Thought we were unlucky yesterday. If that Raphinha shot had gone in rather than hitting the post, it could have been quite different. I also feel that if one of our players had led with an arm into Fabianski’s face they’d almost certainly have been sent off.

Positives from the game were that Rodrigo played well and Shack and Cresswell both made strong cases for further involvement. Dallas was marginally better than previously this season. Unfortunately Roberts did little to strengthen his case, and it would probably have been better for Summerville to be brought on for Raphinha instead, as he showed some promise when he eventually came on.

Looking forward to next weekend, I’m guessing Bielsa will be trying to come up with a plan to shackle Ismailia Sarr. He’s a bit tricky and certainly rapid, and would seem to be their greatest threat. Definitely feels like a must win game.

Cluey If we lose, Bielsa should go. His position would be untenable.

Really George, untenable! I think the Arsenal manager job was that last year, have some faith, too many injuries simples.

I agree that I do not think he should go but I would like to see some positive tweaking for Watford. Not a Plan B as that would be far too radical, and far too optimistic. I would however point out that other teams have injuries but other teams (bought in the summer) have better benches. I really think that now is the time to try young blood as what can they do worse?
