    Yeah, but that's boring. Right now, even if we win this is something of a forgettable cup tie. But if we use Maya as a striker and he wins it? Fond memories for life.

    Really feels to me like Puel's philosophy is to play at the lowest tempo that may still get us a win so as to use the least amount of energy required.


    I know Les Read tried to argue against he 'boring football' accusations but when it's every game I'm afraid I don't see how he can not see it (I can see why he has to be diplomatic and disagree with the comments though).

    Steve Clarridge's comment that it's 'like watching England' is spot on

    Is it the one that got loads of abuse a couple of seasons ago or are there actually two of them?

    Commentators are spot on.

    Bafflig to me that we aren't 4-4-2, if we're risking both our strikers

    Last fan text before the second half: " Have we signed another one George Weah's cousins? Because I'm listening to the commentary and all I keep hearing from Adam and Dave is 'dire' "

    Cuco at RB, Stephens CB, and Maya right wing, playing the Ronaldo role. Simple!

    Just checked. It's the same one. Didn't think there were two.

    Incorrect. Reed has been mentioned four times and each time it was followed with, "Reed could have had a yellow for that."

    No, injured I think.

    Redmond and Tadic are our only forward options.
