Annoying in many ways. And indicative of the egos at play.

A manager not on his way out tries to win this game. Does not do any favours for the likes of lallana or steele, who could easily have been brought on for 2 mins at the end for a round of applause.

Take the best player in the game (baleba) out, without giving him a go with Billy while Gross strolls through the game.

A champing at the bit Enciso on the bench.

On the plus side, Barco is going to be brilliant and a couple of additions aside we have an insanely good team available to the right manager.

Well that summed up the season for me. Started off well, lots of effort and huff and puff but ultimately failed to get anything from that and then fell down at the end.

On to the Manager and players leaving/arriving rumour mill for the summer.

I thought he had a good game, so good to see him back on form . . .hopefully the new manager will use him to his strengths, but also has the versatility to be a useful utility player . . .a la Gross

who was very dissapointing today, so negative, no courage . . . .

A real let down to the end of the season losing thos 2 games.

Shocking in front of goal and shocking we conceded two times straight through the centre without them having to do anything.

I think about 8 first team players needed, given the rate we sustain injuries.

He was decent and composed in an unfamiliar position. Which is what you notice watching football in a stadium. Instead of noticing a player only in the moments they make a mistake on television.

The injuries will miraculously stop next season now that a certain Bielsa wannabe has gone.

Hopefully over the summer they'll all attend passing practice at the local under 8's saturday school...particularly the pass to someone in the same shirt as you practice...

Seriously it was a bit of a let down indeed...the first half was promising, but then a few brain farts and we are 2 nil down....can't even blame the ref today...

Welbeck why a two year deal didn’t get onto any balls played to him today to slow.
I don’t really understand why everyone acts like Danny Welbeck is our saviour. He’s a good striker, but should only be playing for the last 30 minutes - that type of player.
