Baird of the land

Don't get the Wilson fascination. He's looks a fairly limited player who is good at set pieces(something he wouldn't get to take at Saints)

Like the fact we've gone away from plain stripes to a sash for a year. Both home and away kits look nice to me. I'll probably get one.

Wonder how much it would cost to get buendia from Norwich in the summer.

Everton not even seeming to care about losing. no doubt they’ll rebound against us though.

Holgate off injured. Is that Him out I wonder.

Don't see the value in loaning him back there. Surely another promoted club would be interested in purchasing him even if Fulham aren't promoted, a bit like the Targett situation

Another class performance from Stephens. A player who looked so talented but it seemed wasn't going to channel it into consistent 90 minute displays but this season has blossomed. Immense effort by the players and great opportunism by adams. That's certainly one way to get off the mark at a new club. Slightly surprised we didn't freshen the midfield up with Djenepo at some point.

Amusing seeing spurs getting hammered

At times Adams has looked pretty terrible but then there are other moments like sunday when you think there's a player there. Obafemi, equally is still erratic. His pace is a fantastic asset and has scored a couple of goals. So the boring answer at this point would be both. Neither has done enough to be third choice automatic pick.

So forster must be going back on loan there too.

Wonder when Le Tiss is next scheduled to be on Sky. Interesting to see what he wears. Should stick a kick it out badge on instead.

I see Starmer is bright enough to criticise as nonsense extreme BLM stuff about getting rid of police.

Your assuming that saints would put him in u23’s rather than save 15k a week in wages. Past experience with other players doesn’t indicate that.

If your boss told you to take another job for half the money would you? forster most likely can just hold out till we buckle to another loan deal unless someone offers similar wages to what he is on.

Think i'd bring back Hojberg for this. This Isn't a game suited to Romeu, whereas yesterday was. Mobility over strength needed. If stephens is back him in too for Vestergaard, for same reason. Armstrong definitely in for Smallbone. Might be worth giving Gunn a game depending how he looks in training.

Personally I don't mind Bournemouth. Pragmatically I look at West Ham and Villa's spending power and would like to see them down for that reason. Given our horrendous record against West Ham i'd probably plump for them if it came down to a straight choice.

I thought he was neat and tidy. I’d call it a solid performance rather than impressive. Hopefully he’ll get more experience this season, which will hopefully give him platform to keep improving.

I was happy to see no gray or Welbeck in the starting lineup. Bednarek and Vestergaard felt well suited to dealing with Deeney. Ings again suberb again. Just hope the club don't sell him this summer because he's bound to generate interest. Real shame adams didn't get his goal. The turn though, a sign it might be worth persevering with him. Our turn to have a keeper throw in an off day. What was with foster's wall for that free kick, making it easy for Ward-prowse, coupled with miscued throw. Our jeckyll and hyde form is bizarre.

He’s only out because we played a couple of days ago.

We would have to offload two not one. we barely managed to shift one out on loan this season, so a new keeper is a massive no from me. our limited transfer budget is needed elsewhere.

There’s clearly pressure to conform in these scenarios. I doubt anyone feels a strong negative to suffer the abuse McLean gets for refusing to bow the politicized poppies event. I do this rite by this point is rapidly losing impact.

Probably for the same reason Leeds were offering 20m for adams, that it would have cost a fortune in January to get replacement and if we lost a striker to injury we'd left with no options.

The reality is that we are stuck with 2 out of 3 for the forseeable future. Forster feels the most shiftable and probably on highest wage too but we no doubt don' t want to appear publicly desperate.

Happy Villa lost. If West Ham go down too that's a bonus.

Not confident. Looks like watford rested players for this one. At least we are away. I'd be tempted to start Adams and put Ings on the bench. No point running him into the ground Freshening up the midfield after last game probably important. Romeu's physical presence might be a good idea against Doucorre. Hojberg was very poor too. If boufal's available i'd probably start him too and use Armstrong off the bench.
