Sainz cost us those two points. He had a simple pass to Hernandez for a tap in in the 74th minute, and chose not to make it. If we'd scored then, we'd have had at least 20 minutes to get another. Poor from Sainz, and not the first time this season he's failed to do what the situation demanded.
I think Marcondes was the better pass, certainly should have tried either option rather than shooting from the narrow angle, especially with a player back on the line. He’s got a lot of credit in the bank for the gaksk he’s scored this season though
 
Knowing the FA we will end up with another charge, although as it wasn’t McLean they may not looks at it
Never underestimate the FA, as there may now be a 6 match ban for Sainz for allegedly spitting in the Sunderland game according to the Pinkun:

"Sainz played the full 90 minutes on Sunday but Thorup confirmed afterwards the FA have contacted the club but are yet to charge the winger after a spicy defeat on Wearside. The Dane was unable to confirm the incident is of a spitting nature, which if the FA decide to charge Sainz could potentially lead to a six-game ban. It came to our attention that something happened, and probably there's an incident in the game, and we're still waiting for some evidence and exactly what it is. And of course, when we get to know that, then we find out how to deal with the situation. There's no charge at the moment, and there's, of course, also the reason why he's playing, and I also expect that he'll be ready for the team again on Wednesday (Luton away), but we never know when we have to wait and see if there will come a charge. We can probably expect something within the next couple of days. I will go and ask Borja about the situation. The focus was about the game and getting a result here. This just came to my attention in the last day or two. I was not going to do anything about it because on a game day we are concerned about that. It is difficult to see if there will come a charge, or if there will be a charge, they can deal with it before the Luton game. I find it hard to believe that that will be the case. But again, we have to wait and see what it is. There's a lot of ifs at the moment, and we need to find out, but we'll probably know more tomorrow."

Pretty sure Liverpool will recall Gordon. Not getting game time with us. And we are short of RW first teamers, given that Fassnacht will, seemingly, not play for us again.
 
If Sainz is suspended, JHT's WL options would seem to be Hernandez, Schwartau and perhaps Forsyth with Forson and Gordon (if he stays) as the WR options.
Elliot Myles has featured on the bench for the last few matches, perhaps an opportunity for the 17year old to get some minutes, I think he’s predominantly a LW.
