    Why are we playing a injured keeper!

    Blackman is obviously injured and can't even keep the ball on the field so what on earth are we doing playing him when you can see it affects the way we play.

    Because Chelsea insist or they recall him. That would also leave us with no reserve keeper.

    Blackman also became a Father last night, wonder how tired he was playing tonight? Not his fault if Warne plays him.

    Don't care what Chelsea think we have to do what is right for us. I would rather play Johannson and Price as back up than somebody that can hardly walk and kick a ball straight.

    Yes your right it's not Blackman fault it's entirely on Paul Warne.

    Been blessed with stoppers in my lifetime at Rufc but this bloke is on a par with Steve cherry. Maybe harsh but no improvement.

    He maybe injured but you could put Douglas Bader in the net if play was down the other end of the pitch.

    Our system though invites pressure and eventually statistics kick in and we concede a goal

    Why would Chelsea insist we played their player while he was injured? It makes no sense. I'd have thought they'd insist he didn't play if he wasn't fit.

    I would guess most of our players are carrying some sort of injury. We need to ease back on the over training and actually concentrate on some basic footy skills. Shooting at goal could be a good start

    It might not be Chelsea insisting he plays, it might be that they are paying all his wages and don’t pay if he doesn’t play.

    So it might just be cost saving on our part

    Couldn't agree more - seen him play the last 5 matches, injured /tired /being forced to play by Chelsea it doesn't matter, he just looks like he dont wanna be here his body language is telling me he dont give a ****!
