Baird of the land

Trump really starting to scrape under the bottom of the barrel now with his latest nonsense regarding his Georgia loss.

Everton losing to West Ham. At least we got a point.

swapping Rashford for Son in my FF team looking worse now.

Surprised the FA cup games haven't been postponed yet, given the covid situation. I can understand trying to keep the premier league going but mixing those bubbles with EFl and non league seems nuts. If they do go ahead i wonder will Saints put out a complete reserve side.

Probably a striker. I would love the youngsters to get a decent chance first but ralph seems to want to rely on Long who is well past his best.

The high line certainly has my nerves on edge. Curious if Soucek had scored would the goal have been diallowed because dawson(who was offside) went to head the ball but missed it.

The positive is that we took a point. Good to see Ings back, lovely movement for the disallowed goal but not sure why he played the full 90 as he didn't look 100%. We were pretty terrible going forward. I know that we like to recycle the ball back but today it just seemed excessive and slow. We are missing vestergaard's set piece danger too. Can't understand why we still persist with long rather than giving a youngster that 30 minutes to have an impact. Long's major achievement today seemed to be tackling djenepo.

Bright start but gone flat after that. If anything they looked more dangerous afterwards. Walcott the one looking like he might do something for us.

Odd to see N'lundulu drop out of squad completely.

Today's results went well with others dropping points. So we're going to muck it up and lose to West Ham for sure.

With three young attackers on the bench who’ve all shown potential, there’s zero excuse imo with persisting with long for 90 minutes.

It’s a point I guess. didn’t really get going. Ralph was very negative. Refusing to make any changes other than to waste time in added time. diallo wasn’t terrible but nor good. Definitely not threatening romeu’s Place currently. Attack looked disjointed. Depressing seeing long starting.

Thought it would be a tough game, especially with our injuries. Hopefully we’ll take off long at ht and give one of the young attackers 45 minutes.

Would have preferred to see one of youngsters starting ahead of long. Fingers crossed he looks more effective than of late. shame vest is missing. Had to be Stephens in really.

Relieved that a disastrous no deal seems to have been avoided. still think we’re a lot worse off but ship has sailed for a number of years at least.

Hope he stays at Doncaster for the rest of the season. He’s settled well there. Is a different loan really going to be that much massively more financially beneficial to necessitate a disruption.

Hopefully vest can make this one and maybe be rested for next game.

Good to see Burnley beat wolves, keeping them from gaining ground on us. The lad benson just robbed me of a ff clean sheet though by his naive foul for the penalty.

Diallo, Armstrong and Redmond for Romeu, djenepo and ings. handy that fulham’s decent centre back got sent off.

Played well, just lacked a bit of cutting edge or bounce of ball. On another day stones puts the ball into his own net rather than spooning it into a position where Adams can’t score from walcott played very well as did vestergaard. Really wanted good Redmond to turn up 8nstead we got bad Redmond just when we needed someone to turn the game our way. losing Danny for an unknown period and Romeu for a game is a worry. hopefully Diallo can hit the ground running and help us bounce back with a win.

Autocorrect error that’s fixed now. I meant full back.

Surprised that it’s djenepo not Redmond starting for Armstrong. Find it odd that we haven’t put a natural fb on the 9 man bench. obafemi really gone down the pecking order. Interesting to see what happens with him in Jan.

I’d be tempted to start Redmond.

Frustrating point but at end of season it’ll look like reasonable point. we started well but struggled to deal with Saka. ings lacking sharpness still. holding a bit lucky on the penalty chance.
