We know Liam Rosenior is not afraid of showing his squad footage of their acts of folly. After his big miss here‚ Liam Delap may have feared being tied to a chair and‚ in the style of Clockwork Orange‚ forced to watch his big miss over and over upon his return to Cobham. Initially‚ Delap did well. His closing down of Dillon Phillips was enough to block the Hull goalkeeper's clearance as the ball then bounced off the underside of the crossbar. It went so close to the goal-line that Delap thought it was in‚ lifting his arm in the air and looking towards the referee. The trouble is‚ the ball had not crossed the line‚ and Delap had wasted so much time believing it had that he reacted too late to the rebound. He should have shown some urgency by simply making sure it was in himself‚ and you suspect Rosenior will let him know that.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT MOLINEUX: Chelsea squeezed past Wolves 4-3 in a remarkable Carabao Cup tie but were not helped by the dismissal of Liam Delap‚ who came on as a second-half substitute only to pick up two yellow cards in seven minutes.
