Really disappointed by Shoretire today - by far our worst player. But he is young, he will improve.
Speaking of which, he's just scored a cracking goal to make it 1-1.Is that Fernandez? Missing the game.
Everyone has him on toast. Silky player but he can't run unfortunately.
He heard all of us criticizing him Great goalSpeaking of which, he's just scored a cracking goal to make it 1-1.
He was good no? He was everywhere, involved in everything good we did. His ball got the Chelsea player Brooking sent off. Just missing the final final ball.Really disappointed by Shoretire today - by far our worst player. But he is young, he will improve.
That's a very weird take, honestly.Really disappointed by Shoretire today - by far our worst player. But he is young, he will improve.

He looks like an attacking midfielder, to be honest.Fernandez's defending has to improve, he looks very elegant on the ball and is clearly talented but I don't think he would do well as a LB in senior game.
I think he would work very well in a Van Gaal style 3-5-2.He looks like an attacking midfielder, to be honest.
Ha typical.Speaking of which, he's just scored a cracking goal to make it 1-1.
Don't know whether to read too much into this but he has been training with the first team this week so maybe in contention for a spot on the bench away to Southampton.Any reason Mejbri wasn't playing?
Got Lincoln on Tuesday in the Papa John’s so wondering if a few of the key players were being rested for that game? Mejbri, Elanga, Diallo?

Amad and Mejbri starting would be great. Think we’ve got too many names ahead of them at the moment unfortunately though — likely Lingard and James on the wings with Cavani/Martial needing fitness tooGot Lincoln on Tuesday in the Papa John’s so wondering if a few of the key players were being rested for that game?

He's a little bit lazy in his defensive actions, but he's a brilliant footballer and top-class in attack. One assist and one goal so far as a full back in just two games. Very impressive. I think he will end up like [Irrelevant point], as a wingback or even CM.Strange, but I thought Fernandez looked absolutely class tonight then come on here to see him get slaughtered. Not many full backs would keep up with Rankine. MOTM by a long way IMO
He was very good in the first half.. Struggled defensively a bit in the second half with Chelsea’s right winger..Strange, but I thought Fernandez looked absolutely class tonight then come on here to see him get slaughtered. Not many full backs would keep up with Rankine. MOTM by a long way IMO
Suspended from the red card at the end of last seasonAny reason Mejbri wasn't playing?
He's not getting slaughtered.Plenty of praise here.Strange, but I thought Fernandez looked absolutely class tonight then come on here to see him get slaughtered. Not many full backs would keep up with Rankine. MOTM by a long way IMO
I genuinely don’t think he looks slow. He was getting past players in the attacking third with ease.He's not getting slaughtered.Plenty of praise here.
Just a very realistic opinion that he's very slow, especially for a fullback.
It’s an U23 tournament so those guys aren’t eligibleAmad and Mejbri starting would be great. Think we’ve got too many names ahead of them at the moment unfortunately though — likely Lingard and James on the wings with Cavani/Martial needing fitness too
Surely not suspended for two games from two yellows in the last game of last season. I don't think he will play much at all with the U23.Suspended from the red card at the end of last season
He is quick, as in quick to get past one or two players who stand still. But he's not fast. He will get beaten on pace by a fast winger.I genuinely don’t think he looks slow. He was getting past players in the attacking third with ease.
I think he could positionally improve somewhat as I think that’s more important that flat out pace anyway. Looks really silky in possession which is very encouraging
