    Spineless shoite

    Botman has to start.

    No quality on the bench.

    Willock is shoite.

    I'm certainly not defending today's performance but, in terms of the bench and our inability to makes changes, what we're seeing is the perfect storm combination of Fatso allowing our commercial revenue to remain in the 80s and PSR throttling us-which is exactly what it was designed to do.

    The stark lack of quality or options on the bench is a direct result of that.

    Summer should change that but I'd expect at least Isak and Tonali to go.

    I think if we can show some frigging intent with quality and quantity signings in the summer they would likely stay for one more season. Listening to Eddie he?s ALREADY saying we won?t be spending big in the summer either. What?s the point then,Let?s just be happy in mid table eh. These players and management have worked wonders but they need some friggin backup from the bench. look at forest,after the penalty points,they?re flying, fresh, motivated, fit, the opposite of us based on today. Arsenal will be well up for Wed night,I just hope WE are!

    I agree i know he is back from a huge injury but surely he had to start today instead of Burn or Schar, no attack options on the bench oh its ok Wilson will be back soon for 30 minutes before another injury and we arnt going to sign anyone until the summer while nearly all our competiters are pathetic, at least get a winger in on loan.

    Willock is massively off the pace, we are still giving away sloppy passes but on another day, Tonali's shot would have went in and Isak's shot would have went in

    Just fine margins today made the difference

    Like any other our player apart from first teamers.
    Just the thing that came to my mind when I saw this line up - exactly the same as previous, what, 5? Or 10 matches?

    We are doing good when things go our away - Saints game was no different, we get our penalty and then the moment of brilliance from Isak. It could well went completely other way. But when things dont click, we have no in-form bench.
    The only time I remember when our subs got an impact it was Wolves away.

    Its double edged sword, though. Howe cant toss line up completely every other week, but playing same way for 2 months in a row is another extreme.
    If it goes like these and we do get europe, it will be same old story with exhausted players

    Teams now know that the best way to beat us is just to attack, and get at our back 4, no pace in the middle of the defence. But we?ve known that for how long! This season could go tits up after wed night or the opposite,not sure which at the minuite. Arsenal will attack us, they have to, and if they score first it?s curtains, think I will give it a miss,not good for the blood pressure!

    I have to agree Willock is utterly rubbish so weak and why haven’t we got rid of him

    2 left footers at the cb not good, Botman looks uncomfortable playing on the right to me like.
