    Indeed, but they've got Palace, Burnley, Sheff United this month.

    We will lose all our games this month

    Sheff Utd are more likely to get out of it, won 3 of their last 5

    After the next 2 we should bear Wolves and Wba, even with the missing players

    Hmmmm I'm not sure wolves are stronger than us with Krafth, Joelinton and of course jonjo in our side and big Sam always gets one over us so we're getting **** all there

    Wolves have been **** since Raul got injured, dropping right down the league

    Sam is finished

    Joelinton can't be taking Wilson's place like, has to be Gayle

    This doom and gloom is absurd even by my low standards.

    Hayden or Fede alongside Clark is a fine CB partnership and Lascelles has ability, this new formation could suit him. Krafth is crap but he hasn’t got to bomb up and deliver crosses in this formation, he’s got to defend and he’s not that bad at that. Hayden could cover and Manq is probably only out for 3 matches.

    Losing Wilson is a blow; but in this slightly odd formation we can play Fraser and Max up or Gayle if we have to. Again Wilson only out for around 3/4 matches. Two are free swings anyway so let’s just get some decent players in midfield and see if we can get some points. I’m not worried about relegation - just need Jones to keep exerting influence, bring the Longstaffs back up a level and get Hendrick/Shelvey out of the team. Then it’s a Summer rebuild, hopefully under new owners.

    No. Someone didn't put a recall option in the loan contract.

    Na, he was flapping at nearly every cross and he should have known what Ward Prowse was going to do and been at that side to stop it

    Don't get me wrong I agree with u buy I do feel Darlow had a good game today. Made 2 or 3 excellent match winning saves

    Na I disagree he was poor today. Dubravka is much more comfortable with crosses today Darlow was like Pickford flapping all the time and like I say he should have known where Prowse was putting the free kick. He got lucky with the 1 that bounced off the post back to him too

    Krafth, Hayden, Clark and Dummett at the back and we’ll be fine.
    Hopefully Wilson isn’t too bad, nobody seems to be making a big thing about his injury.
    Disappointed for Manky though, he’s been outstanding recently.

    I dont care if we start losing as long as its apparent we put in 100% effort

    I didnt mind the first half against palace but i thought the second half was so poor, on reflection Palace are good at that stuff. But the subs were baffling.

    Is be tempted to put out our U23’s for the next 2 games to protect everyone for the important games after.
