Walcott played no worse than Tella, he is not the first man to miss a penalty in a shootout.
Walcott put in a shift, even if things didn't come off |  |

Are you kidding!?
Tella was a live wire and touched the ball
This is now abig test of the actual manager Ralph is, on the back of last night Walcott should only ever be sub at best
Also time to quit this charade and play our best keeper that is FF, we are not in the position to rotate | | | |

I thought it was a performance that us fans could be proud of. No need to dig out individuals as overall it was much better than we have been getting.
Lyanco was a revelation last night. Everything we want from a centre back. It will be interesting to see which is the real Lyanco. The one that player last night, or the one that played against Sheffield United. |  | | |

The problem for some is that they always have to have a player to criticise, Walcott is getting a lot of stick but he played 25 minutes or so in a team that battled hard and earned a draw against a far superior on paper Chelsea team.
We should be winning as a team and losing as a team, the players clearly do and so should the fans, we should look to highlight those who were outstanding, not pick out those who didn't play quite so well.
Especially when it is only some who are picked out, on Saturday livramento let his man go and have a free header for Burnley's first goal, barely a mention of that on message boards, if it had been Walcott then it would have been all over the place.
Truth is our best period in the game came in the final 10 minutes when their keeper had to keep them in it.
You are only as good as your last game is the old adage, Lyanco was new to the club when he played at Sheffield, those who went told me he was ok, got caught a couple of times, but other than that looked ok, clearly a little bit more training and learning etc has improved him. | |

Nick as I said let's not dig players out but certain players get less stick because they deliver at other times.
Stuart Armstrong is cut slack when he misplaces as pass because often he makes that pass.
Livramento made the odd error and got caught but he does so much other stuff well.
Some players seem to deliver very little and therefore have no "credit" in the bank. Walcott has delivered very little and therefore is on relatively thin ice with the fans. | | | |

RH seems to have a good process of getting players acclimatised to his system, giving them time and not exposing them in the pell mell of the PL. If Lyanco turns out to be anything like Salisu, who was also prone to getting caught out in his early outings, we will not have much to complain about, and the club will likely turn a good profit in time. |  | | |

I don't think Walcott has played well this season, I don't think that he deserves a place in the starting line up, but that doesn't mean that I don't want him to do well.
When certain players make a mistake you just know that there will be some out there who will be straight on there back, that whatever they do there will be no praise or indeed any slack.
I have seen people say that Walcott cost us the game last night, that bringing him on stopped us winning, that is just not true, we needed fresh legs, we needed experience, Walcott provided both, what he didn't provide was a match winning pass or shot, so in some peoples eyes that meant he had not done a job or had played badly.
There are certain whipping boys in the squad who some seem to almost relish having a go at them, almost waiting for them to fail so they can gloat and have a rant about why they were selected.
After this game it should have been all about a great performance and a spirit in the camp that should hopefully propel us up the league, it should have been about Lyanco or Fraser Forster or how hard Adam Armstrong grafted, how Yan Valery won the ball and gave it to Walker Peters to lay on the goal for Che Adams, but it wasn't it was about having a go at Theo Walcott | |

I believe they're still looking for the ball from Will Smallbone's penalty somewhere in Fulham this morning... |  |

Tella’s confidence is probably shot after excelling last season and playing very well this pre season. He’s been dumped like a piece of rubbish .You don’t treat young players like that, you tell them how brilliant they are , put your arm round them and tell them to go out and cause havoc.

How can you say ‘Walcott played no worse than Tella’? Walcott was only on the pitch 20 odd minutes.I didn’t see much of a contribution when he came on.As 1Team says Tella has been treated very poorly,he’s a good player who put himself about last night and did his best,to compare him to Walcott is ridiculous.

Fully agreed and the same can be said of KWP
Another major ? where Ralphs "management" skills are concerned | | | |

So he still failed to hit the target from 12 yards - fair enough if you hit the target and the keeper saves it, but to not hit the target is criminal. His miss was the same result as Smallbone's - a miss !!
When Walcott and Long came on with 20 mins to go, everyone around us was saying things like 'is Ralph trying to lose this on purpose' and 'why bring on the OAPs' ?
To be fair Long did OK and had a great chance, but Walcott was as poor as he has been in recent games. That was the chance RH had to bring on Livramento in a more advanced role (rather than give him 5 mins at the end). He would have been by far the better option, as he had a point to prove against his old club. |  |
