Alofabi he has never been behind as he’s never played for the u21 Irish side only at u19 level and the goal scoring statistics of the 2 at the same level suggest Connolly is a better goal scorer. A move to Celtic could be positive for the career but he actually needs to play.
Obafemi got 1 run...
We can but I would trust potter to get us by no matter what. He’s here as bloom has faith in the academy and potter has faith in youth to listen to him and play with freedom. Connolly and alzate will be worth more than 35 million by the end is this season.
Couldn’t see it from the north we initially thought he had knocked himself out on the crossbar or something daft. Injury looked horrible seeing it back hope he’s ok
That we should be. The academy is really beginning to produce some quality. Pipe line is there is now could save us a fortune and also make us a lot. Exciting that youngsters like white obviously out at Leeds, Roberts, cashman, teddy and others have a lot to offer over the next few years...
CH did a job and had a way to manage the team which kept up for 2 years but we defiantly needed a change. Potter naturally more balanced between attack and defence but defiantly more youth proactive and his faith is well rewarded in Alzate and Connolly both are premier league quality and more.
Got to agree. We will get a Hiding here or there but there will be more days like today and in general I expect there to be many more good days than bad. In potter we trust or should trust
Obviously they will bang out that ripped of saints song for 90 minutes and tell us about Harry Kane being one of their own. You can’t compete with things like that in the stand either. I suggest a full boycott of this game by everyone
But will we turn on the players and come into the pitch with pitch forks and bottle lids and throw them at the players in rage as spence has predicted?
Personally I would say Potter is getting a lot out of this squad in terms of implementing a style. Players are very pro for it and are enjoying it. Not seen Dunk, Propper, Stephens, March, Montoya as comfortable with the ball since they have been here. I would possibly say he is taking in to...
Squad is thin certainly when it comes to players with the ability to stick the ball in the net.
Alzate would be worth a CM place alongside Stephens and Propper when fit.
Games like today won’t dictate if we stay up but the missed opportunities v Burnley Newcastle West Ham and Southampton look...
Surprised how much progress has been made in the teams ability to move the ball and create space and we seem to be getting better at the moment. However we also need to put chances away. We should really have won tonight last week and certainly taken something from Southampton game and again...
Still positive
Wasn’t working today made some subtle changes and we dominated the other 70 minutes. Shows that he is switched on and can make changes and we are up on points from last year taking the same games into consideration. Even in a horrible game like today we tried to play our football
