  1. I really enjoyed the game. Missed the first 10 minutes looking for a pub in Stratford that shows football. Thought, as they were at villa, that Utd are a good strong physical team, but we have that touch of class. We could have lost it, and we will lose games before the end of the season. But, whether Bruce is popular or not, he is changing the mentality of a team, we would have lost that in the prem. we would have lost it last season, we would have drawn it at the start of this season. We have momentum, not a great team, but momentum could get us there.
  2. Jesus. Where's the luck? We didn't play well but Utd are a good team at home. We scored they didn't. We win they don't.
  3. Ifs and buts. couldnt disagree more, 1 out of that back 5 is premier league quality 1 possibly 2 of the midfielders none of the front 4
  4. Gil, Amavi, Westwood, Bacuna, Cissokho, Kozak & Sanchez for me are all Premier League quality. possibly the most ridiculous post I've ever seen. I appreciate that we all have different views but........... So the team that got us relegated from the premier league is premier league quality. seriously?
  5. One of my mates is a season ticket blue nose. Even now he says the consensus was that rowett was terrible. Was scraping 1-0s with shocking football.
  6. Never in trouble, felt the energy that thor gave us in a cdm role made a massive difference. Tackling instead of trying to intercept. Forest are not a bad team.
  7. An appalling player. Hasn't even got close to being in a championship team. Will run down his contract and go to china in 18 months. If I could add a clip it would be Obama dropping the mike. Can't believe there's still a thread on him.shows the minefield xia inherited. Aaaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhh.
  8. Getting worse and worse each time I see him. Could barely stand up yesterday.
  9. Thought he was my motm. Continually wanted the ball, and always finds space on the edge of the box. He's not a number 10, just a good attacking mid. Unfortunately when onomah is beside you, you're screwed.
  10. Really impressed me. Not ready to be starting games regularly, but should be coming on every week as a sub to build up game time. Would look to see him in a central role - felt he was played too wide yesterday.
  11. Looks comfortable on the ball, would agree not a cb. Needs to be playing to improve.
  12. We need a positive result to keep the Bristol feel good factor going. But we can't flog Adomah, etc to death, or risk injury to Grealish, Chester etc. Has to be a strong bench, when in likelihood a lot of the starters are coming back from injury or not played 90 minutes against a league team.
  13. Great point. great analogy. Dont judge the fans until you've been hat we've been through.
  14. Would agree, he runs side to side, and hourihane has too be where he isn't. At least jedi goes to the ball.
  15. Steer Bree. de Laet. Elphick. Taylor Thor Whelan. green Ohare RHM. Hogan Keep Davis, Grealish Terry on bench if we need them.
  16. I don't want us to sign anyone unless they are "guaranteed" a first team place. We've a massive squad, we need to sign the right players or no one. I'm more eager to clear out the ones who clearly aren't wanted or needed RMc. Bunn, Richards, gabby , de laet . I know now it won't happen, but a good window might be a more balanced squad. Id bid for Flint from last night, he's a beast, and would make Johnson cry.
  17. Totally agree. Has to cover for whelan because whelan doesn't really tackle. Has more freedom to go forward with Jedi. Thought he was full of energy and offered attacking threat.
  18. Think Peterborough may be his first start. Can see Hogan Green and Rhm with O'hare behind.
  19. I like the fact he was on hand for every goal - wasn't hiding. As injuries take their toll on other teams he will score more.
  20. Thought Grealish was outstanding. Snoddy played for a whole game. Thought Hourihane was everywhere. Jedi proved why we don't need Whelan. A very happy journey back to sunny Stratford.
  21. If he reverts to type and starts whelan and Jedi it's a loss. I'd like to see RHM just for the pace. We can't afford to lose this.
  22. Don't want to turn this into a Bruce / poor investment thread. But now the transfer window is open do we have anyone that anyone else would genuinely want to sign?(not loan players). Premiership - can't think of anyone who might move up - grealish? championship - Hutton perhaps - though teams will wait for summer. Bree / de Laet , Thor, Gardner, Hogan (cut price). It really does make you think about what we spend our money on - and this isn't a manager thing - it's a 5/6 year club failing.
  23. To get promoted you need goals from all over, probably 2 players approaching 20. Think Albert is our second player, to really push on we need that first choice centre forward. It's not Davis, hogan or McCormack or this season kodjia. Doesn't make him a bad player just not the main centre forward we need.
  24. Think Johnstone is solid, no more, may well develop his aerial ability as de gea did. More annoyed as I bought my 9 year old a goalie top 3 weeks ago with Johnstone on the back. Goes well with his brothers Tishbola one !
