Just as a whole, it’s only took a couple of injuries and we look v weak off the bench. Thankfully, there’s been v few instances where we’ve looked out of ideas, yesterday we had 5 defenders on the bench. Compare that to Ipswich who brought on McAteer, Akpom, Azon from the bench and have...

With players like Dabo, if they get multiple muscular injuries and they lose their pace or can’t push themselves without pulling something… you’re finished. His decline was v sudden and it’s a bit sad.

It’s like Lampard came in and swapped the two. The way Eccles plays AM kinda reminds me of how COH could play there. Eccles doesn’t necessarily carry the ball like Grimes or Torp does, but he is comfortable receiving the ball in tight spaces and keeping possession, which is an underrated...

That assumes the prices guarantee a sell out, it doesn’t. Most clubs in this division average less than our away allocation holds so unless you gifted tickets, not every game will sell out. Bristol City’s average away following last season was 1.4k, they don’t travel that well…

Having a roaming winger is pretty normal. Even on Rudoni’s heat map, he gravitates more to the right hand side than the left when he plays AM. Absolute best team will have Rudoni at AM but Lampard has some job finding his absolute best team.

Why the fear factor? Ipswich have scored 3, conceded 2 and 4 points. They’ve only beaten 1 team in the top half (Hull) all season. We’ve both played 7 top half teams, we’ve played 8 with a record of 6-1-1. We are not in danger Gibbo, we are the danger!

Yes, but is there anything Sakamoto can do that Rudoni couldn’t? If Eccles keeps up his form, it’s entirely possible that we’ll see Rudoni at RW more often. With EMC, the closest thing we have to him is MVE and we at least have KKH if MVE gets injured.

EMC is far more important to how we play than Tats imo. Rudoni was able to come in and do a solid job out wide whereas there isn't anyone in the team with the same directness as EMC. A great example here is the Sheff U game at home where we were pretty toothless until we had that directness out...

True, but why leave the squad depth to chance? Right now we’re reliant on Simms right now, maybe Wright is back next week but may need easing back in. As a whole, our bench looks v weak atm, Allen, KKH are the only midfielders/defenders that’ll make an impact. Looking towards Jan, we do need...

He’s being pushed by a lot of the organisations behind Momentum. When this guy makes contact with reality, it’ll hit v hard. He and Eddie Dempsey will say ‘who elected the bond markets?’ Well, don’t lend from them. Polanski struggles whenever he’s unable to repeat pre-rehearsed lines and he...

Gutted for BTA because he’s had such a good season. If we can sign a striker in Jan, we probably should go for it now. Something is probably in the pipeline because why else would be pass up on signing Bamford?

Asante is out for 6 weeks now?!

There’s a reason our whole bench jumped up as soon as the ref waved off the penalty appeal. They all have iPads watching from this type of angle. It’s a penalty and red card and the referee did try to even things up for a little bit. One instance being where a corner was called in the first...

It looked to me he was trying to shoot with his right foot. He had 2 defenders hacking him down and it’s a clear penalty.

Any Cov player for top scorer will get a good price at the bookies. Simms and Thomas are particularly useful at set pieces, which unsurprisingly, we’re top of the charts. I seen yesterday that we’re the first professional team to score 50 goals this season… There’s only one team who’s scored 30...
