Saint Matty 76

I think people will use the "don't change a winning side" stick here, and whilst I completely understand the idea, you should still fine-tune little things where possible and necessary. Elyounoussi, Bednarek and AMN are the three players whose spot is debatable. Elyounoussi was terrible yet again in possession, and this is not a game where his defensive work rate should be needed. It's beyond laughable how bad he is offensively, every single week. I'd hope for either Edozie or Alcaraz to start here, or even both if Stu isn't capable of two games in a row at the moment. Bednarek had a good game, but he is quite literally a ticking time bomb. DCC doesn't seem any closer to being in favour so I'd bring Sali back in to have two very mobile CBs. I wouldn't be devastated with Bednarek starting, but I don't think I'll ever trust him. AMN had a really weird game, solid on the whole but 3/4 moments where his lack of urgency put him in a spot of bother and he was lucky to get away with them. Two solid games on the bounce though and with KWP not getting any minutes from the bench, I could definitely see him being eased back in against Grimsby instead. Bauznu KWP - ABK - Salisu - Perraud Lavia - JWP Armstrong - Alcaraz Sulemana - Onuachu This would be my preferred lineup for this one, although I'd be more than happy to see Edozie start for a bit more added pace and directness. It's an absolute must win, or must not lose? I think probably a must win.

If we win two in a row there is absolutely zero doubt he should get it. I agree in holding off until after the Leeds game but wouldn't be opposed to him getting it now whilst there's some feel good factor within the club off the back of today.

Good man. What a difference.

Just a brilliant footballer. It’s a real shame that even if we stay up, we probably only have a few months of him left. Be very surprised if he doesn’t end up at Chelsea.

*any other player on the planet* in for Elyounoussi vs Leeds and let's get at it I'd want Bednarek out for Salisu too because even he didn't today, he will always end up ruining our lives

A win vs Leeds next week and people can stop with the "we're already down give up" absolute bollocks

Perraud, Lavia, JWP and Onuachu probably the best of the bunch for me. JWP due to doing it for all 90 and the winner. Absolute legend of the club if we stay up this season.

I think Selles will get it on the back of that, whether it's a bit reactionary or not, go for it. Hard to stress the importance of a new manager getting an immediate result and the players buying in to what he's doing. Taking that into Leeds and Leicester is absolutely massive, rather than having some other shit manager (because let's face it, that's all there is available) have to prove themselves and get the fans onside etc. It's his until the end of the season after that, I'd be pretty sure.

Shame about the other results but fucking unreal win, build on it

For Chelsea, we get a sub if they get one for it

Will we ever just put a game away like fucking come on

Somehow got away with 12 I think

Armstrong that is fucking braindead ffs

There's about the 4th lazy AMN mistake very lucky not to get punished, don't try and act clever

Horrible that

Lovely play down the right, feel like Armstrong just has to score those and never will

With that Lavia sub we now have officially taken off our 4 of our best 5 players

Absolutely fucking brilliant from AMN I cannot believe Elyounoussi is still on this pitch

Pretty funny that Chelsea bring on Fofana (£80m), Sterling (£45m), Mudryk (£90m) and Havertz (£75m) and we bring on Theo Walcott

HE IS FUCKING TERRIBLE

Yet fucking Elyounoussi stays on the pitch what is the point

I can't believe that hahahahah all three of our threatening players off for three useless attackers fuck me

Nah sorry but that is an outrageous set of substitutions looool

Triple sub...

Maitland-Niles is an absolute joke If KWP is on the bench surely he could do 30 minutes or so
