I hope you guys are well, despite that horrid half.

We seem to be having the same issues mentally. We have been so poor this half and dare I say apart from the scoreline this is the worst I’ve seen us play since Arsenal this season. 
 

Luiz seems checked out for me he’s been so poor at protecting the back line and at times still thinks he has loads of time on the ball. 
 

Mcginn has been poor also he’s been hitting aimless passes that set up their attack. He looks pissed as well and due to his card I’d look at swapping him for Sanson, who would be better suited for this fixture anyway. 
 

Watkins well he’s been poor for a while now.

I think Gerrard has to make tweaks to this formation, we need more out of our midfield and this formation doesn’t really help. 
 

Here’s to a better half of football and hopefully we can pull a result.

Welcome to the site proper! Throwing yourself in to the most dramatic thread straight away, gotta respect the fearlessness.

We haven't yet had St Maximim run clean through our defence yet. That's absolutely bound to happen at some time in this half. Just need to pray that he blasts it over the bar when he does.

Watkins just looks miles off the player from last season, not scoring as much I can accept from season to season but it’s his all round game that’s gone downhill, doesn’t challenge well aerially, struggles to make anything stick into feet, not pressing defenders in the same way. Weird, you really think he’d have kicked on this year.
