The Kraken Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Just fuck the fuck off with that lineup. West Ham put out their first team, we put out……that. Ffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Biggest thing with this line up is it means Villa at the weekend becomes a must win really for Ralph to be vindicated. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictiAbNonem Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 I'm not happy with the team selection, but I'd fucking love it if this side could beat West Ham. It'd be better than the first team beating them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddeer Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Ralph must have expected them to put out a severely weakened side - that's the only rational explanation I can think of. Has he been caught with his pants down by Moyes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austsaint Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 24 minutes ago, aintforever said: I don’t get what Ralph is doing, we’ve got fuck all to play for in the League. It’s basically our reserves v their first team. Strange decision Ralph. I know you shouldn't pick out one player, and I know he scored a goal recently, but starting Long seems a crazy decision. If we lose this game decisively Ralph will have given up a lot of th goodwill he has earned in recent times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Without reading the comments thus far on the line up, I can't see them being that positive! Willy is fine, Stephens is fine, but as decent a job as Valery has had to do at CB this season, he is not a frigging CB. Certainly not against a decent team in West Ham when we want to progress to the next round of the cup. If he gets MOTM then fair play and I will retract my comments but I feel like he's going to cost us a goal at some point... hopefully not worse. I can live with the midfield, JWP and Diallo is fine, Djenepo and Smallbone have a lot to prove, but Armstrong and Long in attack? That's pretty damn blunt. I'm not happy that he's taken a winning, in-form team and ripped it apart in a cup competition we should be prioritising. In both previous rounds he's done this and scraped by but personally I think this is a step too far tonight. I hope I'm wrong and we progress but this definitely smacks of us believing we can achieve bigger things in the league. Right, one post left tonight.... I'll save it until after the game when we've won 6 nil and I have to defend myself for looking like a negative tit. 😜 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nta786 Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Ralph- "trust in every player we have. we talk how important everyone is. there is no reason to not give them a chance, they bought us here and think about longy who scored against swansea. so important to give players a chance to show up" "Maybe we have 120 minutes today or a penalty shootout, so long way to go.

Saint Pete Posted 2 March, 2022 Share Posted 2 March, 2022 Just deeply depressing that the FA Cup is now reduced to an opportunity to give some of the boys in the squad who don't play much a run out. Even for a team like us who have only won 1 major trophy in its history. Pretty obvious the lack of respect that Ralph has for the competition that he would contemplate that line up in the 5th round.
