Entertaining game last night and some lovely attacking play at times.
But this team can't hold a lead, they get cautious, tentative and panic ridden and teams exploit them.
Don't know how we will cope without our African Nations players.
Mount finally looks a player.
Great to be in the ground

Great being here after so long. Nice to be winning but why do we drop off when we take the lead.
Teams repeatedly come back against us.
We need to get a few hammered in the first 30 minutes.
Some lovely football but we need to be 2 up when we play that well.

If we beat Bpurnemouth we go 5th, I think!
I will be in the scoreboard end to see it.

That would have been a penalty if it was Casemiro's arm.

Every time there is a public vote on anything the great British public always let themselves down.
I have no idea what goes through people's minds, I assume not very much.

Crazy season, if we beat wolves we are well in the race for a top 4 spot.
Even though we have thrown away great opportunities in recent weeks.
Squad looks very thin though even when everyone is fit. The African Nations Cup is going to hurt us badly I fear.

Why the hell does FIFA think it can award a peace prize.
Maybe next year they should add a science prize or award some Olympic dressage gold medals.
What a joke and what bunch of utterly corrupt bastards.
They should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute

I assume Mazroui is in the back 3 and Dalot is at left wingback.
Dorgu and Yoro taken out, both need a confidence boost, and in Yoro's case a rest, but it shows the weakness of our squad when they are still on the bench.

Has to change something at half time if only to show that the first half wasn't close to good enough.
I really want an extra man in midfield but that's not happening.

No point crossing high balls into the box. Either ping it in hard and low or pull back to the edge of the box.

So far this is a worse performance than against Everton.
Thought we had turned a corner but without Cunha and Sesko we have turned another.
