Hi Matthew Morris, without wanting to being too fence-sitty, I think you are both right! When Adama came on he swung the game in our favour and turned the tide, even before Kevin came on. But this was more because of his positioning and profile than what he actually did on the ball. I’d give a rating of 8.5 for Impact, 6 for Output.

I apologize for even commenting, I should let your have your say but…. I just couldn’t disagree more on Adama. Game was absolute turgid until he came on. He may be awkward but his speed and imperialness had a clear positive effect in changing the tide of a dreadful game.

I think you're being way too charitable on Iwobi. He was forced off the ball far too many times and was struggling to complete a pass. He's a good player but I think he's just been run ragged.

100% agree. I love Iwobi but he seems to be playing tired. Some time off, serving as an impact sub, wouldn’t hurt I don’t think.

Adama was a bright spark amidst a bunch of damp squibs.

Silva has yet to figure out a tactical solution to break down a team that comes for a point.

Our hopes lie with the two new wingers…certainly not with ESR.

Dreadful game, dreadfully lucky result.

Again.
