Real off night but you could sort of sense it, we need to get our starters back and look to put tonight behind us. Bad night, but FL will of learnt a lot about the squad. Too many players out or not at it, outcome was expected.
We need a reaction Tuesday just hope Milan, Torp, Thomas to be fit...
The quicker Rudoni is back the better and having him back is not a problem. Its a good thing FL will welcome. He unlike some will not look at it as who do i drop he will look at it as who i have gained
Mentally it will lift the players and drive a higher standard to keep or gain minutes. Cant...
The longer Bamford is rocking up at Ryton the more chances "its just to gain fitness" as the only reason become less. Both parties are looking at each other and if both like what they see adding an experienced low maintenance Bamford is a no brainer.
He will have to show he fits in and still...
I would imagine the recruiting dept have a few lists to look at. At the start of the season it would of been players that can get you out of the league. Today i think it will be players that not only get you out but can be utilized in the prem.
That is a big switch and a different level of...
All going to depend on fitness of Torp, Thomas and Tatsu. Be nice to get Rudoni on the bench ready for the start sometime in the following week if possible.
FL will use the week well to get the balance of rest, work and information into the players ready for Friday and the season ahead. FL is...
I seem to remember Patto coming to Ryton as a favour to keep fit..... FL might want to see if he has still got something to offer and how he fits into the group....
Just like TV, if you don't like it switch it off or turn it over. Nothing to do with anything other than personal choice....
Like him, loathe him, seriously does it really matter, he has an opinion like us all.....
Its a nice problem to have and a problem any manager in this league would want. He will be given maximum time of recovery and have to come off the bench id assume once ready.
No reason to rush him back just let him heal naturally. Think its shoulder related, but not really any benefit to...
They have a few players that can create some problems for us. But as ling as we play to our normal standard and keep control of the midfield i think we will be ok.
But these worry more than Pompey did..
FL will be watching the game tonight and working out his best side. But i wouldn't be shocked to see Wright and Tatsu come into start and Simms and EMC drop down to the bench and have the same day squad as we had against Pompey.
We seem to be winning without too much stress at the minute and look like we have more gears if needed. Just got to keep going and make tough games like that on paper as easy as we can.
The squad will be needed this season and with Wright rested and Tatsu not starting those two could come back...
Need Wolfy to be the ball player tonight as i assume Pompey will try to sit deep on Grimes. Milan and JDS will be important, as they will be seeing a lot of the ball if we get control of the game.
