Can't see the images.

I can see them.

No many options on the bench if we end up chasing a goal

[PaulWinch again]

I fear for us tonight this just feels like a real banana skin. Hope I'm wrong and we win comfortably.

[Malandro]

It's a shame Wes Brown isn't still alongside O'Shea.

[manic-road]

I suppose Jedinak could come off the bench if a centre half gets crocked, really hoping that we make a statement tonight and win comfortably.

Yeah, Grealish is kind of it and he is not exactly prolific. On the plus side however all of the other outfield subs he has picked DO have goals in them.

Also Ruiter Grealish get on and earn us some free kicks near their goal please.

Can’t understand why OHare is not on the bench ahead of Barney, unless he’s our secret weapon

Good to see Grealish and Lansbury are fit.  Appreciate Lansbury hasn't pulls up trees to date, but we need as many fit players as possible over the long winter.  I'm also hopeful he may look better in the more confident team we seem to be becoming.

Still a very strong 18 considering who we are missing. Kodjia, Hogan, Gabby, RHM all injured?

[Bad English]

No offence but why would we be missing Flabby fucking Aintgonnascore? Is he not dead to us now?

& Terry and Green.

Yup, plus Terry.

Extra good news we STILL are not low enough on options to have to add Richards to the squad
