Neither striker released was prolific last season. I suspect that was down to tactics and chances created. The question really is would they have scored goals given more chances and would Trossard Connelly etc scored from the same chances. I would suggest the answer would have been yes. This...

Quote of the thread. Sums it up nicely. Even if trossard had to play in the Andone roll he would be a 100% better and 100% less a liability and I would bank on him getting more goals over a season in that position than Andone. If we get a free agent in then great but I won’t lose any sleep if...

A lot of talk about Connelly and rightly so but I think Alzate may be the first to make his league debut. He looks everything we don’t have in our midfield, pace and box to box midfielder. The manager said he was impressed with him in pre season and by all accounts he was mom last night. Early...

Ryan Montoya Duffy Dunk Burn Stephens Propper Trossard March Andone Murray Subs Locadia Button Webster Maupay Baluta Bernardo Gross It goes to show how far we have come. Having to think about who plays, where as the team used to pick itself. Stephens and Propper need to up their game now or...

Don’t think it is banter as far as BG is concerned he thinks Dunk is a championship centre back worth 2 bob. Lol

Ha ha look at this side and thought who would leave our captain and ever present centre back out of the starting line up. Then looked at who posted and it says it all. You really are clueless. If you think Dunk is that bad that all previous managers got it wrong.

Could be we never see him in the first team. He may be that good that after a season with Leeds one of the big six comes calling and we cash in and would not stand in his way of a dream move, but he is still young and consistency may prove a problem. Either way it is a win win for the club. We...

Our worst player by a country mile. Lost the ball every time he controlled it and found one of their players when he passed it. Alzate may have had a few misplaced passes but did more in 20 minutes than he did all game. Liked the look of the three at the back. Burn looked solid. March looked so...

Propper still looks like he is struggling with passing the ball. Think he may be the one that misses out in midfield starting place. Stephens looks better passing quicker and forwards instead of backwards like last season

Alzate seems to be the one that has impressed the new manager most since his arrival and would not be surprised to see him in the 18 against Watford together with Baluta. Our midfield from last year have to really up their game if they want keep their places in the starting line up. Potter will...

Lucy bronze should have taken penalty. She would have put her foot through it.

From that we may assume that Gykores will be considered as a first team squad player, especially as he has played in a senior international with Sweden and scored He has also scored for Sweden under 21's in both games last week. I would like for him to at least be given a chance to break into...

Ha ha very good. Teach me not to proof read before posting.

Gyokeres has played the most minutes, and did have one good run and IIRC a weak shot but he looked way, way short of PL standard. If my memory serves me right the senior players playing that day were absolutely gash. Gyokeres came on and did make a difference. There were several times last...

My view of Hughton is summed up by Solly March. During the season it looked like he was told to curb his instincs to get forward and defend at all costs. With no pressure on against Arsenal it looked as if it was go and enjoy yourself. How many other players have been held back by the tactics of...

Have a word with Chris Hughton. He will be parking the bus. May be room for your car

Don’t think Ryan is the problem. Box to box midfielders and two lively guys up front are the difference. Burnley has to defend yes, but they were always in the game because they break in numbers and at pace. Looking forward to seeing a shot at goal tomorrow night at Spurs or maybe not. Lol

How on earth under current form are Stephens and Propper playing in front of Kayal. Both have been absolutely gash for weeks and the main reason why we have been over run by every midfield in recent weeks against sides that were below us. It goes to show how weak are squad is if he sticks with...

In theory what you say is right, 433 should be more attacking but the wingers still play more as extra defenders or filling in across the midfield. Most crosses, if we have any, come from our full backs effectively still playing 451 leaving Murray or whoever plays up front isolated, as our...

Absolute disgrace not a penalty and now an offside goal. Why is VAR not used in all cup games at this stage.
