    We should be passing to Pelle's feet more and using him and others (Tadic) as a pivot to get behind their defence. First time pass from the pivot to a runner or a one two with the player that played the original pass to feet running off the pivot

    Bring on Long, look more for the pass inside, we have the pace and Long will stretch the defence. If we score from a cross WBA will gobble these up.

    I agree with the bit that Wanyama is poor today.

    A bit OTT and kneejerk there.

    Jumping to his defence as usual. He has been **** and uncommitted. Worst player on the park by miles

    Yes, but the part that Reed plays over him every time is just stupid.

    Dunno about that. On the few occasions I can remember us trying to do that Pelle has had a tendency to lose the ball.

    They are basically playing 4 central midfielders plus Berahino dropping in, their entire defensive gameplan is just choking the midfield with numbers. Attempting to play through that would be equivolent to butting our head against a wall for 90 minutes.

    He's had a poor game, yes, and has been replaced. The rest of your post was excessive, bordering on absurd though.

    I've been saying it all season. He pissed me off against west ham when Reed did his own job and Wanyama's the entire first half. Wanyama's ****ed off now thankfully . Hopefully Davis has some confidence and passes it forward as much as he can

    In part because he creates zero separation right now, so any balls played into his feet (save for on the break) involve a defender or two plastered to him.

    He hasn't been committed at all. That's not good enough considering what he earns per week. I don't have a go if a player is plying ****, as long as they try their best.

    I know you lot are easily offended on here and seem to think the players can do no wrong. But I will call it as it is and don't care about upsetting anyone with the truth. Schneiderlin hasn't helped him much either. Anyway I'm going to drop it now and just watch the game
