    Ajayi

    Against Boro, Ajayi played for 90 minutes, had 60 touches, completed 79% of his 38 passes, blocked one shot, made five clearances, had six tackles and made one interception. The Nigerian international has picked up from where he left off last season, forcing his way into the starting eleven on merit and becoming un-droppable.

    Really pleased for Ajayi, he's a strong athlete and alongside O'shea they made a solid pairing. Lets hope he can keep it up now.

    That's always the problem with Semi, if he can keep it UP.

    Both were excellent yesterday! Furlong and Townsend though we’re crap!

    I honestly don’t think centre back is the issue. The full backs and the centre mids are poor and make mistakes, along with not knowing where to position themselves.

    I find it hard to believe there isn’t a kid that can do better than Furlong. I’ve never seen a player with less composure with his level of experience.

    Agree with all of this.

    Many were saying the same at the match - TGH for Furlong! Don’t think Bruce rates him but does not surprise me when he rates Grant up front - Phillips and Livermore! Won’t be long before Reach plays!

    I actually think Reach is a decent back up because of his versatility.

    He can play anywhere down the left hand side and in midfield. We need 7 subs, 5 can come on. I think he's fine as a back up player.

    Bilic played two academy players ahead of him. Ferguson and O’Shea. I’d rather TGH there but Ingram also can’t be any worse.

    He’s more of a liability than anyone in the team IMO. Gave the ball away for their goal and in the last minute where they launched a last attack. Giles had him on toast all game.

    You can tolerate the odd mistake but when it comes from inability, he won’t cut the errors out.

    After tolerating him all of last season, I did think it was a priority position for us bring someone in. You absolutely right to call him a liability, how much of a coincidence is it the player he was up against was Man of the Match?

    Surely the decision makers at the club can see what we're seeing?
