Played great for most part.  Guttted by the result - wasn’t it always thus - but certainly lots to be optimistic about.

Manu first goal should’ve have been.
Played them off the park for most.

Special mention for Neville.  I thought he was a decent guy. But today never have I ever listened to such a wanker.

Expected it but disappointed as we should have won easily. With our key defenders missing we were always vulnerable, Carlos is woeful and Lenglet tries but is not Pau. Cash at fault for their winner, got caught behind his man. Another game where we were the better side but lost to individual errors, Ramsey had four or five chances but has not got his sharpness quite there yet.

Somebody, somewhere needs to explain that Bailey substitute to me. We had them shiting it down the Right at that point and we decided to settle. Got what we deserved.

Yeah terrible decision, Diaby was awful when he came on unfortunately. Luiz scores and we go on and win. Really tight margins. Sickening defeat after a strong performance.

Martinez 7, Cash 4, Carlos 6, Lenglet 5, Moreno 7, Luiz 8, Kamara 7 (Diaby 4), Bailey 7 (Tielemans 6), McGinn 7, Ramsey 7, Watkins 7.

Watkins 7? You're having a laugh. Try 3.
Don’t be ridiculous

Ramsey was in the right position time and time again, I’m amazed he lasted as long as he did. His finishing let him down but it’s too be expected.

Unai killed off the momentum with the subs though by then we should have been out of sight.

Very poor defending by Cash once again.

The ref was a twat but didn't lose us the game.

When we bought Diaby on we could of taken them to the cleaners down that side. So why Unai took off Bailey is an absolute mystery. For the first time since he joined us I'm pretty annoyed with Emery. Having said all that we had gilt edged chances and fluffed our lines so we can't blame Emery for that. Dougies chance to put us 2-1 up was as good as anything we could hope for and he fucking choked. I'm so pissed off right now. Get the beers in someone.

Feel shite after that


glad they played well villa after the last few home games but ffs put your chances away .

Watkins my girlfriend could have scored that , not good enough .

Losing that is criminal.

oh taking Bailey off ???  he looked good and Diaby sorry waste of money .   Might come good in 2027

Ramsey and Watkins were woeful.

Ridiculous, Watkins dominated Varane. On another night he gets a hat trick. Ramsey solid game but touch let him on crucial occasions. Best performance on our left flank for weeks.

Not sure what game Ez was watching but I thought they played well.

When they equalised they had gone to shit and that was the time to bury them but no, we allowed them breathing space and ten minutes to get themselves back together. It was far better than Wednesday but Digne should have been on with 20 to go, Bailey should have stayed on, and we stroll that. It's the lack of belief that will see us finish 6th. Good to see Ramsay get a run out and please God, Torres starts next game. Hey ho, it's the hope that kills you...

Well lads, there it is. Unai is some coach, but too many injuries in that defence have really destabilised the team. Let's go for fifth and the Conference League and hope England get that extra spot.

Not sure we'll be able to keep Spurs at bay.

Extra spot.

He’s taken questionable money for a Henderson type ‘mission’. Not sure he’s ever been ok. Check the roasting he got on Have I got news for you.

I agree and you’ll see that with the comments I’ve made. Stick to the people who are making some ridiculous comments during and after the game 👍🏻
