Could argue it both ways. Pellegrino is definitely not telling them to spend the majority of the game passing it backwards or sideways (actually heard him screaming "forward" at Davis yesterday followed by "aaarrgghhh" after yet another pass back to VVD. But then you can argue why isn't he and the coaches snapping them out of it.

We definitely aren't very good anymore.

It's mental to think, with how terrible we have actually been, that it's entirely possible to be sat in 5th if we were to win this match.

Why do Tadic, Bertrand and Cedric have to beat the full back 4 times before crossing the ball. Is it a superstitious thing?

Forster has to be dropped now surely

I do feel sorry for Lemina

Schteve De Ridder

"Former Liverpool striker"

An acceptable loss. With encouraging signs seconds half. Need to learn how to score.

Play well

Romeu and Lemina

Lemina and Hoot have been fantastic.

Can't blame him. Needs to be starting games.

He's had the look of "you lot are ****" on his face since after the the cup final. And who can blame him? We need some confidence and it will only come from a winning streak which I'm sure will happen but if it could hurry up that would be lovely. Normally takes a result against one of the top teams to do that so once we beat utd everything will be good again.

Boufal for Davis at half time. At least he can dive and get us a few free kicks.

Bertrand is going to walk off the pitch

Do these people read what they write?

Looked a bit rusty, there were two passes that went wrong early on and got some big groans. Got stuck in however, looked confident and freed up Romeu. I like the him. JWPs delivery though. Competition is good.

We scored, finally. And I was entertained. Hoorah.

So so obvious lol

Can we have him back show Cedric and Davis how to shoot?

Baby steps

Money money money

I'd have him but he's not going to half his wages to come here and rightly so.
