I imagine that the Blackburn goal against us (I think it was) where they won the ball high up and the lad cracked it in from distance, as well as the ...
@werdermouth It looked like a 4-1-4-1 for large parts at the weekend. Howson was very deep for a lot of the game, almost as a third centre-back, wit...
Haha! She said she enjoyed it and would like to go again. I told her she’d have to go with someone else! To be honest, I think that’s why I was so...
The dust has settled a bit for me now. I was so frustrated coming away from the game yesterday but it passes. Just a few points: 1. I was dumfound...
Redcar Red, I owe you an apology - that was as bad as Strachan. Too annoyed to bother commenting further at the moment.
Pretty much agree with all of that, RR. I also think that, certainly at a higher level, Tav may end up as a wingback or even fullback (like his brot...
@werdermouth oh-oh - she does love Blackpool…. 😬
@werdermouth Fingers crossed that they’ve had their Weetabix this morning (other breakfasts are available) - I’m taking my 8-year-old to her first g...
@k-p-in-spain Agreed! Only place I could find for him is in a back three but whilst I've been a strong advocate for wingbacks over the last few seas...
@k-p-in-spain Please no McNair in midfield!
Thanks Bob, much appreciated. Bola being fit will be the main ingredient to add to what we had against Forest, that and a boost in confidence and ma...
@jarkko I would have scored them both at one mark lower.
@werdermouth I'd like to think that this was just a bit of man-management, building up confidence for a couple of players who didn't have their best...
Nothing too much to add to what has already been said here. I didn't think the performance overall was markedly better than others of late where we've...
@deleriad We could play a 3-4-3 ala Conte's Chelsea. He had Victor Moses at wingback as well wingers who came inside and joined in with the frontman...
The sale of Morsy is the one that really makes no sense to me. I would prefer to have kept Wing, Coulson and Spence too (especially given Fisher's inj...
@clive-hurren Clive, you’ve just perfectly summarised the match preview I’ve drafted up for the Forest game. I’ll stick it up tomorrow.
John Terry is the sort of name and level of experience that Steve Gibson has gone for in the past but perhaps having Kieran Scott around would change ...
Best young managers around?
@redcarred It’s not often I disagree with you RR but I really think what we’ve seen this season is nowhere near as bad as Strachan and considerably ...
Bugger. A very entertaining, end-to-end, open game but ultimately a disappointing outcome. A rare off day for Djiksteel and Bamba looked vulnerabl...
Excellent work, OFB 👏 👏 Very interested to see the line-up against Coventry as we do now have a lot of competition in attacking areas. With sever...
@ken In case you're interested, Smudger and Dusty are ok but I'd steer well clear of the rest, Ken!
@selwynoz Pretty much agree with that. With the window closed, I suspect Premier League clubs will be sending out lists of who’s now available for l...
@werdermouth Well, Mbappe is definitely NOT going to Real apparently….
It would be a strange move by the club if Morsy were to leave. We may have a number of alternative centre-midfielders but none really do the job he do...
I didn't see or hear the game yesterday unfortunately due to family commitments but reading reports, the general comments above and looking at the mat...
@original-fat-bob He certainly very, very quick and quite physical. He suits Warnock-ball but seems to be one of those players who is forever raw.
@redcarred Fitness is another reason why we won't get an offer we can't refuse.
