    When you sacrifice a midfielder for an extra CB, you basically stop any sort of passing and link up play with the forwards. We cannot create any space in their half because our only 3v2 is our centre backs being marked by two strikers. The forwards are all outnumbered.

    So our CBs constantly have the ball, with no way to even get it to our centre midfielders let alone Ings and Redmond.

    We might have to just think **** it, play Shane Long and send balls into the channel to get it forwards.

    Are we going for an early relegation? Avoid the long drawn out saga, get it over by Xmas.

    Moussa was over there just then too.

    Any under-8 school team playing like us would get serious stick at half time.

    If it’s not bad enough that I can’t see what the formation is supposed to be and can’t see what tactics Ralph has sent them out with, I don’t think the players know either

    This is L2 stuff. Ralph looks like he's going to explode.

    I was told that if you have nothing positive to say about something then say nothing. So I'm saying nothing (except that we continue to serve up the worst pish I've ever seen us play)

    I'd welcome Allardyce with open arms right now.

    I think maybe we don't actually have a good manager...

    You will need more than just a manager change to change this team.

    0 shots on goal first half, at least we aren’t playing boring Allardyce ball

    For me, Valery on for any of the CBs
    Revert to 4-3-3 with Valery, CB, CB, Cedric/JWP, Romeu, Armstrong/ Redders, Ings,Dejempo

    Well the positive there is that somehow we’re only one down.

    A bad combination of poor players plus poor manager = very poor team. Simples
