Just imagine this team but with O'Hare instead of Allen

Decent that. Palmer, Cuffy, Gyo all very good. Defence looks solid. Lose 1.0.

Gus seems to be a bit more advanced tonight, or him and Allen keep switching

Viks such a handful but needs to convert

Absolute joke we've not scored 1 at least.

They look average, we look great up until the final ball.

Vik, that's the reason he isn't a Prem striker. The amount of balls hit at the keepers midriff is a joke. Has to be looking to place either side of the keeper, every keeper knows if they stay big it'll come right at them.

BNC looking good, as is Palmer. They're there for the taking if we can find that killer finish

Weve been ok and have created some chances but we don’t have a o hare type to carry the ball and press at the back - it has a bit of an end of season feel somehow also the crowd seem a bit flat. Gyokeres needs a goal.

Mcfazdean solves a lot of problems for us defensively and Bidwell also means you’ve got a stable line but it’s still a struggle to get goals - interesting how the second half goes

If maguire doesn’t feature in what is essentially a dead rubber for us it’s another strange signing

Some good performances so far tonight. Norton-Cuffy, Eccles, Palmer and Vik has looked a menace.

Shows we can compete with the top sides in this division. Just a bit of sharpness around the box that's been lacking.

Eccles has done ok but all the work is coming from Hamer. His commitment is amazing.

Good half, probably Palmers best half of football for us. We look so solid in midfield and at the back.

Gyokeres finishing has been awful though.

Awfuls maybe a bit harsh. That one which ricochet off him, their keeper was out to edge of box. Needs to fluke one and he’ll get on a run. He’s tearing them to sheds

Faultless so far...
Few goals to back up our dominance and it'll have been a good evening.

I didn't want us to sell him but let's be honest he doesn't look like a Premier League player at the moment. But i think it's just his confidence has gone.

I think it was slim pickings in the Jan window and we took him to have a look at him/emergency backup.

The first one wasn't an easy chance either, keeper did really well both times

Eccles just needs to keep calm and let his class show. When he does that, he's an asset.

Pretty much that. Or bring a 13 year old keeper on for the last ten as it was a few weeks back.

Can’t wait for his first touch though. Don’t know if he’s shit or not until then.

It’s all very well moaning about Gyokeres but without him tonight we would even have created any real chances - he gets into one one ones more than any striker and creates down the flanks as well

I think there needs to be a clear differentiation.

We do tend to say on here with new players, that a player IS shit, rather than he HAS been shit so far.

I think we do need to give players a chance to bed in and not be so dismissive. We seem to make concrete, definitive conclusions on players.

I think to say that so far a player has been poor is fine. To completely write them off after a handful of games is a bit OTT I feel.

Norton-Cuffy has been very good tonight.

Judging by that "si-si-si-si-sixth yellow" remark a second ago, I am starting to worry about him. Heh, well, not starting lol.

Went a while without a goal, i think it might have been after he got taken out in that game at Blackburn. He'll score again soon i've no doubt
