Absloute beast in that first half, looked like a man having a kickabout with some 5 yearolds, hope his injury isn't too serious.

Almost unfair that we started him against such a shit side, dominated them from start to finish.

He did well today and got quite a few interceptions, even used his right foot a couple of times!

He looked like he's finding it hard to run or slide; maybe he is playing with an injury after all.

I've mentioned this before but Dan Ashworth takes more blame than Eddie; Eddie had a team made mostly out of Steve Bruce's players beat psg 4-1 in the champions league; our recuritment and prepration for this season have been terrible and the DOF takes the blame for that.

I still maintain he deserves to see the season out no matter what happens, we can start evaluating and planning towards the end of it.

Krafth on the right and Tino at LB.

Putting him against Salah was a crime by Howe.

He does so much good and so much bad over 90 minutes, needs to learn how to compose himself and pick the right option.

We looked like a Steve Bruce team tonight, the plan seemed to be sit back and hope something magically happen.

Videos of his own goal miss are circulating everywhere now.

As sad as i am that with travelling back i won't get to watch more games from SJP, i am relieved i won't have to watch him again, not replacing him has really hurt us this season and i really hope its the last season he starts this many games, if i was the owners i'd tell Ashworth to go and not comeback until we find a replacment.

Another poor showing from him today, he needs to starts stepping up or he'll find himself falling from the ranks.

He's fucking world class, much better than the names mentioned above and i love them, its not like he's playing in a midfield three with Pirlo and Seedorf at the moment.

He's terrible at CB and all over the place when it comes to where to position himself.

How the fuck did Chris Wood turn him like he's Messi.

Around the same time last year i sat on the same seat i sat in today and watched him miss chance after chance for us against Leeds for it to end 0-0, today he shows up and plays like fucking Pele just because he's wearing a different shirt. he can fuck off like

Him and Isak were our best two today.

Every game he does it and never learns.

He deserves to see out the season and start next season, however a loss to Sunderland will make a lot of people turn on him, he is doing more wrong than right at the moment.

Is it fair to say most of the blame for not preparing the team well for this season falls on him?

Wish you didn't share that picture, like i've said previously in this thread not replacing him with someone better has costed us big time this season.

He really needs to cut the diving thing and just try and stay on his feet and make something happen.

I don't think he's prepared us well for this season, i understand buliding and having a long-term plan but needed to focus on a huge season in front of him first.

Another shit performance, lots of people said not getting a proper player in his position will cost us this season and it did, don't know how Ashworth and co Didn't see this coming
