You can see another 7-8 wins?

We weren't way better than 16th because we made mistakes all season, which undid a lot of the good work. Time and again we lost concentration at key moments and regularly lost leads that we had worked hard to gain. We lack a bit of steel at times and if we lose our most aggressive and dynamic...

Ok....give my your assessment of Aaron Connolly. To my mind, he lacks the strength and cleverness of Barnes. He can't hold the ball up in forward positions and Barnes is a much superior finisher and was at the same age. If you play Connolly in 38 games next season, I would expect about 4 goals...

Newly promoted Leeds won twice as many games as us and rock bottom Sheff Utd won only two less than us. Nine wins will probably keep you up but not do a lot more, hence we are always in the bottom six. Talk of top ten is ludicrous. It would mean doubling the number of wins we usually get. We...

6.....Too much frustration took the edge off the season for me. Most games were characterised by decent play from the back and through midfield, only for it to continually break down in the final third. The manager has drilled the squad into being comfortable on the ball, passing it around...

Pointless exercise in bringing on Connolly. Its Zeqiri and Tau we need to look at. We all know about the horizontal Irishman. As usual, he had a gift wrapped opportunity and it ended up nearer the corner flag. The whole team went through the motions and were outplayed from start to finish. I...

Define....' Cheesy ' and ' Non Cheesy ' One person's Howling Wolf is another person's Billy Fury. One person's Petula Clark is another person's Janis Joplin.

.......probably not but who cares.....just a throwaway word with no thought given.....as common in some people's parlance now as hello and goodbye.

As the great Sugar Ray Robinson once said....." All I want....is everything "

Tend to agree with a lot of that. In the aftermath of a famous win, it is easy to gloss over a lot that happened last night. White and Webster are still vulnerable without the presence of Dunk. Our passing in general was poor last night, particularly in the first half. Sanchez had shaky moments...

Trossard gets ' up ' for the big teams. Early in the season he ran Utd ragged and last night was the same. Got a feeling that he needs the challenge of being rotated. He puts in too many lethargic performances when he is starting all the time. I think Potter is starting to work him out. He has...

Leicester as well.

Burnley.....Its their time. Good run but maybe one recovery too many. Wolves.....Particular project built around a Portugese base. Vulnerable to any change in the dynamic e.g Nuno leaving and taking 1-2 with him. Saints.......Ings goes....they are f--kd. Pound for pound kept their heads above...

So we are going to do this after losing our best player. Someone who holds the whole midfield together. I wish. ( 16th will do me nicely...thank you )

Well....they have got a 17 year old called Jebbison, who scored on debut v Everton and already looks better than Brewster. Panic buy and Liverpool are still rubbing their hands.

No....it won't. Deliberate ploy from the Wilder camp to get a substantial pay-off, to step aside and let this happen. Wilder then has a warm up fight himself ( possibly Ruiz? ) before challenging the winner in 2022.

If Moss was so bad, then why didn't all our other players surround him at the final whistle? Why didn't Potter and his team have words at the end? I'll tell you why......because Potter demonstrates and demands respect and dignity towards officials ( the Brian Clough way ) whatever happens on the...

White 100% Bissouma knits the midfield together and is a vital cog in the engine. White is good on the ground but not strong or dominant enough in the air. We can replace White. Biss would be difficult in the short term and would affect the team next season. So saying, it looks like Biss is much...

Welbeck is a class act. 77 international games at all levels and 27 goals, especially at Full Level, where he played 42 times and scored 16. We need that quality and class upfront. No one else in the squad could have made that run on Saturday. He is capable of at least 8 goals if he plays most...
