  1. We aren't going to stop conceding goals any time soon - the collective experience of our Clark and Richards combined is roughly 150 games. That's not enough IMO and as Clark, playing next to someone who doesn't know where to put themselves half the time, doesn't mark very well and goes haring off up the pitch like a madman without a moment's notice, I wouldn't be feeling confident and settled at all. If you're going to reply with something like 'You have a vendetta against Richards', can you just post a response to the criticisms of him and how you think I'm wrong about that instead? It's getting boring.
  2. He was done very easily by Lens - not good defending, whichever way you look at it.
  3. Managers live and die by results, we all know that. Today was a bad result and he needs to step it up because we can't afford to pass up points like this, not after the last 4 years or so.
  4. Maybe he's talking about getting Blues in the cup?
  5. Can we please sign Foxi Kéthévoama, just for his name?
  6. I really hope this is true - maybe Sherwood has come to his senses re: Senderos.
  7. I'd disagree with that - he just hasn't looked very good since signing. We signed a lot of unknown quantities this summer, seeing as the vast majority of the fan base don't watch Ligue 1 or the segunda in Spain, we mainly just had youtube to go on.
  8. If Traore keeps doing what he can with the balls into the box - Kozak will finish them, I'm quite sure of that.
  9. He's a joy to watch. Could actually be our best player at the moment.
  10. Jack's really coming along as a player now - just needs to work on his shooting. I think the reason he doesn't take so many shots is that he knows it's not really a strong area of his at the moment.
  11. Guzan's fine, we don't need another keeper unless we can get a significant upgrade.
  12. True - this would be the perfect move for us, really.
  13. For the love of all that is holy, please let this happen. Will be the best departure since Ireland.
  14. I'd say that Afriyie Acquah might disagree with you on that one.
  15. I think you're missing out the other end of the spectrum, which seems to be populated by people who take offence to anything remotely negative that is levelled at him. I'm on the fence RE: Sherwood. I don't hate him and I don't want him to fail - It's pretty tiring being told that I'm a hater, when I'm not.
  16. Isn't he supposed to be a bit moody though? Maybe he was in a strop because he had to play against lower league opposition? That obviously doesn't excuse it but might shed some light on his less than convincing performance.
  17. He's showing a lot more than he did last season already - we just got glimpses before but he's definitely growing into a good player, indeed. Just needs a goal now.
  18. Really good to hear that he picked up in this game - seems to be a real talent, so hopefully he'll come good for us soon.
  19. It's a real shame that he didn't impress. He has a lot of work to do to settle in and get up to speed.
  20. Scott 'Scourge of Nottingham' Sinclair. Definitely staking a claim for a place over Gabby.
  21. Does it ? 6 seasons. 174 premiership games. 9 goals. 9 assists. Petrov. Telling, eh ? Petrov didn't take set pieces and generally had a lot more to his defensive game though.
  22. Is anyone? The style of play is clearly different, the lack of chances and shots on goal is eerily familiar though.
  23. As soon as he gets the ball, our players need to react quickly and get into the box - Traore seems to have a knack of getting it in there, we just need to capitalise on it as much as possible.
  24. I'm hoping that Sherwood doesn't turn out to be as stubborn as Lambert but this is something that remains to be seen. As I've said before, I want to wait until January to make a more informed decision.
  25. What I would like to see tried: --------------Guzan-------------- Richards-Okore-Clark-Amavi --------------Sanchez----------- -----Veretout-------Gana------ Sinclair--------------------Grealish -------------Gestede------------ What I expect to see: --------------Guzan-------------- Bacuna-Richards-Clark-Amavi --------------Sanchez----------- -----Westwood-------Gana------ Gabby--------------------Grealish -------------Gestede------------
