half time 0-0

Not a bad 1st half, although Bamford looks out of sorts. Fletch is doing ok in the Assombalonga role, although he hasn’t been offside quite as often as Britt, must try harder.

 

Traore looks dangerous, Ayala playing well too. Clayton with a needless booking, he needs to cut that out of his game. Howson, lively, looks decent today.

Well that was dire .....pulis reminds me of rioch.I like him but how much chewy does he have in them pockets..touch line covered..

I can see why Clayton took the booking, it was needless in this instance because we actually had enough get back quickly, but he's taking it to stop a counter attack. What he needs to do is recognise that, actually, Knockaert wasn't going anywhere at any great speed, so don't bother.

Players like Bamford, Clayton and Braithwaite aren’t helping their chances today. Fletcher is doing what he can with the punts he is getting. He is getting a touch on quite a few long balls. Howson has been great and Traore is a threat. Ayala doing well in defence

downing on braithwaite off.

and fletcher off for assombalonga

Exactly, there was no danger whatsoever, but you could see exactly what Clayton was going to do, before he did it

 

Downing on for Braithwaite

Britt on for Fletcher as well.

Britt for fletch.

How the hell is Bamford staying on the pitch. He has been by far the worst player.

Braithwaite's days must be numbered, unless we plan on playing 2 upfront and him as a second striker I can't see where he fits in, he's completely ineffective in the 3 behind the striker.

Randolph would be a non league goalkeeper if he wasn't so brave, comes close to giving away daft goals all the time before recovering.

Randolph properly wrecked that guy. That could have been nasty.

He should be playing in Bamfords place. Bamford offers absolutely nothing. If it wasn’t because of his season here a few years ago I doubt he’d have so many fans.

Ayala off injured, Fry on
