Tomaszk

I'm sure a £9m bonus for keeping them up again will soften the dent to his ego.

Wow yeah, a 2 year loan! Didn't know that, thought it was a signing. Don't know rules anymore but I think he could play for us as he hasn't played for Frankfurt this season? They could cancel the Milan deal and send him to Birmingham, that's a huge upgrade for the lad. He'll be desperate to play before the Euros and would fit into the team well I think. Might have some competitors.

That Rashica transfer will not happen with us sat so low, it's incredibly unlikely even if we win the next four. The equivalent is pretty much Grealish going and signing for Werder Bremen, forgetting the extra wealth on offer in the PL. He's their talisman and best player by a mile. I reckon we could get Ante Rebic on loan with a purchase price built in from Milan. Not too dissimilar as a player, stock not quite as high as Rashica right now.

Stop debating with a troll!!

All up to him. Being really good isn't enough. He's got to be brilliant again and carry us to results in these next two games.

I can see nothing but a real bullying and a loss. I think Smith will start Hourihane in place of Marvellous and we'll not no attacking sub when he gets steamrollered along with everyone except Grealish. Essential we bring Fred G in to help with Deulofeu. Play conservatively first 20 mins, don't concede and ease into the game. Hold the **** ball up Wesley.

Depends if you were sat in the Holte or North Stand.

Last chance for me this Jan. See if he can find anyone. Four main signings from him this summer. Only one "good" signing, and he's ideally one for the future not now in Doug. Also a shame a left back wasn't found better value than Targett for £11-14m. I hated that story about the agent. Absolute joke if we've resorted to that already, recommendations from bloody agents and get lumbered with Wes and a 50/50 player in Marvellous. That's not scouting.

We got good money for a player we wouldn't have been able to use properly for a year or two. Cock-up we made was not buying the right players who could help us there and then. Other error we made with him was not playing him up front 90 mins every game in the year we went down so fans could have some fun watching.

I really really hope he knows how to play more than one formation. That Norwich performance is the first 90 mins we've ever played under him not 433. A pure "head coach" with the support of a director of football buying all the players has to have more than one way to play.

Ivan Toney - ST Mounir Chouiar - LW Wylan Cyprien - CM That'd be good.

Yes to everything here. I don't know what's happened to him. He's suddenly got really nervous on the ball and it's affecting his whole game. I think we broke him by leaving as the only man defending alongside Heaton while everyone else danced forward. PTSD of Maddison and Tielemens.

Just can't see more than a point from Watford and Burnley. No faith at all that we won't get bullied by both. I'd bite your arm off for two points for the pair in normal circumstances but that's not enough. Everyone is picking up points. West Ham dropping like a stone which is nice to see. Everton unreal form. A good team to look at for what a few wins can do for your confidence and league position.

Bristol City At least there's one team we don't have to worry about when we go down.

Callum Robinson and some change would have been infinitely more use this season. Robert Skov was the one! £9m, which I think was the full Trez fee? Somewhere in the 9-11m window I thought? Anyway, Skov! Guy plays two positions we we were desperate for RW and LB! What a miss.

Can't believe some of these reviews, admire the positivity. Yes he was good for Wes. Man alive, wait until we get a forward that can play a bit. Dunno what the hell we're gonna do with him after this season. Obviously not a PL player and not good enough for a team (hopefully) at the top of the championship. I expect it'll a be a loan somewhere in the hope he can bag in a weaker league.

That was hilarious but Jack can't do that on the reg. Do your best to encourage Jacko. It was a great explosion of frustration though, really funny. We hadn't had the ball for about 5 mins and the simple 20 yard pass into him was such an easy ball, but Targett rushed it because he's a big soft jellyfish. I don't think Jack would have gone quite that mad if it was Taylor or Wes for example who are touch and go to make that pass under a bit of pressure.

That was very crap, great chance. What I will say though...is that there was 8(!) Norwich players packed inside their box. We had maybe 2 or 3? Ghazi was on his way in, maybe with Trez and Wes too far out. There was very little to hit. The fizz across was required though yes, I think Fred would have done that.

Bench at Watford for me, he'll get steamrollered starting that game. Hopefully we'll be in a position to bring him on. Did the thing be does today, nice finish. We've learnt nothing new though.

Gattuso is exactly who we need right now!

He seemed downbeat after the game to me. Can't think of a time he's dismissed the performance before and said we just need the win. He probably has, just can't remember. He's not necessarily wrong, but he's a principled chap who has his way of playing, which we veered away from today. I don't think he's comfortable with it. He didn't seem sold on the 4231 that I think we have to stick with and work at. We're just too open without it. We were open with it! But it was a very slightly tighter side than usual IMO. We need some signings desperately. Both wingers and the striker can be improved on without spending trillions.

He stinks of Bossie.

It's getting silly now. He's up there with best Villa players I've ever seen and is probably my favourite of the lot. He's better than Barry, he's better than Young, he's better than Benteke, he's better than Gareth effing Southgate. He's in the Yorkie and Paul McGrath leagues. Liverpool are 15 points clear or something and he'd start for them and make them better.

Sadly I'm 43% sure that's how he's suddenly been seen to be good enough as a signing. This Egyptian push is a big part of the club's plans. The XI on the field are absolutely not good enough to carry him I'm afraid.

I know what you mean but we're working with scraps right now. Anyone showing some bravery to play will get a huge thumbs from me. Jack can't do it all on his own.
