Baird of the land

Team picks itself as long as there are no injury absentees Really hope we can put them to the sword. Forster KWP Bednarek Vestergaard Bertrand Diallo JWP Armstrong Minamino Tella Adams

I do wonder if it would have been better playing Bertrand at left back. Playing 3 players out of position rather than 2 didn't really work imo.

yeah if we'd played KWP and diallo from the start and they got crocked for key winnable league and cup games he would have been hounded for it. Not sure about the Stephens gamble but probably says something about Jankewitz's attitude that ralph won't put him near the team.

Thought redmond actually played better than recently but i did yell in frustration when he failed with the through ball for Tella.

Decent performance. Too many square pegs in round holes though, which cost us chance to really push for a shock result. Stephens and salisu badly shown up out of position in 2nd half. Good to see Adams looking confident in front of goal,Tella and diallo looked bright from the bench. Hopefully resting key players will pay off in big game at the weekend

Still not sure on the foden tackle to be honest whether Mccarthy makes contact with the ball. Probably one of those ones where if the ref gives it it wouldn't have been overturned but equally not enough evidence the other way round. The mixture of the rebounds falling perfectly to them/our defenders not reactting quickly enough was very frustrating after mccarthy pulled off two very good saves.

Annoying half. Some excellent stuff, then shooting ourselves in the foot after doing the hard work to get level and a injury tme goal to boot.

Bare minimum seems like a left back to me. left back, a striker & another fullback if Ryan and Danny go. additional striker, winger, right back the sort of that would be fab Wouldn't have an issue if Walcott comes in on a year's contract. He had some very effective games before he was overplayed by ralph

Yeah ideally you'd see it go like Fuchs at Leicester, where a young left back comes in and competes for that position, eventually superceding him but he's still involved. Ryan has similar to Fuchs shown ability to slot into a three man defence before too if we ever felt the need to go that route. Wonder if getting burned by the long extension has affected saints decision making on any bertrand extension.

Yeah exactly sitting back and letting them come on to us would be a disaster. We gave them a good game in the earlier narrow loss. See no reason we shouldn't aim to do the same.

My guess it is someone completely minor. Much greater story by keeping it anonymous.

I’d assume if it was Charles Harry would have said so, given his clear bad relations. Also, Find it in very bad taste to drop that bomb and only choose to clear granny and grandpa of stink of it.

Meghan trying to wrap herself in a cloak of victim hood was always what was going to be on the cards from that interview. so I take the race claims somewhat with a pinch of salt. To me she was never going to want to be a supporting cast member and Harry seems to have found the way out he’d been looking. i did wonder if Harry hates Charles beforehand, from his cheerleading the crown’s portrayal and interview seemed to add fuel to that. They’ve burned bridges completely to set themselves up as us celebrity influencers. Time will tell how it will work out.

I'd expect to see Djenepo and Redmond coming in for Armstrong and one other. Hopefully Redmond turns in a performance for his ex non secret admirer Guardiola. Interesting to see what happens with KWP. Does Ralph rotate him out, protecting him for more important matches, given he's only recently back from injury. However, given we are bereft of other options i really have no wish to see Bednarek play there ever again. Same scenario with Diallo too i suppose.

Find it slightly frustrating that he's seems happy playing for a small club, just one that's located in London. At this point though hopefully they stay up and we can recoup a tiny bit of money.

Adams will be disappointed to see them relegated. He seems to like playing them.

Good to see Tella having an impact and us getting back to winning ways with a cleansheet. Should win hopefully calm nerves. Shame Ings got injured but hopefully Adams goal will get them flowing for him Surprised Diallo played the full 90. Guess Ralph really doesn't trust Jankewitz at all after his Man Utd catastrophe

Diallo does look rusty but given he's been rushed back in from injury i can forgive him that somewhat. Hopefully Ralph gives him an hour and then replaces him with Jankewitz.

I find it really annoying how backwards we are playing at times. That last move summed it up, we had chance to release armstrong on the left, instead we played it sideways and back, culminating in gift wrapping mcgoldrick a chance he fluffed. We should be going for the throat to put this game to bed. On the positives, Tella playing very well.

Even if we did want to sell all those(some of which i'd disagree on anyway) we'll be lucky to sell 1 or 2 of them. We'll be lucky to get rid of one of the keepers, so thinking of bringing in more is fanciful.

I've appreciated what he previously offered to the team even if he could be frustrating. However right now he is offering none of that, encapsulated by last night's display. Bench him and if he makes an impact from it to earn a recall fine.

Forster Stephens bednarek vestergaard bertrand jwp jankewitz djenepo Armstrong Minamino ings obviously if kwp or diallo are back play them. If djenepo is out play tella. Just take Redmond out of firing line he offered zilch tonight.

I found it frustating against a big team like everton we didn't try anything different on at least one of the set pieces.

Armstrong the only real player who seems to want to move with the ball. Feels sorry for Ings working his socks off but getting zero service. Despite everton coasting and us busting a gut we really felt powder puff. Another injury too.

Gotta to wonder what ralph has seen in redmond to keep him on.
