisu was worth the wait and I didn't think Djenepo had that performance in him, but the lad did very well.

Yep!! 2 mins instructions for 30 secs playing time.

Yep, he's looks good. Dropped a bit deep once or twice but otherwise good positioning. Stays on his feet. Looks strong.

I bet you think that aliens built the pyramids too.

No idea, but we haven't had one rejected in this game and haven't conceded one that shouldn't have been given.

You OK hun? xx

Behave. He gave it quickly as it was blatant. Even we would have been given that.

He didn't. Not even close.

Bit of both I think. They've breached our right side loads but the path to the middle has been blocked by a load of players. Salisu had one moment when he was a statue, but been very solid and calm otherwise.

After moaning about Dean, we have no chance of getting the rub of the green.

That was a card all day long.

In all seriousness, it's hard to see why you would've singled him out. Minamino was the one having a shocker. Redmond did what he's been doing but his critics hadn't seen, ie dropping off and linking play. This time someone actually made a run and he picked it out with a cracking ball.

Wow!! Redmond did brilliantly there. Dropped deep and made that happen.

Yep, my thoughts. Just seems kind of zonal over there with Bednarek or Djenepo filling space. Really odd.

Looks 433 at times though. Djenepo deeper than Minamino. Odd.

Salisu static there. Thought he was meant to be the mobile CB.

Ha!! Not surprising. Make him a cuppa.

Where is Djenepo playing? He's all over the place.

Yep, ditto Stephens tbh. "No players". Ouch.

On reflection I think it will be a 3 at the back. Ralph hinted at a change of shape in the embargoed section of his pre-match press conference on Thursday. "If you have no players in one position, then it is always an option to think about a change of shape. This is not something that is too difficult to change quickly, especially when you have had a week to prepare.” – Ralph Hasenhuttl
