Good defending there.

[Goldie.7]

The football really is poor.

[Holte Sweet]

Any points gained in theses games is an unexpected bonus.The test for us is how we perform against the mid table teams.

Can't help thinking we look unbothered about losing this. Management and players.

[PeterWithesShin]

Zog and Bent on.

I still think Lambert is fucking shit. He is so negative, as soon as we go behind there is no way back

[supertom]

I appreciate Andi works his bollocks off but he's so poor when we're on the attack. He's no a left midfielder by any stretch of the imagination. I'd honestly sacrifice a bit of that work for some balance on the left and potential threat in Zogbia.
We need to make 1-2 changes now that's for sure. There's no point showing zero attacking intent and quality. We don't have to be gung ho, but we might as well sacrifice Andi and/or Richardson for a bit more quality.

Steve Claridge - "Darren Bent has got quite big hasn't he"

he's a total cock but correct

When fatty boom boom Claridge says that, you know it's time to hit the gym.
Benty is looking quite Holt-esque it must be said.

[Smirker]

Think we've done well really. Just outclassed.

We are still in a great position with key players to come back.

[ez]

Can't see the substitutions having much effect if we are sticking to the same formation.

[SamTheMouse]

You can criticise Lambert all you like, but when your players can't miss the first fucking man with a single set piece all afternoon, there's not much you can do.

I thought Cleverley was supposed to take a decent free kick. He keeps hitting the first defender.
