The negativity on this thread is staggering.

Watkins looks impressive in his warm ups on the touchline.

Very comfortable - another 45 of the same and we are in the next round - and that’s all that matters!!

Yeah, but against such a limited side. Why don't we just go and try and win well just for the sake of it?

On the plus side Rogers is definitely more lively.

We need to mix things up more

Because all we need to do is not lose. Simples. I don’t care how we do it

I see we've got the commentary dregs today on TNT.

I think Lucy Ward is very good.

And who are the non-dregs?

I do think one of our issues is both Onana and Doug are playing deep, which is unnecessary. So we end up finding it hard to break forward.

We definitely need to mix it up, maybe having a shot now and again. Or running fast.

She just likes to fill the silences too much with irrelevant info.

Sancho really is about as ineffectual as it's possible to be.

£200k per week.

Genuinely don't see what he offers as a winger/ inside forward.

Can he beat his man with pace or skill?  No.

Is he dangerous when he cuts inside and gets shots away?  (chance would be a fine thing).

Decent delivery from out wide? Nada.

Apart from that, a cracking little player.
