  1. He was doing to Fulham what RLC was doing to us all game, just running through the opposition using his physicality. It was great to see. He's arguably (along with Wes) the only player in our squad that can do this but its this plan B that we havent used often enough when Jack's guile doesnt work (it usually does) or when Jack isnt playing.We just dont run through teams directly into the box. Hopefully this strikes a chord with Smith and he uses this more often rather than in the last 10 minutes of a game we are chasing.
  2. Good luck with that. Where’s open today? Get one for me if you have any luck!
  3. Loved the result but we were very poor again. I hope we learn from this and actually try to score. I’d start the final 11 from the start next game. I would add though, with the exception of Martinez, Grealish, Konza, Cash and Targett, I expected much more from everyone else all season and especially at the moment. Watkins just escapes this criticism basically because the service is rarely there for him, but he too could be a better version of himself if everyone kicked on
  4. Can’t help but think if Ming’s hadn’t gifted them a goal we’d still be labouring away without troubling their area
  5. I don’t recall the time before this though? Remind me.....
  6. I’ve not been following today’s thread but Loftus Cheek would improve us and add some dynamism to our midfield
  7. They will spend big in the summer what ever happens but I am seeing no green shoots from this bunch, Trez goal aside, and I am looking at Smith here. He’s a nice guy but if they appointed a bigger European manager, I could get behind that.
  8. What a great story, what a terrific night for him. I thought it wasn’t going to be his night as it was so congested up there and he hardly had a look, but he kept moving and took the chance perfectly. A really lovely guy who deserves all this, he clearly works very hard and is well liked due to his honesty. Nice to have a story other than Jack and Tyrone. Hopefully all of this whirlwind will sink in and he will see he really is a very good player.
  9. “In the land of the blind the one-eyed man is King”
  10. I am creeping back to this view point. The only thing that clouds this is he turned EVERYTHING around last season (but hasn’t kicked on), Mourihno is a top European manager and he is now terrible so it doesn’t necessarily follow.
  11. The decline started before he was “injured”
  12. Really rubbish: Clueless, disjointed, poor performances, players starting based on form shown 12 months ago, total lack of ideas on how to score. We are suddenly so poor in attack it’s unreal, we don’t look like we will score again. Something needs to change, a real shake up is needed.
  13. There’s two types of awful: defensive, fearful, grinding, dreary awful, and; Groundhog Day, disjointed awful. Both awful
  14. Second best player in our squad. He is the real McCoy, a rolls Royce of a player.
  15. Wow, we are actually getting worse. Our second half performance is utter gash.
  16. Based on the first 15 games. The rest has been relegation form. We need progress and momentum. We need another big summer and to be ruthless with our squad.
  17. Villa in need of a goal, in fact two: brings on Davis.
  18. The fact that Sheffield Utd beat us is making me reconsider that we are the second worse team in the league at the moment. Without our purple patch we might be worrying about relegation now.
  19. Penalty?! The games has gone mad. Kane ran away from the ball and jumped on his feet
  20. Wow, Barkley on before the 70 minute mark, Dean must be serious
  21. Cash playing well. Shows how much we missed him and how important to us playing well he is
