Been a fantastic servant for the club but seems like he’s just going through the motions and getting his pay check at the end of the month.
Think it’s time for him to move on or hang up the boots

I think whoever plays with Sawyers is knackered.
We took Ralls off and brought on TWO CM's in Wintle and Rinomhota
Piss poor selection, but the manager is picking on reputations, I agree sadly Ralls is on the downgrade but Sawyers is nowhere near championship nowadays
The manager is guessing his way to a team

About three years too late.

Some have mentioned he wont be around much longer. I thought they were being a bit harsh on him. I fear they might have a point now. The reality is our squad is the problem and no manager is going to save us.

Should never have been given that new contract in the summer. Said it at the time and stand by it.

Agree , 2nd half we were much better without him .

Disappointed in the Manager today. Thought he got the team selection all wrong. Only thing i can think of he's taken advise from others but picking Ralls i dont understand it the lack of pace in our midfield is what will cost us in the end.

We started the game 424 FFS against a team on one hell of a run and got mullered in between the lines
We looked better in the 4231 when they all changed, but for me the issue was Sawyers, what does he do except the easy nothing pass?
Then he drops Sayers into a deep holder and goes 4141. It Mike Bassett stiff ATM.

Although Ralls time is definitely coming to an end, I would rather sawyers gone. I really don’t see what he offers.

Without Ralls in the team, who breaks up the play? I think he's a real victim of useless 'defence from the top' players like Ojo and Phillogene.
I'd like to see Rinomhota and Ralls together with Wintle and/or Ojo being left out.

he has been a great servant, however, he is not a captain.. and not now our first choice..
lKaba today was more vocal.
need rino and wintle as our midfield
captain??? someone more vocal

Ralls is simply not up to it. He wasn’t last year and certainly isn’t this year.
He is nowhere near good enough to challenge Wintle or Rinomhota for a CM spot and hopefully Lamouchi learnt that today.
I said in the summer we should have let him go and I stand by that. Not Championship quality or anywhere near it.

Very evident today that Ralls was late to everything and a liability apart from one decent tackle & shot.
Much better with Rino & Wintle although I wish they’d gamble on the edge of the box. Plenty of opportunities missed.

I like ralls, have stuck up for him in the past and appreciate his commitment to us over the years, however there's no room for sentiment in football and unfortunately he's not up to it anymore. Was sad to see.
Maybe years of playing in the championship have taken its toll on him.
I thought sawyers who I've slated and been disappointed with was better deeper trying to dictate after the subs

Ojo n philogene were diabolical today ..mcguinness wasn't much better either
