A loan with a view to buying him when KWP leaves next summer...

Bazunu; AMN, DCC, Salisu, Perraud; Diallo, JWP, Elyounoussi; Aribo, S.Armstrong, Adams. Subs: McCarthy, Lyanco, Payne, Larios, Lavia, Djenepo, Edozie, A.Amstrong, Mara. I'd go for AMN at right back over Lyanco. Although he may wind Zaha up it could easily go the other way and I could see Lyanco getting sent off himself. Lavia hopefully fit enough for 30 mins or so off the bench.

He's just not good enough at this level. End of.

Agree about Perraud but not about Armstrong. He's played a large amount of games now and just doesn't have the required quality to succeed in this league.

I spoke to him after the game.

Tbf it was a blatant penalty on Jesus in the first half. DCC lost his man.

True, but if he plays in the Newcastle and Liverpool games then it's a bonus.

Good news is that KWP might be back sooner than expected

I genuinely don't think we've been that bad defensively this season. Lost a lot of games by the odd goal but the centre backs have been our best players. It's obvious where the issues have been. Central midfield (without Lavia) and attack.

Expecting to lose so I'd just be happy with a good performance. We haven't had one in so long.

Doesn't surprise me. It was a massive f*ck up on his part and could well contribute to us getting relegated.

If KWP is out I'd probably put Djenepo at RB.

Hell of a performance tonight. Bullied their CB's and didn't stop running for 90 minutes. Hopefully that header gives him a boost of confidence.

When Lavia is fit we should play 4-3-3 with Diallo and JWP infront of him. As he showed when he came on tonight, Diallo is great at carrying the ball forward. Much better as an 8 than at 6.

Adams won us that game because other than that we were absolutely awful

Ffs just give Edozie a chance

Semmens is just carrying on from where super Les Reed left off

Just beg that Ralph doesn't play Adam Armstrong upfront on his own if Che is out.

I'll be going to the Bell opposite Pokesdown train station. Think it's about a 15 minute walk to the ground from there.

IMO he actually got off very lightly after being smashed 9-0 twice and a fair few other drubbings. To say the fans haven't been patient is ridiculous.

Agreed. He's a solid defender at this level. Nothing special but good enough for us.

Yep. No doubt we will be adding Bournemouth, Palace and Newcastle to the list soon.

Would be a good appointment. Even better if he brought Okafor with him!

We need to start picking up wins against the teams around us, especially at home. 9 points minimum before the world cup really.

It's that much of a poor competition I almost played in it a couple of years ago
