Easily one of the best of our players today and still gets hooked.

Still gets in 90 for France. Just our luck.

Sanson - Douglas - Buendia In my opinion the above should be our starting three in midfield for the rest of the campaign. Most importantly they all fit our style of play. All three want the ball, have great close control, pass well and, most importantly, work very hard and can press with intensity when required. Ramsey and McGinn can then come off the bench to add guile, energy and spark both when leading or chasing a game. Sanson on the right of the three can hustle with Cash and get into those deeper crossing positions he seems to favour while Buendia can operate on the left and cut inside to combine with Coutinho when needed. I'd also look to use McGinn in an advanced position and rely more on Iroegbunam and Chukwuemeka to come in and play instead running Ramsey into the ground or shoehorning McGinn into a role he clearly isn't suited for. However after the substitution of Sanson today and his persistence in using McGinn as a deep lying midfielder I have absolutely no faith in Gerrard to even consider any of this. Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing him out the door at this point because his naivety and reliance on his favourite shiny square pegs in clearly round holes is alarming.

Gerrard needs absolutely slamming for today. Absolutely shocking.

We have been absolutely awful today. Wolves have done nothing to impress me.

Takes off our better CM. Shock horror.

35 year old Moutinho just ran straight past McGinn at goal. This is madness.

Douglas, Sanson, and Buendia are all much more suited to how we play and of course Chukwuemeka and Ramsey on his day are options.

Gerrard wants to shag Ramsey and McGinn. There's no other explanation.

Another player ill-suited to our formation and play style.

Bailey is literally N'Zogbia.

Douglas on for McGinn and Buendia on for Ramsey.

I genuinely cannot believe the persistence of playing McGinn as a 6. Never have I seen a player less suited to a position.

Douglas on for McGinn at HT.

Can we all agree this formation is whack?

Fantastic intervention from Young there.

And yet Sanson will be the first one to be hooked on 60 mins for Traore. Nailed on.

Totally on Gerrard to play McGinn as a 6. Brainless.

He’s much better suited to our style of play.

Unless we play him as a 10 DROP. HIM.

Sanson is so tidy on the ball and IMO exactly the type of player we need in the middle.

Then they’ll be even more determined to keep a clean sheet. We’ll do well to score here today and in a derby no less.

Playing McGinn as a 6 is suicide.

I want to reiterate that I don't think McGinn is a bad player, and I don't want him out of the starting 11 permanently. He has a role to play for sure but he shouldn't be playing 90 minutes every single week in a position and playing style that doesn't suit his game.
