Disappointing to see no Anthony Gordon on bench, never mind in the starting eleven today. Odd call.

Realistically we don't have the luxury of just chopping Siggy, Walcott and Schneiderlin out of the team, due to the injuries to Gbamin and Gomes. They will have to play some games. No point getting angry about it.

I'll be watching Sigurdsson closely today and if he shows anything but 100% commitment to the cause...........................well, I don't know what I'll do.

Go to Finch farm on Monday and give Marcel some advice?

 

[TeaToffee]

Can someone please put the real team up... Siggy as captain lol lollol

 

[OzyToffee]

Dont see Carlo with the attitude of prove yourself or your gone type mentality it isn't his style, more like rotation. Something tells me he has sussed this lot and made his decisions.

 

[DanEFC92]

Certain players can put in the worst, smelliest performance and will be straight back in the team the next week.

Sick of it, mate.

 

[Furey1878]

Hope the presence of Sigurdsson, Walcott and Keane is some sort of last chance Carlo has handed them rather than actual faith in their abilities.

Hmmm disappointing team, but second half, Kean for Walcott and Delph for Sigurdsson, will improve it. Injuries have tied the managers hands here, really.

 

[PDAWG]

Let’s face it, he couldn’t drop everyone could he. Will just have to work with what we have until players return or sign.

He's dropped 2 players

Wow, huge statement to the side

Pickford

Digne
Holgate
Mina
Coleman

Richarlison
Davies
Delph
Bernard
Sidibe

Calvert-Lewin


Bernard as a number 10, Richarlison left wing, Sidibe right, Davies/Delph holding.

Could have been done. Realistically, you could only drop two of them and retain a 4-4-2.

This is like their 9th last chance. Like pissing cats.

Surely better than having 2 DMs on the bench

Tbf new regime and that

Not playing down your frustrations though I would happily shoot all three of them out of a cannon.

Yep Sigurdsson in particular is completely done at this point, akin to how Silva should have been sacked despite his pointless run-in results at the back end of the season.

It doesn't matter if he plays 'well' now - I'll acknowledge he has if he does, but he should still be bombed out of the club at the earliest opportunity. He's proven beyond doubt that he can't be relied on.
