    9 shots to 0 is not good enough after 40 minutes. Like a newly promoted side.
  • When is the possession based attacking football coming? Bad enough we can't defend but we can't attack either
  • I meant in our last three visits
  • Alvarez is such a liability with all the cards he picks up.
  • Well, we managed a shot. Big yay.
  • Alvarez off

    Alvarez off.

    So stupid, as we had so much cover.
  • Alvarez is so reckless
  • Alvarez. What a moron!
  • So poor.

    But has the manager sent them out to play so badly?

    It's like we have no-one in the club who does opposition research.
  • The guy is a disgrace
  • Yeah JL is not gonna last long
  • It's like Pellegrini all over again.

    I wouldn't say a disgrace, more completely stupid.

    Alvarez, hold your head in shame, a SHOCKING decision.....
    This is going to be a 2nd half that will be hard to watch.
    Have ourselves to blame, hopeless defending for the goal.
    Hopeless starting line up.
    Horrendous decision from Alvarez.
    WOW...What a shocker
  • That tackle was never necessary, we had plenty of cover.
    PATHETIC decision....IMO
  • Lopetegui lucky Alvarez got the red card to take all the heat away.
  • Need Antonio and Soucek on.
  • So much for building on last week
  • Let's be real here, we got VERY, VERY lucky last week......
    This 1st half offered zero going forward apart from Paqueta's effort, but come on, it's been VERY POOR....

    Soucek not in squad....
  • Bowen, Paqueta and Summerville have showed very little apart from one shot on goal. And now we have to play 45 minutes with 10 men. Both yellow cards totally unnecessary.
  • The red mist certainly came over him, it did not seem like a terrible performance but their goal was criminally defended and apart from a late shot from Paqueta- we literally had not laid a glove on them,

    Antonio has to come on as he can hold the ball and charge forward when the opportunity presents, we have seen nothing of Summerville or Bowen and they need to show up.
  • Good news is Paqueta has not been booked . =) =)
  • Fab
    AWB Mavropanos Todibo Emerson
    Guido Kilman Paqueta
    Bowen Antonio

    If we are to try and get something from this game, I think we need players that are versatile and adaptable. Summerville sadly isn't that - he's pretty one footed/sided and doesn't have the physicality when down to 10. Antonio on the other hand can run either channel and offer support central.

    I'd also move one of the CB's into a defensive midfield role, considering that Guido is on a yellow and lacks pace (Kilman probably best for this as he's good on the ball) and it will help beef us up in the middle. I'd bring Paqueta central too and can support the transition from mdfield to attack (imo he's wasted out wide in this match).

    Antonio on for Summerville I think. And Soler on for Rodriguez.
  • We’re continuing our 2024 record of not beating a side sitting in the top 10.

    Quite a difference, they came back up in 2022, we lost 5-0 with kids there in the FA Cup back in January 2014 under Allardyce.
  • Is it me or are we playing better with 10
