    Regarding bringing in new players, my main concern is that Ralph only seems to want to work with youngsters.

    I can see why we played anyone at full back the last few weeks

    Now that I very much doubt is what he *wants* to have to do.

    Good point. He more than likely thought we would offload one or two more and had defenders in mind.

    Hopefully as contracts expire and deadwood is shipped off we start to invest in the right areas.

    At the moment he’s using what is available at a reasonable standard but he has been regularly quoted as wanting to just bring in younger players looking for, maybe their second contract.
    Take Yoshi and Bertrand out of this team and it is quite young

    And Lampard does not have much choice with the transfer embargo, not going too badly for him with his youngsters, just saying...

    Vesty has been a regular for him. Not many other options really.

    Don’t forget Romeu

    When Chelsea shoot, there's a save or a goal. When we shoot its over the bar. Don't they practise at all?

    Yep, I wouldn’t call JWP or Redmond young in football terms either, I’d say anything over 23 and it’s not really young in footballing terms
