pre season prediction was to finish bottom with only one win, managed a bit more than that and got a C-

Can't actually comprehend the above.

Personally I think Ayew offers more to the team than Kodjia, his lack of work is a complete myth where Kodjia is truly lazy without the ball at his feet. Ayew creates for others too, works well with his full backs when wide, Kodjia doesn't. I like Kodjia and think he is a good player but not one we will miss as I think we will actually look more balanced and play better without him

So you didn't see him run the length of the field to make a last ditch challenge to prevent them from possibly scoring?

sssh it never happened, I missed it too, despite the challenge being closer than the penalty handball which I saw as clear as day

I think we will find out if the Gabby experiment has worked now!

We will need him these next few games, if only from the bench.

The day we 'need' Flabby I stop needing to find a live visual format to watch a game. Would rather we played with 10 if honesty (and GnT) were allowed

Will miss him less that we will Ayew

All keepers have those mistakes in them, indeed all players do its just a keeper mistake = goals.

Bunn made a mistake on Thursday on only his first shot at him, smacks of concentration issue.

This is one of the fee things I don't agree with Bruce on, he should still be in the side over Bunn in my view.

I think a January exit is pretty likely now sadly.

It's where I am as well, I think Gollini is our best keeper and will go on to be superb, unfortunatey not at VP

Despite his goal I am struggling to see why anyone picked Kodjia I thought he was shocking, I keep seeing people wanting to play him central, yet he made very few runs into space and was easy for them to mark. So much so that they changed tactic to allow the bigger centre half to move forward and challenge Jedinak in the air. 

McCormack came on and hit a superb cross in and our CF was jogging onto the penalty spot. 

Adomah broke and we had no-one in the box

Ayew 1st half won the ball three times and only saw his back! Never offering to come short giving a different option.

The blood boils... guaranteed 3 points spunked.

 

It looks that way and live it looked even worse, I was sat dead in line on the Trinity side. However, the still picture doesn't show that Green was already starting to move right anticipating the pass. When Kodjia shoots it is his trailing left arm / should side that makes the save. 

Should he pass most certainly, is it a guaranteed goal. I don't think so.

Everyone's going for these new fangled 4K UHD things at the moment. Except me.

I got a 49" Samsung 2015 model from Amazon warehouse for £308.00 and it's **** great. Good sound, good picture, plays every file I know via the USB too.

 

Oh and hardly anyone is broadcasting in 4k yet, could be the latest fad after 3D...

We've got 4 Samsung's and they are all very good from old 32" HD ready through to a SMART 50" that cost around £650 last year. As Rob says the USB and file playing is superb. I love the ease of connection from my phone too (also Samsung)

He did well defensively tonight, nothing going forward though.

People don't realise - not saying you personally - how much Ayew helps in that aspect of our play. Kodjia tonight just didn't help enough and when JA did get forward Kodjia ignored him

Won more headers tonight than the defence.Too old too train as a CD?

Not at all, he could even play sweeper behind Chester and Elphick, sticking Bacuna and Amavi as proper wing backs.... hmm 

Look how easy that goal tonight would be stopped if Jedi could stay central with confidence, so playing a 3 (especially away from home) with Bacuna either Westwood / Tish as they can do the running for Jedi and let him concentrate on staying in front of the two CBs.

I want to see his return asap alongside Jedi and either Westwood / Tish as they can do the running for Jedi and let him concentrate on staying in front of the two CBs. Look how easy that goal tonight would be stopped if he could stay central with confidence

Ayew's gotta win it single handed routine seems to have rubbed off on him.It was like they were having a competition tonight.

Watch him closely and he beats a man and then goes back to do it again far far too often.

And like the poorest of motions it was wet, smelly and random in accuracy

Just needs to get his fitness up and he'll be banging them in!

And nine months later there will be yet another little Gabby somewhere. 

I take it you really didn't actually mean on a football pitch

Not his fault he is playing wide left but at least he could try to help out and bring Amavi into the game, three times tonight Amavi was clear and he insisted on trying to beat his man again, lost it and put them both out of position. 

Looks OK in a 3 with Jedi, looks lost in a 2 with just about anyone these days, who changed that tonight??? 

For me I now want to see Jedi as a pure holding CM with both Westwood and Bacuna ahead of him nicking balls and doing the energetic stuff

Ffa nothing from objand Thompson has only returned  punt so far

With Stafford getting over 70and my super decision to cut Flacco I think that's me done for season
