et tu brute

Surely last time was more to do with Lamptey absolutely tearing us a new one.

Totally correct he’s fucking shit.

I would play Carroll against them as they are certainly a threat from set pieces.This is one game we cannot get beat in, yet if we did win (if Brighton get beat off Southampton) could just about seal staying up.

In fairness, we're missing by far our best three attacking players. So why continue to use a system which doesn’t work for the current players available.

WE don't look capable of beating anyone unfortunately. West Brom and Villa without Grealish are about as easy as it gets. We'll draw against Brighton as well, telling you now. As s*** as we are, we’ve looked capable of winning the last 3 games. If Brighton and Fulham get beat this weekend and we are either a point or two within their points total (+ or -) we are still in it with the return of the ASM, Wilson and Almiron.

Can’t believe that decision after the atrocity of playing him on the right it’s then decided to play him on the left. Gayle is a box player nothing more. The system has to be f***ed off until the 3 suited to the system return.

Yet we’re still playing the system he brought in which is not suited to the players currently available.

Correct and have two wingers who can feed the ball into the box. He is not a player who plays on the left or the right he’s a goal scorer only.

He's f***ing s**** man stop trying to make excuses for him What excuse? I think he did ok tonight You need glasses then

He's fucking shite man stop trying to make excuses for him

Down

This is the system Jones was lauded for tbf. Its bollocks. With these players it’s awful. Could work ok though I agree with the 3 injured players available but you're right not with this lot

It really is stupid from Gayle. It's like he expects play to stop as it is so he can get in the box. Maybe if he was in his proper position and playing in and around the box, there wouldn't be a problem. He is not a right or left sided player never has been and never will be

I'm not that convinced it is Bruce, this is Jones's system

That sysatem does not work with that group of players and playing Gayle on the wing again is absolutely shocking tactics. Fucking hell man it's so fucking obvious

Forty fuckin million quid. He's a total donkey every time he gets the ball he fucks up, get him off the fucking pitch

Fuck off you absolute fucking domkey, how the fuck that utter useless cunt keeps getting a game

I don't think he will play as an out and out striker, it will be the same role as previous. Also Gayle totally relies on service especially from the wing. He's not going to get any on the right hand side with Joelington and Krath that's for sure.

Even if he's playing in the centre role, if you look at last week when he came on (and under instruction by Jones on the touchline before he did), he spent more time in his own half than he did in the West Brom half

what is even grimmer, is it seems like we're keeping the same system with Gayle on the right hand side or the false 9 role. Mentioned it earlier this week that the system does not suit the current players, you now have to seriously question Jones also if he can't see that and doesn't have another way of playing. Surely it will be JoeL on the right and Gayle up top? Probably, but with this setup I wouldn't discount it.

If he’s the one picking the team I agree. I agree that he may not be picking the team, but it's his system and that system is not suited to the current players available.

and Joelington totally fucking unreal

Just noticed he's saying Gayle starts tonight, I agree though the bloke hasn't a clue

Yeah, sounds like she’s actually done quite well here. I don’t think having to pay 20m for her own legal costs is what I would class as doing well mind. Could have been worse, but, her aim was to win the case and have her legal costs covered in that.
