Saint Matty 76

Get Fraser off the pitch for fuck sake, how is this better than Taylor or Manning?

It worked so well when we subbed him on at wing-back against Leicester that we had to give it another go.

4-3-3 with Fraser at full-back? Having McCarthy, Stephens and Fraser as part of your defence in the Premier League is truly incredible. Nice to see Onuachu get a start, but I'd have sooner seen that against Wolves where we had a semblance of a chance.

Got a Northam spare for this one if everybody is interested/mad!

Obviously not in an ideal world. Just being realistic about the possibility of the financials causing a big problem here.

Are we really in a position where we can pay-off a newly re-signed manager and throw a huge bag at a manager who would still only have a subpar chance of keeping us up?

Pretty much the perfect scenario. However I'm sure Moyes and Potter would have a lot to say about it. Sad reality at this point is anybody would be insane to join us with the run we have coming up and current standing.

Whilst it was a disgraceful decision - sadly all the talk will now be at the disallowed goal and not another toothless performance against more shite opposition

Still no Onuachu, despite the fact this clearly isn't working Fed up of this bloke now, appreciate what he did last year but get him gone in the break and give us something of a chance He will not keep us up

Can't find myself too annoyed about that half outside of the early conceded goal, played well and scored a perfectly fine goal only for VAR nonsense to take place Sadly can't see us creating enough to win the game though. Hope he makes the Onuachu move early because Archer is doing nothing

Gonna be the 4th/5th absolutely woeful team we play this season who will all leave the ground thinking "how the fuck did we win that?"

Brilliant finish!

Ugochukwu was an insane signing if he can't be expected to fill in with Downes is out

That's that Can't see us breaking down a team happy to sit back, probably get hit on counter for a 2-0 loss

Aribo and Lallana as your defensively minded midfielders is certainly something Any hope on this one just went for me, and that's even with Downes being pretty shit so far this year

Good for him. Echo the thoughts that he’s had a really poor start to the year but recent weeks been one of our best players. Definitely a favour to his U21 captain but can only be good news for us you’d hope.

1-1 and 78%-22%

I’d imagine he gets the next two no matter what at this point, with any potential changes being lined up for the subsequent international break.

Bailed out by Bree again

It's actually incredible how we've put one good cross onto Onuachu's head since he signed for us

This cocommentator is hilarious Just making up scenarios and getting annoyed at them

I respect your positivity but how have we completely outplayed them? We've had one chance outside of a penalty and a set piece, so you could make the same argument for our goals as well Absolutely nothing from open play today. "Completely outplaying" a team is not just passing it about 30 yards from goal

Insane that he's not getting at least 30 minutes today after actually looking alright off the bench in the league Just absolute stupidity

This Ugochukwu is dead average and the fee Chelsea paid would be our record signing

Fernandes is probably our only good player
