pretty much this. i don’t think there’s any point in speculating about attitude, fitness or anything else as we just simply don’t know. his talent obviously hasn’t gone anywhere, came very close to scoring against ipswich, just needs one to go in now.
i don’t imagine he’ll make it a regular occurrence like hughton did but it’s really good to know we have the ability to play like that in our back pocket. we’ll need that if we get into into the latter rounds of the cups and hopefully, in the future, back into europe. seen city and arsenal do it...

“best case scenario is a soft tissue contusion/bruise which would facilitate a fast recovery.

since there’s obviously been some less than positive discussion recently about FH’s coaching ability, i thought i’d just highlight something that really impressed me with the new manager re his in-game management: his subs.
first two games of the season, brought on adingra who made either a...
he was an absolute nightmare defensively yesterday and there’s no point pretending otherwise. stopped following his man for the first goal, beaten by johnson in every 1v1 (okay yes, he is in very good form) and, most frustratingly, was absolutely nowhere near the centre back every time an attack...
it’s not but it wouldn’t matter so much if they weren’t in behind within five seconds every time it was given away.
i take your point, but again it’s the system. same root cause. ball to a player with incoming pressure, idea being they look for and find the spare man. except there is no spare...
