Rushworth 4, worst game for us.
MVE 5, looked shaky
Thomas 7
Pinnock 7
Dasilva 6
Grimes 4, slow in his passing. Got in the way of others at times.
Yirenkyi 6, his inexperience shows at times.
Rudoni 8
Sakamoto 6
BTA, 8 for effort and running. 4 for quality.
Cherif 6

Subs
Awoniyi 4
Hamer 4
Mason-Clark 6
Onyeka 6
KKH 4
 
Rushworth 4 - cost us the game tbh, I got slated for criticising him last week, so expect a backlash for this

MvE 5 - just doesn't give me any confidence at the moment, needed to be stronger for the 2nd

Thomas - 7 pretty steady and solid

Pinnock - 8 good tonight, air of confidence when he plays. Despite 3 goals against, none down to him really or Thomas

Da Silva - 6 outdone for pace, but comfortable on the ball

Grimes - 6 I thought he was pretty solid tonight

Yirenkyi 5.5 Early yellow, means he is on the back foot

BTA - 6.5 limited in ability at this level, but is a great reader of the game, involved in the goal, reads the game well and is fully fit

Rudoni - 7 not as good as last week, but still good. PL level, no doubt about it

Sakamoto 6.5 good first half, but less impact in 2nd half

Cherif 7 - a handful, first choice striker at the moment

Subs
Hamer 6 - one great crossfield ball, but then gave it away too much

EMC 7 - one of the big positives, looked like a proper quality player again

Onyeka 5 - puts himself about, but just not good enough on the ball

Awonyi 5 - ineffective, runs incredibly awkwardly. Should have got his head on EMCs cross

KHH N/A. Odd sub, should have brought Simms on at this stage
I think the KKH sub was to try and improve our shape from the first set of subs, also to give him some minutes as Van Ewijk needs some competition
 
I feel he'll do something good, win the ball well or something, but then give it away cheaply, often because he thinks he's more time than he has. His pass to Grimes just before his booking case in point.
If you look at our goal he drives forward and picks a good pass. Just needs to polish his game a bit. But I don’t think we have anyone else to do that

It was his one good bit of play, but that is meat and drink to a central midfielder, every single one of our central midfielders can do that.

Pinnock and Thomas 7.5 - both proving to be a brilliant partnership in these past few games.
MVE 6 albeit shaky, he doesn’t half get you out of tricky situations with his pace and athleticism. JDS showing consistency against another difficult opponent in kudos. Signs tonight that we’re not far off at all, need to take advantage of these home games and kick on. Proud of the boys tonight. Rudi a 7 as was BTA and saka for their hard work and ability to try and get us up the pitch. Top of the pitch Cherif 6 for such a young lad is unfazed and will get better. Subs so poor, barring Onyeka who gives you those legs in there.

I think he'll be a top player, but he's also a 20 year-old kid making a huge step up in the quality of the league he's playing in. Sometimes it shows.

Tactics all wrong. Why does Lampard persist with the same shite? His stubbornness will see him out of a job by Christmas.
 
Rushworth 2
Grimes 3 - what does he do well ?
MVe 4

Those were let downs.

Cheriff - 7
Rudoni 8

Cba with rest
 
Rushworth 2 awful for two goals especially the 3rd.
MVE 2 what a pussy really piss poor season
Jay 5 worst game could of been better in lead up to first goal
Pinnock 7 solid enough
Thomas 7 solid enough
Grimes 2 too slow and also at fault for first.
Yirenki 5 gets a 3 extra points for his drive for our goal needs to do it more but defensively very poor Maddison had too much space all night
Saka 4 not good enough to start in premier league especially away from home.
Rudoni 7 worked hard got a goal but needs to release it a bit quicker
BTA 1 gets a 1 for his running he is absolute dog shit when he gets the ball all he does is run into players then fall down throwing his arms in the air don't want him anywhere near the team.No wonder 2 player have gone mardie watching this twat take there place.
Cherif 6 only young worked hard but struggled against there CBs.
Subs
Hamer 0 pointless signing so far
KKH 2 strange sub to bring on
Awonyi 0 what a donkey Simms must be fucking fuming.
Onyeka 5 got stuck in
Clark 2 good cross

Frank Lampard 2 think he needs to do more with subs as its always like for like and struggles with plan B.
Want to see the new lads on Saturday as I think some need dropping but he won't change it unfortunately.

Clueless

Clueless and embarrassing, especially off the back of a 4-1 win against a team who were a win off the top 4.
His insistence with starting Grimes, Thomas Asante and Milan - who most people with functioning eyes can see are nowhere near the level - will be his downfall. Call that clueless all you want; it's a fact.

And yet we’re still outside the relegation zone and a win on Saturday would see us comfortably midtable. We were obviously one of the favourites to be relegated - we’re unlikely to sack him even if we do go down.

Said it before, the rhetoric is just like our first season back in the championship.
Hopefully plenty of people end up with egg on their faces like they did then.
 
A lot of the posters are clearly older than me, I’ve got no idea how they coped the last time we were here.
Finishing 17th would be a great achievement and outperforming realistic expectations
Teams that finish 17th lose more games than they win and more than they draw
So you don’t lose your shit when we lose away at a side that has spent £300mn
That’s how you cope!
