Orange ball most probable answer..
Would be suprised to see it abandoned IMO..
No way are we out of it, haven't played bad at all, Benrahama a little wasteful, Arthur failed to track back for goal, but hey, we playing against City, no shame....
COYI......( Would like to see Lanzini then perhaps Bowen introduced )....

Lanzini probably deserves to come on based on form, but with the state of the pitch I can’t see that keeping the ball is the priority. It’s got to be a case of counter attacking with page and making the most of set pieces.

They’ve cleared 2/3 of the pitch. Our hope of abandonment is rapidly diminishing.

Lukerz

Second half delayed for 5 mins

yoyo

Resumption delayed

Tv companies pushing for 25 minute half times so they can play more adverts, fantastic.

Pitch more or less cleared of snow, and it seems to have stopped coming down too. Can't see it being called off atm.

yoyo

Damn, they're back on

On my stream, Andy Gray is complaining that the under soil heating isn’t hot enough to instantly melt snow that lands on it 🧐

Could make it to the bar (or kettle) twice if you’re quick

Not the right thread, I know, but Wednesdays 7:30 game is live on Amazon prime

Any more snow could cause an abandonment as the City half has nobody in it.

Why have we now now gone all near post corners.

alderz

Benrahma has been off the boil today. His movement has been good, but his final touch / ball hasn’t been.

alderz

We give it away in the final third again, and they pounce so quickly. Cresswell getting a big whack off the post as he clears off the line

ASLEFshrugged

Ouch

MrsGrey

That looks painful.

alderz

Lanzini on for Benrahma

buffybegood

Lanzini on for Benrahma, Bowen was coming on as well but Moyes holding off on that to see is Cresswell will be OK

chicagohammer

That must have hurt,

buffybegood

Coufal on for Cresswell

alderz

Coufal on for Cresswell at left back

chicagohammer

Not surprised Cressers had to come off, that will bruise up and need treatment.

whupathman

Benni has so much talent but so inconsistent in the final third

chicagohammer

I think Rice is having a stormer

buffybegood

Rice getting frustrated at times, he's winning the ball and having no options at all to pass to.

Hammerwombat

Don’t forget how massive we are. We can nick this.

I’m surprised we’ve not change approach yet. Masuaku as a winger isn’t cutting it for me

Yeoldhammer

why not put Bowen on for Cresswell and go for it ?

whupathman

Bowen needs to come on for Arthur

Can only think it’s because Arthur isn’t trusted at left back
