I do think Holman looks the weak link going forward at the moment, and we need to work on penetration.

Haven't been impressed by him at all to be honest.

An effort on goal would be nice, Ireland started well but has faded for me. N'Zog looks as infuriating as ever.

We need more from N'Zog; he's a lightweight at the moment.

Nor me at all.

Put someone like Adam Johnson in there and we might have created something.

Amusingly Racist FC are losing. Sadly it's to the Bitter Birds.

Vlaar is finding it tough against the donkyiest striker in the PL.

That will be £15m and £80k a week then.

Played ok in patches, but not created a fat lot. Looked completely at sea for 10 minutes before they scored.

Let's calm down a bit, plenty of time to turn it round.

We've looked very good at times, but Allardyce scrappiness is doing for us so far. Just need to calm down, keep plugging away and I'm confident we can get something. Maybe get Bannan on for Zog or Weimann for Holman. Or both, to be honest, because they're not at it today.

We have one game plan and that's play through the middle hope that a through ball to Bent will find it's way through eventually. Unfortunately, West Ham sussed that one straight away.

If you do your shopping in Primark, you'll end up looking shitty.
