If we could get in to half time only a goal down then Ralph can deploy the false 10, pivot wing backs, triple trapezoidal  midfield 2 covering 8 positions, working against the ball with  on the bus, bring long and Walcott on palace won’t know what’s hit them.

KWP on the right instinctive, purposeful and direct. on the left, muddled, hesitant and ineffective. I understand why he's playing there, Perraud ain't rated by Ralph, and Tino has had a good first half the season, but its annoying seeing KWP talent wasted.

I’d love to know if the raised arm JWP does on his corners is meant to be one of those secret codes every team has on set pieces, because quite frankly his corners are dog shit.

Maybe that is the code, “don’t get excited lads, this one’s gonna be shit too, just get ready for the counter attack”

JWP corner comes to nothing. Again.

maybe, just maybe, one of our players could win a fucking header from one of them.

More than happy to see Redmond float the odd ball across, but Ings scored several goals from JWP corners. Why cant anyone else?

The team Ralph has put out isn’t that bad on paper and should compete but they honestly look like a side our League 1 promotion team could have beaten 5 or 6 nil. I think someone else might get a little run of form out of them without the OCD about playing 4222 which doesn’t this squad and never will. If they are waiting for a takeover to change the manager = relegation. Surely there’s someone that would do the job until the end of the season?

Earlier in the season was better but since first half v Leicester they have been as bad as anything under Pellegrino or Branfoot. He’s burning out Tino, pissing off KWP, Perraud barely used. JWP totally regressed this season, even Romeu out of sorts. 

If the manager is still there on Saturday - season over. This is as bad as what got Pellegrino the sack at the Newcastle game. 

Bet the sheep at SMS don’t raise a murmur.

Why doesn't Ralph set us up differently?

This is offering absolutely nothing and we have yet to see the terrible 2nd half

He tried something different at Liverpool, probably the worst place to do it, but that’s our Ralph, always on the edge 🙄

Yeah I said this was a good team, but persisting with Walker-Peters at LB is madness.

 

Need to play people in their actual positions, if Livramento is better than KWP, then sorry he has sit out, not be shoehorned in.

 

Really don’t see how people think Ralph is stubborn or won’t listen - clearly he lets the players walk all over him, and tries to keep people happy by trying to accommodate players who just don’t fit the team.

Captain steps up.

The state of the boo boys on here. JWP was our best player even before the free kick tonight. Still they're slagging him off all the time. Absolute beauty of a free kick from him. Shame we can't improve some of our negative fans who only seem to want to slag off the players.
