Another reminder that there's a huge lack of quality in the squad.

Talk of europe, winning trophies, you need to look at what was on show today.
The u21 sides of the top 4 would beat these....

Dibling, needs game time because he’s learning nothing training and then sitting on the bench at Everton.
He looked bored, he looked tired and it looked to me like he feels that nobody has got any real confidence in him.
I’ve just been sent a video of my eighteen month old grandson playing with a ball on holiday Michael. He kept picking it up, running the wrong way, and he also fell over when he kicked it, but I got a lot more enjoyment out of watching that two minute clip, because at least he had loads of energy!
The players used to have an excuse for the lack of quality that was produced over Christmas, because they played too many games, but I suppose the excuse for a few of our players today, is that they simply haven’t played enough football.
It’s like the chicken and the egg scenario, I don’t know what came first, but unless players get more game time on a regular basis, then some will say they are not good enough whilst others will blame the manager, becaus...

When I saw the team it was obvious we would struggle to create or score. Quite happy with a point in the end as we were without our three best players and we know the centre forward is a dud.
We learned nothing from this game, it just confirmed that the aquad players are not good enough for the premier league.
Please buy/loan a centre forward at 00.01 hrs on 1st January. He could play next weekend....

Well that was about what you’d expect with those 11 on the pitch. And a reminder of how much depth we lack. Quite lucky to escape with a point there given the chances we allowed.
Aside from the fact that Dibling looks uninterested, he certainly has quality in him, especially given his age. Maybe not £40 million worth of quality, but certainly the potential to be a top player in a couple years. The true test would be to see him starting alongside a central midfield and forward better than what we had out there today. Hopefully his demeanor is a reflection of his age and just a more serious, introverted personality — like Barry — and not that he hates being out on the pitch.
We’ll be lucky to get a point moving forward against anyone other than Wolves playing like that and with those players. But 11th place at mid-season certainly represents progress....

I thought Dibbling had his moments, but like Grealish, he slows the game down sometimes. We need a fast winger to come in to replace McNeil's place in the squad....
