Bissouma was already our player, I seem to remember many a thread and poster suggesting he shouldn't play while he was under investigation. Didn't the allegations come out in October and he was gone by the following June?
A massive difference to then signing a player with what Greenwood has...
On the odd occasion yes with the right couple of teams, but more often than not, no.
Plus non league playoffs work by rewarding your final position with home advantage.
No memory loss at all, should have had 2 x 20 goal championship seasons with the chances created. No one would dispute he gave everything - sadly his everything wasn’t championship standard, nothing against him for that, but it’s the truth of it.
Agree, however regardless of tactics / style you play, when players lose form and confidence, it’s difficult to turnaround. West Ham have hardly had any injuries this season, play a low block counter and yet have suffered a similar dip post Europe.
You can’t take the best players out of our...
There’s an increased risk of getting hit by one of the increasing number of people texting while driving. I’m slightly more worried about those people than swords tbh.
Had a similar discussion with a colleague. It wasn't just being in Europe, it was the highs of winning the group, that glorious evening beating Marseilles. Not only have there been physical challenges, but emotional too. Playing away at Ajax, Athens and Marseilles, but needing those same levels...
He’s young, he got sacked from Palermo as what, a 35 year old new manager - not that unusual.
Then had success and got the Sassuolo job and did 3 years there before the Shakthar job.
Not sure there is too much to dig into.
Still 29 points from 28 games so over 1 ppg and well above the relegation squabble this season. If our first 6 games only yielded 1 ppg we’d still be level with Brentford.
Was it? I was quite excited to see some of the youngsters start. Reckon Steele would have dealt with their first better too.
What do we know? RDZ may have even discussed giving youngsters a chance with TB and Barber.
The big question is whether we should have tried what Gary ONeill did at Wolves and go Hughton-esque for a while.
There is an irony though in fans seemingly wanting us to revert to April 2019 tactics.
They lost 2 nil against a City side looking like it didn’t feel it needed to get out of the 2nd gear it finished Thursday in.
Managers surf the wave of players finding confidence and form. 6 weeks ago Everton were on a dreadful run looking doomed. Now he’s being touted for top jobs on football...
With MacA and Caicedo around him, Gross shone, Gilmour couldn’t get much of a look in.
As much as I love how far Gilmour has come on, expecting him and Baleba to fill the void of those departing players left us vulnerable, and so it has come to pass.
