    So Dummett's natural position is as a RB? Maybe that's why he doesn't look great at LB.<whistle>

    How exactly could it be any better with what we've got atm? Oh you think our whole squad's crap, yeah I remember.

    And I always get full backs muddled, Lazaar playing for Morocco mid week, so he really need to try him in the 1st team sooner rather than later, Dummett could be dropped.

    Actually we've lost points because of his lack of ambition at times.

    We played this way vs Villa while they had 3 at the back, and they were basically exposed. If we had of gone 4-4-2, we'd have probably tanked them in the first half, but relied purely on break away goals from ****ing loner Gayle.

    We only scored 1 goal and then camped back in our own half in the 2nd half of the game and it cost us.

    Against Rotherham, we did the same thing. Cautious 4-5-1, and we only just scraped 1-0 win because we, again, almost conceded another late set piece.

    We need to show more ambition and try to win the game by scoring enough goals to see us out of sight, not control possession and hope we can cling on to a 1-2 goal lead.

    I saw a formation which I agreed with today. Let's see if I get 8 or more of the team right:
    .............Mitrovic......Gayle...
    Gouff... Shelvey... Hayden... Ritchie..
    Lazaar.. Clark... Lascelles... Yedlin..
    .....................Darlow.............

    You've so far predicted 3-0, 1-1 and 7-0. Any more guesses?

    I'd go along with that if caution was preventing us from creating chances. It isn't. We create buckets of chances. I don't think Rafa can be blamed for the finishing.

    So I'm stuck at home because I can't find my season ticket which has mysteriously disappeared since going on holiday. Fuming.

    Stuck with a personal stereo listening to a crackly AM radio broadcast. I'm sure TV coverage was far better in the 09/10 season.
