Spicy Lancashire derby Two red cards and looks like a Preston lad has bitten the Blackburn lad who got sent off

Minteh on the bench for the Minteh vs Anderson derby

If we don't think we can beat Everton then that's a huge concern

Bruno gets away with that foul every game and the referee usually buys it. Looks like they might have clocked on

We weren't exactly defensively sound with Botman in the team last season mind

Thought the ref was fine in our game btw and found it embarrassing Bruno and Gordon trying to con him so easily by just falling over

It's hardly knee jerking when performances have been poor all season (and away performances poor for 12 months) and we had a disappointing transfer window

I think we're petrified of making Isak press too much his hamstring will go and we'll lose him for a considerable amount of time I don't think he's the best 'presser' anyway. It's not his game

I don't think Gordon playing off Isak with Barnes on the left is the worst idea to be honest. Worked well for a period in the second half

There's no way Gordon only has 18 months left on his deal

Thought Joachim Andersen was outstanding for them today

Don't understand how a lad in his mid 20s with a huge amount of stamina and technical ability in the world is so slow

Ah the Pardew/ Ben Arfa treatment

If his first eleven were playing well he wouldn't have to make half time subs

And yet we're playing poorer than we've ever played in his 3 years?

Two games in a row he's made multiple half time changes after we've had 3 years of him barely ever making them. Gordon and Barnes swapped wings incredibly early today. I love him but he's clearly struggling to work out our most effective team.

The worrying sign is our away performances have been like this for 12 months now and he's still not got us playing any better in that time

Not sure what Tonali did to deserve a 6. Him kicking an easy ball down the line to Murphy out for a goal kick was frustrating. The decision making and passing in the final third was abysmal all game

His lack of pace is so infuriating

Kenedy esque half

Basically if the opposition mark Bruno we've got no one to get the ball from midfield. Our lack of pace, strength and technical ability in the midfield is being completely shown up today

Incredibly bad half

Who the fuck is Andy Irving playing for West Ham Random 24 year old Scottish midfielder, assumed he was a regen youngster
