    Game is opening up a bit. Thank you John Champion for saying we were very unlucky not to win the League Cup, just then. Now he's talking about us missing Pelle and Mane.

    Is there an explanation how a player with Steven Davis ability on the ball can be so utterly useless at shooting. It's consistently hopeless

    Great goal by Sanchez. We opened up too much.

    Always the same, sadly. Yoshida and Stephens got sold bad.

    Stephens and Yoshida gave a masterclass in defending

    Our form against the top 6 this season has been wretched.

    Can we play a video referee review card please, the goal kick definitely didn't leave the penalty area before that goal.

    That is essentially what you get without the presence of a truly dominant CB like VVD.

    We need a better player than Davis to play alongside Romeu. He's a decent player but he's not a DM and JWP deserves his place ahead of the two DM's.

    The defence would be under less pressure if we could actually score a few goals.

    But hopefully not for Gabbiadini this time - need a goal!

    I'd take off Tadic for Boufal, and JWP or Davis for Long
