Stop blaming the pitch.. we are still a championship team in the Premier league pitch has been rested 3 weeks. If we can't afford proper groundsmen and pay them to look after the pitch professional footballers have to adapt. But we're still a championship team.

Indeed, I did say we would struggle, we look devoid of ideas and generally clueless. This is against a depleted side who are below us.

Raph is having to come deeper to get the ball.

We need holding MF to control things.

It'll probably Llorente for Struijk at HT.
He can play there I read.
