He had no chance though after a totally shit pass which was a good opportunity on the break. How was it a shit pass. Anyone with half a yard of pace would have been directly in

Atsu has been utterly dreadful today, even when measured against his bad performances.

Joelinton looks incapable of making even a crisp pass.

Ritchie should think himself lucky he's likely to not be able to come on today now.

We have so many players that struggle with the basics of football.

Whilst I agree, he was critical in our goal and had contributed to our best opportunities.

I'm as cynical as everyone else with his signing (although not to the extent that I can't see the contribution he's made so far), but I do need to remind myself every now and then, that the only other player I've experienced equal or more joy from seeing score a goal for us was Shearer. Internal politics aside I'd love to see him have a successful second run with us.

I think he's been mostly woeful at this level. He deserves praise for his recent performances though; I can't remember the last time I singled him out as a standout problem.

He worked very hard to be fair.

Other than stopping when he should have run towards that ball, was he noticeably shitter than anyone else on the pitch? He started pretty well.

Yeah it's looking highly unlikely we'll go down at this point. Not by any means a certainty but we're proving effective enough at anti-footballing our opponents that we'll probably survive.

Jammy is a pretty strong word to use given how equally poor Palace were. That said, I thought it would be end up 0-1.

I'll admit, the last couple of times I've seen him play he's been good. Very surprising, but equally welcome.

Or an incredibly lucky one.

When a performance of this calibre all but serves up a win you've got to question whether this league really is as good as suggested

So happy for him personally.

Christ sake

FYP

This has got to be the worst game I've seen from us for at least a week.

Punters will head for home happy they got their money's worth then. He's been one of our better players tbf. Says very little, mind. Well actually I suppose it does - when you consider a striker that's had fuck all chances as one of your better performers there's a problem.

"Unleash" Gayle

Keep telling yourself that buddy It was broadly the same IMO. But last year there was faith that there was a season long plan.

"No changes for the second half". More of a performance forecast than a personnel update.
