Think it's more a case of skipping down the list to a plan f or g : an experienced short term backup, and then getting one of the top of the listers when we are a more attractive option (hopefully Jan or summer). We could alternatively spend a lot more money now and have a long term deal for someone that is a lower on our list (a plan d or e) and will be harder to shift when we need someone better in the premiership.

Very excited by this. Have good depth and competition on either flank. Have lots of options depending on the game we want to play and who we are playing.

We have...depth..at right back?

This is the most I have seen us pass the ball (and successfully) in years.

Unlucky from the vulture.

Perfect time for Armstrong and yedlin. Will put clarke or hanley on and go three at the back...

Hayden and him look a good pair together. Can't think they'll be any better in this league. Especially if he can grow in confidence and feel some love. We are yet to see Shelvey even close to his best.

Murphy would have chipped it off all three posts and in tbh. Jonjo did alright.

Was just saying to myself I hope Shelvey scores he needs it more than anyone.

Oh fuck yes.

Deserved red

Absolutely horrific defending. We are conceding here if we don't smarten the fuck up.

Gouffran shots getting wilder.

Oh my days. Sels caught a ball when be could have punched it.

Always looked most effective when we played him as a forward wide or central. Unsurprisingly looked like turd as a DM or defensive left wing.

Has he ever played as a winger? Started as a winger/forward.

How long til 3 at the back again?

Anita and ritchie working well done the right. Diame and Hayden look good. Need to get back to the front foot and hopefully score a second to try and kill it off. Gouffran has done ok. Need a difference maker on the left wing like ritchie on the right. No surprise Perez is being bullied out there. He needs space and is a midget compared to Dunk.

Letting them back into this now. Need to keep the concentration. Crowd are restless.

definitely the danger man.

When did we remember we can pass? Some beautiful stuff so far today. Gouffran should have had two stunners. Hope it doesn't cost in the end.

Good stuff this. Exciting signing to contrast murphy.

To this signing. Not sure if he can still play out wide given his age. Maybe we are still getting another striker in too like it was reported we still wanted two. He adds more experience than Riviere and Armstrong and shows that mitro and gayle will be first choice. An Underwhelming signing at its best but could be a shrewd one.

Hopefully Diame Hayden Shelvey
