Making hard work of this , picking up knocks along the way. Two clattered early in return for a yellow , and Max getting injured accidentally. Thought we would have a better return . Great disallowed goal from Marmoush, excellent finish

Marmoush clearly has a fair bit of technique about him but fuck me does he play like a schoolboy sometimes. Hard to tell if he's capable of making that leap to elite or not. He's got a lot technically going for him but the brain of a retard.

I'll be honest, couldn't careless if we won 10 nil. We'll go through playing gash, as long we win then that all it matters at this stage. Next Premier league game is more important.

We are terrible to watch.

Either we are very difficult to break, or the levels of football have gone to shit. Incredible, we are still on all four fronts with the constant shower of shite we show.

So much talent on that pitch. These fuckers really need to start bucking their ideas up and realising it.

I know I will be seen in the pep licking faction, but it's a general impression of the enshittification of modern football. Where have all the characters gone who would grab a game by the bollocks? It's not just us, it's football wide. The game gone too professional for its own good?

Nothing to do withit. Football is about winning. I don't remember trying to please the old boys on the touchline when I played. We played to win.

If you didn't, you are in the minority

Yep, it's a results business. But fuck me, we need to be expecting a little more from a billion pound industry to provide us with some entertainment. The history books are rightly what matters, but make us feel something along the way! I refuse to lay the blame at pep and entirely on the players, they're the ones who make things happen. They're supposed to be artists, fucking create something!

Should be 3 with an incorrect offside but honestly one of the most boring games I’ve ever watched. My kid fell asleep and I didn’t bother waking her up.
Tracking back is overrated.

We’ll lose supporters, kids don’t want to watch that tripe. I’d rather watch set piece Arsenal than that fuking drivel
