Have not got a problem with either on the bench as they will probably remain fitter and more reliable than the other two over the course of the season anyway. Lua Lua has been here long enough to be an automatic starter but has not become a permanent starter so, I assume that Tilley and Monokana...
All the time O'Grady is up front for us we will not score goals. Colunga must be on his way as well as he does not appear to be able to get into games either. Whilst I won't take too much out of this game given the side we have out, it is worrying that yet again it looks like another defeat and...
Absolutely this. Rea has served a few years in the development squad and has now represented the Irish under 21's, albeit in midfield. At what stage is he supposed to be good enough. The Academy is there to bring players through. How are people going to react when the new finish striker and...
This. As a collective you can't go through a season with such a poor group and then add even poorer players on loan during the season. Have some sympathy for the managers last season expected to make a silk purse out of a cows ear.
I know that all the players you mentioned played last season but do you actually think that the players you mentioned will play as many games this year and I did not say that none of the players would play in the first league game. I agree they should be playing for their places but how many...
Absolutely this. How many of those who played against Lewis will play the first game against Forest. Hardly any. Calde is not a winger. If we play two up front together then we need a wide player to supply the balls in. Solly March could be the answer if he can stay fit. Colunga and O'Grady must...
Agree with a lot of people on here. New keeper did all that was asked of him. Rosenior looked good. Very impressed with Dallison and . Ince was our best player in the first half. Tilley looks some prospect and looked to shoot when running at the defence. If you don't shoot you won't score and we...
Happy to see Zamora sign and COG go, but I personally think that if, as CH has hinted, he wants to play two up front, then Baldock and Colunga will flourish this year alongside Hemed. Colunga in particular if retained and played in the right position could be a revelation in my opinion. I hope...
Absolutely this. People read what they want to read in many of Barber's statements and to some he will never do anything right. Like you I can see nothing wrong in what he is saying and certainly does not alter any statements made previously regarding future signings. I fully expect further...
The commentators all having a go at JFC but he was better than half of the players out there and has Loftus-Cheek made a difference no. If they are going to have a go at anyone the whole defence has been awful.
Typical Lawrenson, always talking crap JFC has been far better than Chalabah yet he hasn't mentioned him. Southgate will change it though needing two goals. Redmond should come off as well. Too many players having poor games. Blame the midfield yes but good god the defending was awful.
We will only know the sum of the clubs ambitions once the first signing is made, but I think most people think that it is heading the way of last year. Having said that, I will only start to worry if nothing happens after the 1st of July. As was posted elsewhere 80% of clubs in the championship...
Exactly my point. Do you think TB will continue to pump money in if we have 14K gates. No, he will either sell or cut budgets and we will be heading for League two. There are different limits to struggling financially and at the moment as in most clubs, as you say, the clubs are propped up by...
