Bodo Glimt... a normally mediocre small Norwegian team are absolutely ripping the Norwegian league to pieces this year and this boy is one of the main reasons.
Yes yes please.
I'd like to say that the comparison with Bong was deliberate to create an argument. It wasn't but it did it well enough.
I know March is better than Bong as an all round player and as an LWB and I now regret the comparison. For one, as I keep saying, March might grow into the position. I also...
If true... sad to see him go as he has been a great servant for us but it's the right time. Last year his effectiveness was starting to wane and I think Bissouma is an upgrade.
Good luck Dale (but not against us)
Why can it not be that Potter knows we don't have the answer at the club and March is a best answer until we get soemone? That I totally agree with. What I'm saying is I think it's clear we've been trying to get an LWB all summer and if March was the answer we wouldn't be looking for one. And...
Hmmm....re: March I did say he did nothing wrong and I am not criticising him. I just don't think he is the answer. Ideally I want two LWBs who can defend and attack and at the moment we don't have it nor do we have the time to wait for March who may become one. March as back up fine but we need...
Red doesn't have to be deliberate... juts has to be dangerous play.... studs in the face is the definition of dangerous play. Red and very very stupid. Didnt need to do it.
I'll bet the ban is increased and we won't appeal.
... from an 'almost' perfect performance.
1) Tariq terrifies teams!!! Can't remember when we had player like that. Non even Wardie in the old League 1. Think he only went off as a precaution but needs to be kept in cotton wool. MOM just for the time he was on the field by a mile!
2) The...
Guardian had this today.... anyone listening to these (Buxton is the dogs!)

Two other things....
Absolutely agree it was lovely to enjoy a match without fretting and I did think we dominated the match.
Potter has a history of having a striker who causes mayhem, lays off, but doesn't score a huge number of goals. He had someone like that at Ostersunds (ghoddos?)...
Lack of command of area. A lot of flapping around in the first half. His history is a good reflex keeper who makes great saves but makes mistakes and very brittle confidence. Saw all that last night.
re: Jahanbaksh and Bernardo... both started badly (it was a cross not a shot) but then grew in...
- Bernardo and Jahanbaksh are so frustrating. There is clearly a lot of potential there but it comes and goes and is often accompanied by dross. We saw both sides tonight.
- Gyokeres could be another Glenn Murray. Not yet... but there were signs. Worth watching.
- Veltman and Molumby are...
That we desperately need a striker and a left wing back as we already knew.
Maupay and Connolly were ineffective and although March did OK it doesn't fill me with confidence for the whole season. A Lamptey on the left and we are laughing.
Alzate made a big mistake but generally played well and...
Brewster will not play for Liverpool this season. It's the wrong question... the only ones are where and when (and for how much)... it would be nice to think that for once someone will choose us over other options... others, that is, than local boys (Lallana and White)
The problem was always Maty. Martinez would have to be no:1 . What Brighton want is someone to challenge Maty. If Villa can guarantee No1 then he's going there. Simples.
