Henderson should start against Italy and if he plays well, the shirt should be his for the Euros

Probably right but since we’re (probably) not going down, I’d push the boat out and try to lay the foundation for a more possession based game going forward. A pipe dream, I know.

Could put Matty Longstaff next to Bentaleb with Sean Longstaff as the 10. Matty could transform into the Ginger Kante.

Aye, a real genius. Taking two seasons, two managers and a £4 million striker to get out of that shit league.

I'd honestly put Almiron through the middle if he wasn't so one-footed. It would require an entire change of approach that our knacker gaffer isn't capable of putting together though, right from the tactics to the coaching. Honestly, if we stay up (and I think the sides below us will struggle to put wins together tbf), they should really be shaking Bruce's hand for having things not be a total shitshow, retaining some of the morale from Rafa and kindly telling him to fuck off and employ a manager who can knit an £80 million front line, a defence that knows each other well and two bright young midfield talents into a team that doesn't resemble a load of hungover Sunday league shithouses.

Fury should slip some small weights into his gloves. One hit with them and Wilder will be on the first train to KO-Town.

I like how they tried to maintain it for 6 month but the pressure of not being completely incompetent is too much to bear for our poor refs.

He’s playing his way back into Inter Milan’s team, alright.

We’ve entered the phase where we tell Schar to do it himself, I see.

just a general laugh at how little that front three compliment each other. It’s like someone put Liverpool’s front three in a cloning machine but turned it off halfway through.

Tried it against Arsenal and got pumped even further so he’ll never try it again. The fact that we’d clearly never trained with 4 at the back or put any thought in how we’d play when we went to it is irrelevant.

I think most people with some sense can see that Joelinton needs someone within 5 yards of him at all times, at the very least. The longer he has the ball, the more panicked he becomes. He hasn’t got a clue.

That string of passes Palace just sitting back and waiting for one of the switches to go flying out of play

Quite an interesting approach to defending set-pieces, here. Choosing to just not do so and let the keeper sort it out.

Give into temptation. Every Joelinton pass has been a yard underhit.

I’m going to start that Succession rather than watch the two worst footballing sides in the league go at it tbh.

I think it’s Nigel De Jong’s face. He’s nearly at Gary Coleman levels of quizzical.

I’m sure Simeone and co will be intimidated by a bit of a karaoke and silence for 75 minutes while they stifle the game.

Wish I could put my finger on why this is so funny to me.

To be fair, our stats, at least in an attacking sense, are the worst in the league so it's even more astounding that we still have a decent buffer from the bottom 3. I watch our every game and I still can't really wrap my head around this season.

I would like to add the caveat that I assumed they’d actually prepared a Plan B in training. Because they ran about like knackers once he changed it, nobody had a clue.

What has to happen to make this cabbage headed imbecile take off one of these centre halves when chasing a game?!

We never get anything down there (other than a hiding) and I can’t see it changing today.

Last I heard, Dubravka's contract made him the highest earner. But surely Rose is up there now? Especially if we're paying his wages.
