    Well, he has missed a pen and got Oriol on a yellow for doing his job. Mawson h/ball, not sure, but they will be happy with him.

    He really is pants. I like the firm gestures when there's an obvious decision.

    We could still really use a player at a position other than striker who is capable of getting a shot on target, heh.

    Not much change from last season so far... hopefully we can be more clinical in the last third in the second half.

    Been some great football there. Seem to be playing with more freedom. Hopeful we'll get the points if we stick at it.

    This isn't going to be another boring home performance, is it?

    I beg to differ, we've created more chances in this half than in last five matches under Puel.

    The football seems a lot more enjoyable than last season...

    I think we played at a higher tempo than we (mostly) did last season but we still aren't taking our chances.

    Good possession, good pressing, a decent number of chances, just can't score.

    Boufal for Redmond for me, Nathan the invisible man. Davis also seems to be struggling.

    Yes, Davis seems to be carrying a knock - not in his natural, more forward, position either. We played some nice stuff down the left: Boufal might be able to exploit that more than Redmond has.

    Will we see Mario make his debut for Davis? I don't want to bring on Boufal until at least the 60th minute. Redmond's energy is too useful!

    Interesting fact: We are the only side in the premier league not to field a new signing either today or yesterday

    Interesting Fact 2: We're currently sitting in our usual 8th position!

    I imagine Lemina will come on if Davis can't continue. He may be more suited to the role anyway.

    Boufal and Austin are the obvious bench options if/when we need to chase a goal.
