[Lawrence]

Anyone else fed up of Stevens. He has to get off the pitch.

He’s playing out of position, I said it last week but I got shot down, who do you want at wingback Lowe or Stevens?

 

[FriethBlade]

Rather have sharp on the pitch, Brewster needs to come off. If your not getting played the ball, you’ve got to hunt for it. He’s doing nothing to help himself.

Touch map says Brewster has touched the ball 5 times in 50 mins !!! Next lowest is 20 according to Sky

 

[Chris the Blade]

This team is no longer good enough. Need a clear out. If that means going down and starting again then so be it

 

[Suomi_Blade]

Stevens isnt a central defender, good wingback but sadly the experiment of central defence isnt working for him.

I really feel for Brewster, we are about as creative as Trump's excuses for losing - not very! How can Brewster score a goal, or even have a shot on target, if no one is crossing or passing the ball into him.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Our only hope of survival is Mousset coming back and making an impact

 

[JPSharpy93]

f me this is painful to watch

 

[Tony Kenworthy]

Crying out for Burke, this. Not been great but we're still in it.

 

[ucandomagic]

Stevens and Egan have no brain, Norwood has no legs and Brewster has no balls.

The first 3 are forgivable.

Get brewster off NOW

 

[SUFCinks]

How is sitting with 10 behind the ball and letting chelsea tap it around going to win us the game. I absolutely despair. Finally get the ball and cant wait to smash it into row z. Awful!

 

[YES Blade]

Ramsdale again! Why can’t he keep hold of the ball or at least not palm it into a dangerous area ffs!

 

[YoungBlade31]

He’s playing out of position, I said it last week but I got shot down, who do you want at wingback Lowe or Stevens?

Osborn.

[originaltrueblade]

Get Brewster off sorry but not on the pace not in the game strolling around not looking for the ball....

 

[HeySethUTB]

What the fuck was rammers doing palming it out on a plate. Lucky boy.

 

[Nah den]

That it isn’t a plan to hoof. It clearly is.

We have no other option. We can't play it through them. They are pinning us back when we are in possession. If the plan all along was to hoof it why didn't we start with McBurnie? It's not a plan, it's a consequence.

 

[Dutch Blade]

He might actually be uncapable to catch any kind of balls. First, I thought it was tactic during rainy games, but now I really think he got huge problems with his catching an ball.

Exactly - I fucking hate this. It’s like we think 2-1 is a good result. Cowards

 

[blades78]

17 mins into second half and I think we've had the ball for around 20 seconds.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

And the last 11 games?

 

[Stevo]

Brewster looks like a sulky child

 

[The Bear]

It is easy to blame Ramsdale but it is not easy to play behind this so called defense.

He made a superb save just now.

28 games without a clean sheet

 

[BobblesBlade]

Well zero goal threat from one to another one with zero goal threat.

 

[Dutch Blade]

Please bench Lundstram, he's always taking forever to control the ball.

 

[HeySethUTB]

What did Chris Morgan once say - “He’s either outstanding or He’s standing outside“ ala Brewster.

 

[BobblesBlade]

I’ve heard Brewster wants Liverpool to activate the buy back clause.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

That right there is why we are a DELIBERATE longball team, Berge gets it and has no one within 40 yards of him but tries not to hoof and gives it away

 

[Terry]

I really miss the days of overlapping centre halves

 

[Chris the Blade]

That right there is why we are a DELIBERATE longball team, Berge gets it and has no one within 40 yards of him but tries not to hoof and gives it away

He won't be here next season

Its like watching Chelsea vs Chelsea Pensioners
