Luiz our best player by miles again so far

Playing by himself in our midfield, the other two have been anonymous. Hourihanes effort to stop Mount was pathetic. Nakamba on for Houri please, might give Targett a bit more cover and by christ he needs it. Back to his standard hopeless defensive effort today.

I'd try AEG up front next to Davis who has been totally isolated with Jack in a free role behind them. Distance between our midfield and Davis has made ball retention impossible.

Can't imagine Giroud will appear for the second half, Hause has done well back there but Tammy will provide a threat they don't have currently.

Really poor performance so far but winning! Just hope Smith has the gumption to change our shape at half time.

At the start of lockdown I couldn't give a stuff about the rest of the season, now I feel physically sick and am a nervous wreck for the second half.  Maybe David O'Lear......

It's a long way off but it would be lovely to hold on

Is it bad to bet on a Chelsea win too soften the blow when the inevitable happens.

Only if your name is Damo.

Samatta on for Davis.

Hopefully Ally has been doing laps round Bodymoor in last few days. Could barely run v Sheffield.
