His first big test is if he brings Ritchie straight back in Saturday.

He should have learnt before tonight that Clark isn’t good enough

We haven’t won in 14 games and have a horrific run of games coming, it’s realism not defeatism.

I have to disagree slightly, I think the majority of our players are absolutely awful and belong nowhere near the premier league.

Don’t understand how anyone can seriously think we stay up from this position tbh.

10 You don’t stay up from this position. We could go winless for a long while yet as well.

And Howe for picking him when it’s blatantly obvious he isn’t good enough.

Nope we need to win

Win or lose this squad isn’t good enough to stay up.

Not a fan of that lineup but let’s hope it’s good enough.

Heads up for anyone watching on prime that it’s usually delayed about 2/3 minutes behind real time so might want to avoid checking the game anywhere else.

Feels like the whole season comes down to this game.

Well things will be going on behind the scenes regarding recruitment of players. We know they are searching for a new CEO as well.

The leaks have dried up after the Emery news, seems they have learned their lesson which can only be good news.

Agree with draw most likely, think the pressure will be too much for them tonight. I just can’t see us winning a game anytime soon.

Hayden has to start to offer protection and to replace willock who’s been awful all season.

Why wouldn’t we be unhappy about going down ?

Seems to me they aren’t being panicked into any decisions regardless of our league position. Might be a little frustrating on the surface but shows there is a clear long term vision they want to set in place.

Lascelles is banned

Couldn’t care less how defensive or attacking we are to be honest, we just need wins.

First major test will be January window, we need players as soon as it opens.

Says it’s down to the owners wanting to carry out a thorough process.

So what’s different in January?

They have no money for the transfer window.
