I dinner mate we had to change it and Diallo and Jacku are threats but went too deep Embleton would normally come on but he’s starting to frustrate and circuit was injured
At half time I would have hooked Roberts and brought on Wright. Go to 4 at the back (O'Nien-Wright-Batth-Cirkin) and let Gooch and Clarke attack without defensive responsibilities. Get Pritchard closer to Simms and have Neil sitting deeper with Evans.
As half wore on, Diallo for Clarke, Embo for Pritchard
No idea where Diallo was supposed to be playing (neither did he). Dajaku for Gooch was bizarre
Obvious point, but very true.
We looked toothless
Soon as I heard we were without Stewart I said to the wife, we will not not score tonight, was not a difficult call to make
And he joys false tan on the posing twàt he’s near yas bad as him years ago that stared at his own biceps. Can’t remember his name but am ganna Google it
I just thought we wanted more attacking on but they didn’t gel. May be the injury three everyone especially this early in as manager. We’ll be good though mate
I would've gone for Ronaldo - it's the kinda thing he would do but he only refs in his own head
Howard Webb And dinnit take the piss am sensitive.

Speaks well again imo
I'm not sure that a team struggling to get to grips with the game would have benefited from a formation change at half time, how often have we played 4 at the back this season? Genuine question, I can't remember.
Tricky one with Clarke, some games he's poor first half and great in the second, same would probably apply to Roberts if he'd had the same minutes. Today was just a bad day for Clarke, when he did get a chance he wasted it.
