    Roberts, when he comes central and looks to pass, is a good player.

    An all academy back 4 this half, interesting that Triantis isn't playing - wonder if he's got a slight knock

    He is a good player.

    Centrally he looks a VERY good player.

    I just did. £40 profit price was generous.

    This 2nd half lineup is a good indicator as to how much work we still have to do in the transfer market

    Kinda hoping they’re saving him for a midfield start on Monday. Would like to see what he’s got.

    Who’s centre back alongside Johnson?

    it’s a shame Riggy isn’t fit to play. Looked ok in training

    I think he's better when he drifts into central areas but still not convinced by him starting centrally

    Yeah him and Aleksic will narrow it right down. Defo seems to suit PR though. Another thing that may be useful this season.

    Chucked a £15 double on with Rakow for £80 back, cash is £55. Might just take it

    He definitely wouldn't suit us if we are planning on playing like we did in the 1st half imo - doesn't have the speed

    I think with the lack of CBs he will play there if he is fit

    Aye that’s why I said want to see him there more.

    I notice we played La Liga ball first half swapped to PL ball second.

    Or are there a mix of balls? Ha.

    Or did I imagine this?

    Just a reminder - in case anyone starts kicking off during this 2nd half - it’s mainly our reserve side on the pitch.

    Can count on one hand the players you’d expect to be in the matchday squad v West Ham.
