    Because I really, really, really want Everton to go down. If it means Saints lose a meaningless game so be it.

    How has Ralph not changed this complete shower at half time?! If you keep doing the same things then expect the same results... <doh>

    I realise the tactics are a bit odd, but the lack of urgency and quality is more worrying.

    Change the shape, we're losing the midfield battle. 4-4-2, Valery and Mo El off, for Che Adams and Redmond

    Ok we are definitely trying to get Everton relegated on purpose, I can’t find a better explanation for this.

    I'm guessing no subs are because this is already the line up Ralph would switch to to avoid a 9-0 ?

    He’s probably giving them 15 minutes to redeem themselves.
    If not then must be changes.

    The commentators seem to think Burnley are doing well. They’re not really, we’re just being awful.

    Didn't think I'd say this, but I'm losing patients with Ralph.

    Clueless performance, why hasn’t RH changed it back to 4-2-2-2 with Adams up front with Broja who looks lost by himself

    I doubt very much Ralph would have gone with this starting lineup if we were 2-0 down on aggregate so I don’t get why he stuck with it at halftime. Does he realise how much we would like to see Everton relegated? Predictably it’s now lots of posession against compact burnley. Chances of scoring? Slim.

    Was that misplaced cross our first shot on target? Not sure how we are going to score when we only have 3 players on the edge of the area against about 8 of their players...
