  1. His comments were interesting last night - 'We need to take more calm with the ball, more possession and break the press. We were in a good moment for the second half.' So many times we gave possession back to them too easily. I think it was Watkins' comments about Gerrard that he and Ings struggled because they were always competing for long balls played forward. There's a definite and noticeable change in trying to play ourselves up the pitch and beat the press more. Will take time. Also explains why we did so well at the weekend - because Utd/Ronaldo didn't press as much. We need to be better on Sunday because after seeing that performance Brighton are going to press high I would have thought.
  2. For me the key message is our spending and balance sheet is funded via share issue and equity rather than interest bearing loans. We knew it already bc of companies house filings, but it signals interest and intent from the owners.
  3. We’ve got to get at that defence - should be fragile
  4. Anyone travelling to and from London - last train looks to be at 22.00 and bus 22.25 Curious to know whether there are any other options available?
  5. Can anyone give me some advice - I’m mulling over two options Ings, Bruno, Toney > DCL, Ronaldo, ESR (only Ings to DCL would be this GW) Bruno, Ings > Cristiano, Jota
  6. This is it. Sound advice I’ve a reluctance to ‘plan’ transfers within the first 6 weeks or so as naturally there’ll be fires I have to fight and don’t like playing wildcard too early. Clearly Ings wins over the first 3, but DCL over the longer period. Richarlson back boosts DCL’s appeal. But Ollie being absent oddly boosts Ings appeal for me. Too tight to call
  7. Someone convince me to get Ings over DCL I typically set my initial draft up with the first 6-8 weeks in mind I have Buendia btw for coverage
  8. Every team we’ve played has had fitness problems and injuries. It’s a weird year and we need to be better than we were, irrespective of fitness
