I don't think Trez, Bertie or ElGhazi will be here come the end of the summer.

I’d be surprised if all three went.

By the end of the summer? I can easily see all 3 going, particularly if Coutinho works out.

I’d keep Traore. He can change a game.

I think Gerrard will want much stronger more powerful runners in the front 3, especially if one is Coutinho.

I'd just save the money having watched that. You're never going to be allowed to compete with them lot or the rest of them. Been the case for 30 years will be the case for the next e0.

Didnt make bench tonight. Cant see Gerrard being a fan of his at all.

I'm starting to think we need to sign a goalscorer

I think we need to start signing some match officials. Everyone else seems to be doing it.

An ex-blose 'keeper?  :o

Gonna strip the bed sheet off the bed. Anyone got any paint?

And yet another example what sets us apart from the beasts - i have no problem at all that he played for them whereas it would be the only thing that mattered the other way round.
like them singing at Sam Johnstone that he’s ex Villa. Whilst Hogan & Gardner were in their team.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Gerrard have a look at Freddie Gilbert in the summer when he is back. The output from Cash is terrible for the positions he gets into.

I'd be amazed if all our focus is not now on the holding midfield role. You can see how Gerrard wants to play, and it looks like it could well work, but that holding player is the key. I am fairly certain a forward with pace and power coming from wide will be targeted too.

The quick delivery from out wide seems to be out of favour these days no wonder strikers are suffering, only when there is no other option. Time and again last night we saw the ball passed inside to players that were being crowded out.

I think last night showed the areas we need to improve.
The full backs were both poor offensively again.
We need more composure in midfield. Another mistake at centre half and lack of cutting edge up front.

Cash is a bit concerning.
He is starting to look like what we bought, a championship full back.
