Kayal was taken off injured v Hull and hadn't completely recovered. Not sure why he was on the bench, surely being 3-0 down inside the first half would make you think 'things are bad enough to risk him'. So I think we have to allow for that change. The only possible argument I can think of for...

You seemed to stop halfway through your list of 'how many points we'd have if...' scenarios. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what point you were trying to make, but I thought I'd be helpful and finish the list anyway.

I'd like to think not, but people criticised Stockdale's kicking v Brentford. Someone felt that Stockdale's kicking is so perfect, he must have been under instruction to kick it out of play, or straight through to their keeper in that game. So, maybe he did? But more seriously, he decided to...

A lot of what is being criticised are things that I've seen in most of our home games this season - defenders backing off and backing off, no movement up front (or on set pieces), not doing enough with our attacks (our goals tend to be counter attacks these days, catching the defence out, when...
