Palmer with a class PK. We need to be put them aside with a man advantage.

No Sterling to sabotage us. His age plays a part. Tries to overplay at times, but he's been a very bright spot.

That backline is beyond worrying. Aside from Gusto, they are ticking time bombs.

Yep. Every so often, a team pulls off a major update (Wigan, Birmingham, etc).

There's no guarantee United will beat Coventry. Liverpool were supposedly nailed on to reach the semis and look what happened.

Who did we last beat in a FA Cup final, tho? Either way, we'll have to beat one or both of the Manchester sides to lift the trophy.

Liverpool had one foot in the semis a few hours ago. Also, just look at our performances against City this season.

If we get a favourable draw again, we might finally have a chance.

Both sides summed up. United similar to us whilst Liverpool strike whilst the iron is hot.

His exploits with the youth NT are worth noting. Of course, you'd know more about his time prior to joining us to most.

In all fairness, if Sterling wasn't playing (as mentioned above), we'd probably be going into HT with a four goal lead. Poch needs to take him to wherever in the summer.

Till the semis, more like.

What an assist from Palmer. Poch getting saved again. It's still be a dreadful second half from us.

Bingo! He has to go in the summer.

I can't give Sterling any credit, even for that assist. A dire 45 mins from him

Lets hope he can build on this performance.

Life comes at you fast. 😄 If he can improve on his finishing, he will be an asset.

I wrote one thing while thinking of another, so thanks for the correction. What I meant to say was that he's started that many games at Burnley and played for the entirety of the match. That aside, we need to come to terms that "top club" and Chelsea don't go together at this moment in time; just look at half of the players that are regulars. If he manages to hit double figures during his brief spell, there should be no question he deserves a chance, provided we don't spend big on Osimhen, etc. Once again, how can you fail if you're never given a proper chance? Strasbourg are fighting for their lives, yet he's seemingly not good enough, in your opinion. If a player in their mid teens plays 49 games in just over a year and then is called up to the SENIOR Brazilian NT, I'd like to think there's something about him that these two clubs haven't noticed other than his lack of ability.

He joined Forrest when they were in dire need of midfielders, and within weeks of him joining, they brought several other midfielders with much more experience than him. A relegation candidate isn't going to throw a youngster in with no benefit to their own cause. Just look at Fofana's two loan spells this season; he started one league game in Germany while he's already started five games for Burnley in a much harder league. Is he suddenly "good enough" now, or has he just been given a chance to show what he can offer? I really don't know how Santos' career will unfold over the next few years; however, the reasoning you've provided for his lack of game time doesn't suffice. If he had gone to Portugal in the summer, he would have certainly been in a better position than he is now.

For a side fighting relegation in France? I'm sure that isn't the case. More like another stupid transfer decision. Screams "feeder club". If that's his intention, sell us and stick to Strasbourg.

Just look at the situation with Santos. He joined a club our owners OWN and still isn't playing. With every passing day, I wish for the club to be sold.

The fact that this fee was part of the loan deal to begin with says everything. Can this club not send players to teams where they are very likely to play?

Yeah. Win that, and we go up to 8th. Hopefully, weekend results go our way as well.

Always got to make things harder for ourselves. Just look at Cucu's "determination" gift Newcastle some hope. That aside, we close the gap to tenth place (actually sad to think about). Mudryk done enough to start on Sunday?

That's the ability Mudryk possess. Lighting strikes for him against Newcastle. Relived Mr Greedy hasn't cost us more points this season.
