Strike

One observation. Fans here on TC are an antsy bunch calling for movement, tempo etc. I am part of Chelsea groups where they made no mention of slow passing or movement in the entire half and are praising Alonso, Azpi's crossing, complaining about Norwich's low block

Oh wait. Goal

We know what teams will come here and do. We have struggled all season with this. But even in the last few games of the season, there's little improvement in the buildup

RLC is an extra body in the box at this point. Hardly involved in the buildup play

This is better. I wish we were faster from the start. Faster with set pieces, faster with passing, TEMPO.

His weaker foot

Is it me or is the intensity pedestrian for a must win game? This team seriously lacks urgency at the start of games.

The centrebacks rarely pass the ball down the middle. Often go side to side, diagonals. When they pass down the middle they tend to misplace it like Zouma there. Whoever is the centreback target, I hope they are comfortable on the ball and not just a tall, physical player to plug our setpiece weakness.

Mount, Abraham, Barkley, James benched. Fair I think

Is Tomori fit ?

The Akinfenwa interview is one of the best interviews of our times. https://twitter.com/footballdaily/status/1282776771067346954?s=20

All the worries over Kepa's record transfer fee in 2018 were proved right. For a long time I was of the opinion that it is a De-Gea type blip and he will come good eventually. But even in the restart he has been quite shaky and his lack of confidence compounds our average defending

True. Swaps are rare. But post-pandemic we've already seen Pjanic-Arthur swap. Could see more clubs doing swaps this summer

But it does seem like Lampard has earned the respect of the board and will have significant input on transfers. I generally like the players mentioned in the press as 'Lampard signings' too. Few months ago, we were looking at Moussa Dembele in attack but now have got Werner and Ziyech. Big gamble from Lamps to wait for the right player but it seems like it could just pay off^

All our hopes on Leicester and Wolves now

Or we may have to avoid defeat on final day

Wow. I'm shook. Thought you're Swedish and didn't know what cricket is

If City's ban is upheld

Harsh on Ndidi cos its a miskick from Schmeichel that totally surprised him

Nervy ending. Test cricket feels good!

Still 3rd! We are doing a repeat of last year

Solanke is on a hattrick!

Bournemouth you legends!

Added benefit. This keeps the relegation fight alive and leaves West Ham with something to play for when they face United in the penultimate game

Let's wait till this is done. Come on Solanke !
