    Empty threat. He's not going to play a bunch of kids in a semi-final.

    You have to say that Ralph made the wrong call, he should've played fringe players with the carrot of Wembley rather than ones who are protecting themselves for it.

    Can't even put some basic passing together.

    Let’s give the Baggies some credit. You don’t bang five in against Chelsea without having found some form, and they’ve been superb.

    Does anyone want to sign Walcott permanently this summer?

    A performance like this from a team fighting for its life is hardly surprising at the tail end of the season. They simply aren't letting us play. Hopefully we can keep it to two until half time and let Ralph work some dressing room magic.

    Oh indeed .
    But to say we are safe is not realistic imho . And no we won’t win the FA cup . We will win FA though . Sorry , but they are my thoughts . Night all .

    Birthday tomorrow :)

    Ralph's got to get some sort of hairdryer out at HT surely. I'm not talking Fergie levels but the players need a kick up the arse.

    What's to say we wouldn't be 3 down if we played the fringe players? Then I'm sure everyone would moan he rotated.

    I wish I hadn't turned this on. We can't do the basics. It is pretty horrible viewing.

    10 points clear and Fulham have to win 4 out of their last 6 to do it...and we have to also not pick up any points in our last 8....

    No transfer fee, has done well this season for the most part, he really wants to be here. I know he's not great at finishing and lacks composure sometimes but he's been effective in the formation Ralph has played.

    It’s not the Champions League final on Sunday. It’s a semi final. Yeah it’s a big game, but if they’re ‘saving themselves’ they need a rocket.

    But we have the worst of both worlds so far, damaged confidence, fitness and no points if it stays the same. The team out there have let him down big time.
