Well isn't that what people are saying. We have had terrible luck with injuries and it's been to key players where we have had no adequate replacement. People haven't moaned too much about Rose, because we have had Hyam and Ostigard and McFazdean. If we lost Allen it probably wouldn't hurt us...

It's been the key players we have lost though. Its who, rather than how many. And the quality of back up we have. Like with Watford, they had millions of pounds of quality on the bench. We are having to play Biamou.

Have been thinking the same thing. One day they are all going to fly in.

Okay. Who? I honestly don't know.

Any other team lost both their first choice strikers?

He stopped the rain once with a stare.

And he refused to be an embryo and just popped straight out the womb fully kitted and in football boots.

He uses steal toe capped boots as slippers to help strengthen his leg muscles and eats crisps without even opening the packets.

Robins said Gyokeres was tired. Not sure what part of that you don't get? He hadn't been playing that much football at Swansea. And as for Biamou, it is obviously manageable. Otherwise he wouldn't be playing.

Not for me, BBR. Saw a lot of people predicting a Scotland win and Scotland themselves were very confident.

Macca, it is being ridiculed because people are saying we ARE going to be in the bottom 3. Like it is set in stone. There doesn't seem to be an ounce of doubt with some. It WILL happen. It's rightly ridiculed.

Looking at his face, you can tell he was a cheeky little monkey as a kid, who would eat lots of his pic and mix before he got to the till to keep the weight down. He also used to trip kids up in school corridors.

I have no idea. I guess it depends how Gyokeres looks in training and how sharp he is. If he looks up for it, I would say Gyokeres, but that is just a guess. I have zero idea what is going on inside the club, same as you don't either.

Yes. But he looked a lot more lively than Gyokeres when Gyokeres came on. He looked like he was running through treacle.

We are all such experts, despite not having a clue as to some players' fitness, not seeing them in training and not having a clue if they are injured.

It is one thing that always brings a bit of a wry grin to my face. A player gets subbed and the fans say the manager is clueless, while not having the slightest idea whether that player who has just been subbed, has a bit of a knock or not, or is carrying an injury, or is just exhausted.

But Robins said Gyokeres was really tired too. He looked so leggy when he came on and way off the pace. Robins got it right.

He hasn't been here 5 mins. Give the bloke a chance.

So many England players out today though. A much depleted squad. Wasn't a surprise and many people predicted it.

Where were we going to get this magical striker from though? They are not ten a penny and are like gold dust. So many teams chasing and seeking out a good goalscorer to add to their firepower. Where were we going to magic one up from? Good ones cost money and are not given up easily by clubs.
