Sadly this club has become the "cult of Wilf" where he is expected to save every situation and every game. Not possible, it's a team game and the sooner we get back to that the better.

If Ayew is ever a 10 goal a season striker in this league then I'm probably an 11 goal striker in this league and I haven't played for a few years

Benteke and Ayew are not being used correctly

Both those do not work under Roy system.

Remember this happened to Benteke before then Sam came in and changed attacking focus which got Benteke firing again some players just don't adapt to other style it proved this when he was at Liverpool.

Ayew is more of attacking midfield or just behind striker he can't play the chasing around closing down game thats defensive forwards game like shane long who does great at it but hardly scores

It's all just getting boring and repetitive now.

Hodgson starts the same XI every match so the opposition know exactly what's coming and can prepare for it easily. Never makes a sub until it's too late to save the game.

For all the moaning about our lack of options, none of them ever get a chance. Sorloth gets slated on here but he's barely had a sniff. He's made 15 appearances for us in the league from a possible 29 games but only played 521 minutes. So on average he gets half an hour every second game to impress and people wonder why he looks short of confidence and form when he does play!

Roy continues to persevere with this Zaha and Townsend up front idea despite it very obviously removing all our width and nullifying any aerial threat that we might have.

He'll say after the game that you can't legislate for wonder goals but the brutal reality is that we've been comprehensively outplayed in consecutive games by teams that we should be aiming to beat. Even our dominance over Burnley was tainted for me by our utter lack of a cutting edge.

Ultimately in this league if you rest on your laurels and don't continue to invest then you get left behind and that appears to be what's happened, with Roy already hinting that there's no money for January, with us seemingly content to regurgitate the fact that we spent money 2 years ago.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

oh yeah, i did forget that, lol

a rich man is only a poor man with an obscene amount of money

I totally agree with this,we scored from a set piece.

Sørloths height could've been an option.

Hodgson can't have long left surely.
