Eze is to weak and gives Mitchell no help and Olise isn’t much better to help Clyne. Would never have started with those two and Zaha together. All it needed was Schlup replaced by Zaha and Matteta left up front. Still time to change it, must say I’m disappointed with our starting 11 with Zaha up front.

Every team we play pass and move, even if they arent a very good team there is effort by their forwards to make runs in behind or down the wing. Our whole forward line never make runs, they all come short to receive a pass rather than burst in behind or down the wing. For me our whole problem are our forwards laziness, lack of intelligence or both. Our forwards and attacking mids need to press harder and earlier not drop off, particularly Olise and Ayew. They just pass out of defence with no resistance. Not one shot on target by both teams in the 1st. half!

Its not that bad its just that we dont look like we have a goal in us . Find a way to create and take chances without a decent striker at the club ad we will have cracked it Anderson was unluckly , just got his feet in a muddle , whats more concerning is his inability to read Watkins movement

To keep this at 1 - 0 we need a lot of luck! No way in a million years that we will score today or in the remaining games in March:

It’s a fair point to make now or before kick off. In PV’s defence our strikers are and have been poor.

Find a way to create and take chances without a decent striker at the club ad we will have cracked it Whilst also working out how to stop the other team scoring, We unfortunately don't do either very well, and more worryingly we don't look fit - so can't exactly rely on hard work and endeavour to bridge the gaps. PV is the head of this sorry shambles, whether it's a coaching or a management issue is unknown, but we don't look motivated.

Don't worry, PV will send on a striker on the 80th minutes to try to get the draw result he wants.
