Their manager would've hooked him at half time if he played for them.

But yeah, the midfield is absolutely honking at the moment.

Even if you disregard Burn being targeted and exposed every game, Tino's attacking quality is enough to merit him starting. We look miles more dangerous when he's on the field. Arguably our most athletic and technical option when he gets it in the final third.

Whew. Unconvincing but the lads dug in well. Big confidence boost hopefully.

He's not even that good on set pieces. Definite sense of the Peter Crouch about him where he gets his head to it but it often without any conviction on direction.

Would rather that than win 1-0 tbh.

Fastest player in the prem did the commentator say? Unfortunately on Howe that one.

Getting mugged off in midfield.

No chance, surely?

We look old and slow.

Would be a terrible loss, especially in Jan. Both on and off the field he's our figurehead and sets the standards. Yes he's getting on and we need to bring money in, but there's a line where the negatives outweigh the positives. He's one of only 4 or 5 elite players we've got.

Where's the pragmatism of last year gone?

Typed it out then deleted, for the sake of the discourse.

Should really be phased out sooner rather than later. We need someone with better technique in that position. Miley already much better in that department.

We lack athleticism at the back and creativity going forward. We rely on the system to get us in good positions which is fine, but there's a distinct lack of quality in the final decision, pass or shot. The lack of pace and athleticism stops us from being truly able to push up the pitch and pin teams back too. Too many times recently we're caught in two minds and make it easy for the opposition to counter us. CB, DM and RW pls.

Several yards off it from the beginning, second to every loose ball, no technical quality apart from Bruno, gaping gaps all over the pitch. Dog dirt. We move on, however.

Still sickened this morning. Actually considered pulling a sickie as I know I'll be in a stinking mood all day at work.

We've not got the players to break these down with neat football. Get it out to Hall and Tripps to whip in and go for a lucky bounce off Joelinton imo.

Painful viewing. But hey we're still in it.

Wouldn't mind seeing Target on for Burn with their winger and full back pushing on. They've got no height from open play anyway.

Shame, good effort to get the equaliser but was clear form quite early on it wasn't meant to be. Move on.

Score draw or 6-1.

Running on 2 hours sleep and still bounced out of bed this morning. I'm incredibly proud to support this club.

Incredible shift from him. Just doesn't stop.

Like a young Titus Bramble that. Sumptuous.
