That miss was something else

30 year old premier league flop bertrand traore that is.

As expected.

Sunderland coming right back into it.

Grealish hitting the post.

Garner almost scoring.

Barry's miss.

Its all gonna bite us on the arse.

Strikers have let us down terribly this season.

So Beto for Barry at half time?

Our midfield is shite.

Just gets waltzed through time and time again.

Getting absolutely gobbled up.

No denying he is a tidy, active player but he just gets completely gobbled up in this league.

He seems to be getting shorter and skinnier by the week. Compare him to the Ivan Drago’s in the Arsenal midfield - only one way this league is going and he’s not it. Needs to go to La Liga; he’d look lovely in a Betis shirt.

Frustrating should be 2 possibly 3 up.

They've invested in Barry so the club will have to continue to develop him. We need two strikers, one in Jan and another to replace Beto next summer.

He'll have to hook Barry sadly because of the yellow.

Röhl and Alcaraz for KDH and Jake for me.

Get Gana rb.

Barry irritates me. KDH awful. Both making Grealishs job impossible.

This is another game that should be wrapped up already given our dominance in the first half hour that we will almost 100% fuck around into a draw or worse if we don’t get our shit together and make early changes, which we all know we won’t do.

Never been this pissed off being 1-0 up.

Feels like Grealish and Ndiaye have been going more central than in recent matches where they've hugged the touchline and it has made a big difference

It’s a poor midfield

Such a shame that missed chance, aside from heap pressure on us in general it could've been finally a bit of a lift off for Barry and some confidence going forward.

Thought he played ok in spells, but his link up/hold up play was a little bit of a mixed bag. Unfortunately though, nobody is going to look past the miss and with the yellow card he picked up I'd be surprised if he comes out for the second half.

We were clinging on a bit there toward the end, and it could've given us a little more comfortable feeling.

Hopefully a reset at HT because the first 30 minutes was perfect.

It has absolutely knocked all the momentum out of us
Awful miss

Need a strong Moyes performance at half time.

Praise for the first 20

Tell them to quiet the crowd again etc hold it up be brave

Shame for Barry as he's been decent even if his decision making is very hit and miss, but man not scoring that chance was criminal.

Been good enough to stay on though, really stepped up to the physical battle today which is something I've criticised him for not doing previously. Hopefully he bags so that miss doesn't linger over him.

KDH or Poosberry-Hall as I might call him and join in with the @brap2 fun has been utterly wank. I don't think Moyes wants the rawness of Barry and Alcaraz up top together but KDH has been embarrassingly bad.

If Moyes isn't willing to bring on Alcaraz move Grealish central, Ndaiye left and bring Dibling on.

Whatever he does he needs to do it at half time as KDH shouldn't be on this pitch.
