We could have won this 5-0, and it still wouldn't made anything other than a victory against Stoke as acceptable in my book. We have to beat Stoke now, just like we had to beat Stoke two hours, I my view.
I thought Carrillo was decent but he has to drop deep too often to get possession. Was disappointed with Cedric today.
We were so bad. Sims has to start. Shock, gabbiadini our only finisher with the goal. Carrillo is a waste of money.
I know it'll sound like me having a dig, but to be frank he had no choice. We were losing with less than 20 mins to go, against Burnley. He had to make positive changes.
Let's look at the bigger picture here... The biggest thing about that goal is we get another Laces thread
True, but better than going out with an unsatisfying whimper like we have done in too many games earlier in the season. I actually think bringing on Gabbiadini meant we struggled to get possession and going forwards more so than before!
How important a point that could be. Without it, a single win could only put us over 2 teams...that point brings a couple more into our orbit. I no longer care about anything but points. An awful day turned into an OK, put a line through it day.
