Back to the Championship next season. Every week I see the same issue and nothing has changed. Dreaming that Roberts will turn into Messi won't save us.

Like I said, wtf is wrong with using Cresswell. It's THE most logical option.

There was no need to make those subs, certainly not three.
Bielsa probably has the same opinion of the cups as I do....

I wouldn't have started Forshaw or Roberts in the first place.

Can't we just get a free kick so Greenwood can have a go?

We really have gone to crap. The sum of our midfield creativity is to pass the ball backwards and let the defenders lob a hopeful ball forwards. Even when we do get it into a decent position it’s an awful cross or a tame shot straight at the keeper.
