Valery did very well there. Ings' Premier League goals of the season vid is going to ****ing impressive at this rate!

We're ****. Bang in trouble.

What the **** was that idiot doing there?

Lack of quality definitely our main issue but there's no doubt that Ralph is exacerbating that problem with odd and consistently inconsistent selections in defence, and for that he does deserve to be questioned. It also appears that there might be an ego issue with him, he took no blame for Bournemouth last week - no hint of accepting that his bizarre starting line up might have contributed to or even caused the defeat - and in his brief MOTD interview after Spurs he was critical of the players for not being able to break a 10 man team down. Well he's supposed to manage the game so they do that and let's face it there wasn't a lot of invention from him on that front.

Mildly annoyed to have lost that all things considered.

RIGHT BACK Cedric injured in warm up (ffs), why put feckin Vestergaard on as replacement when we have RIGHT BACK Valery on the bench!?

Looked like he'd just been booted in the shin. You have to worry this lad is a bit too injury prone when getting up of his seat is too much to cope with.

Nowhere near as bad as Elyounoussi.

Totally agree. He is really struggling I'm afraid.

Totally agree he hasn't looked any worse than Ings. The only problem with that is that Ings has been ****.

The last 4 words of this post sum up our problem quite nicely. Anyone who thinks we're in for a comfortable season is deluded.

I don't think he's going to make it. Several games in now, not really looking instinctive enough, not creating opportunities himself, missing the few chances that others create for him.

Well that was spectacularly 1 star in just about every conceivable aspect wasn't it? No excuse for that ludicrous defensive line up in the first half - how can you possibly justify starting with a cb at rb and an rb at lb with our only recognised lb on the bench. Ridiculous, but RH is owed massive amounts of slack from last season so let it go I suppose. As for the attack I think we have major problems. It's early days for Adams but he looks seriously OOHD. It's not early days for Ings and he looks........

Adams ain't going to make it imho. Ormerodesque in terms of effort, positional sense, and ability.

Surely put Bertrand on, no? He's our only actual left back (which is ****ing ridiculous in itself, let alone not playing him)

Well, you know, got to have a whinge and all that. Seriously if he was our best defender in that situation then we seriously do have problems.

Vest with a sh!te challenge again. He is ****ing cr@p.

**** me this is ****.

Geddin VAR.

Vestaguard looks so feckin' iffy. Would much rather have Yoshida in there.

Agree with all this (except maybe with Faz being a tool, seems alright to me). We are frighteningly under resourced in midfield, end of.

Every little helps as they say but I doubt we are getting anywhere near 50% of their wages off the bill. I'd say maybe 20% max.

Try reading post 804 (which you wrote). Anyway, I'm tired of this, I think he's the worst player to play for us since we came back up. You think Danny Fox is. End of debate.

Got to be happy with a point in the circumstances. We've picked up 4 points in 2 games without playing well which augers well for if and when we do start to perform. Still loads of issues, particularly Ings and Adams who look static and unthreatening.

I know exactly what you were responding to and you are still wrong. While we’re on points irrelevant to the debate - you know, the one about players who have played for us in the Premier League and how well they have played for us in the Premier League - how about Elyounoussi’s goals and assist stats before he joined us?
