Wilson is one of the best I have seen at using his body to win the ball and give himself space, especially when you consider that he's almost always outsized by the defender.

First SMB Coward's 11?

Lascelles is rubbish, just so stupid making a 'challenge' like that so early in a game.

Calvert-Lewin must be one of the least likeabke players in the league.

Only a few minutes until we find out if we've finally figured out how to dust ourselves down. Anyone else as excited as I am?

How is Hendrick constantly getting a game? Insanity. Shelvey is highly questionable as well, but he at least is occasionally capable of something good, Hendrick, not so much.

And so it continues.

When you have a look at his face it's fair to say that as a player it's likely he never cowardly turned away from an inbound shot.

Lampard gets 7 points from the last 6 games, and gets sacked. Bruce gets 1 point from the last 6 and shits directly into the eyes of supporters, and gets confirmation he's here for the season.

Fill out the team sheet, so we'll all properly aware of your hierarchy of cowardice.

36! Fucking hell who let this nipper into the adults section!?

Or they're happy to blow smoke up the arses of the 'big' clubs that are performing and therefore have the largest number of casual fans.

That's a bit excessive to be honest, it's only in the final three thirds where he needs to improve.

Lascelles sorta maybe trying to defend Bruce by saying that "when you try to attack that's when they hurt you... back to the drawing board and re-group" Alan Shearer is right that there was no change in attitude and application even though there may have been a change in formation.

It absolutely is the worst bit, but it's wholly necessary given the current state of the club.

The divine Jeff Hendrick readying himself to come on as our saviour

Regardless of what the football is like a manager who has been at a club for more than 50 games can't make a comment like that without it widely being considered farcical.

Good cross and tracking back from Carroll, but have to wonder how long he will last if he needs to cover anywhere near that amount of ground.

Excessive force Polding, every day.

He's not exactly absolving him by suggesting that anyone working under Ashley is not the root cause of the overall problem. That said Bruce is a root cause to different problem, so even with the other constraints at the club he has to be held responsible for the football being as terrible as it consistently is since his arrival.

Fucking hell if it was Sherwood that would be terrible.

I cut my toe nails whilst "watching". Much more interesting than the game.

Can somone please update the thread title to "Wilder's Winstreak Wonders"... Thanks Steve.
