RLC has been excellent so far. Can understand the hype about him.

His passing has been atrocious. The pitch doesn't help that but he really isn't playing as well as he could.

What is the score and how are we playing?

1-0 Arsenal. The pitch is killing a lot of our normal play and our defence really isn't as solid as it should be. Boga doing well and Feruz working hard with balls being pinged into him. Got better towards the end of the half but the players need to get into the game.

The moment I saw Christensen was starting at full-back I thought to myself: "Well this competition was nice while it lasted!".

He is not Ivanovic. He cannot just magically adapt to RB with such ease after being such a solid CB for most of this campaign. He has zero pace and no attack prowess. Shambles of a line-up.

Boga has also been started in a slightly too advanced position while a change should have already been made seeing Kiwomya either go out left or be replaced altogether (although him not seeing the ball is more down to the rest of the team.)

Christensen played whole campaign on a right side.

Beeney, Pappoe and Wright are just a disgrace of our academy. They can't even pass a ball to the next player.

The pitch is not the best but RLC has more than held is own and has looked to me our best player. Eurosport were complimenting his game as well.

I'LL REPHRASE TO AVOID LOOKING LIKE A PLEB! I meant at reserve/youth level Christensen had typically been playing at centre-back beside Davey when Pappoe was injured and was most comfortable there. It's his natural position in the middle.

I believe he's only playing on the right because there's "no other options" since Kane is obviously out on loan now, but I'm sure any other full back in the squad would be doing a better job there with Chris slid into the centre where he's a rock.

HT 1-0 Arsenal

RLC, Davey have played well. Some poor decision making and confusion between defenders been our downfall so far. Feruz is also struggling, he is having too drop deep and hold the ball up which is not his game.
Shame about Nditi getting injured, but hunte coming on should giev us more balance going forward.

I'm still not sure about Kiwomya on the right. Seems like he's been shifted there because he's fast, I think he's similar to Feruz and should be played central, though obviously that would mean one of Feruz/Kiwomya on the bench.

Having said that this is also about development and him playing wide will help him with on the bal work, movement etc.

Should I feel confident or not?
