No Sakamoto? Maybe we sold him on the sly.

Is BTA checking for his own pulse there?

Another 90 minutes of seeing BTA run around a lot and lose the ball

Oooh an insult , I'm hurt

We have 3 left backs in the squad and Rapha on the bench , why would we play KKH out of position ?

Bold move to drop your top scorer though.

What do you think BTA will do there?

Shin it out of play

We have BTA Rw And you don’t think we need more attackers?

I didn't say that. I've said wouldn't mind another winger

But he can play across front 3. This is an example of a good squad imo not a reason to panic

He's been frustrating this season I won't deny that but he's a good player on his day. Even Vs Luton he did that lovely cross for Simms. I hope he has a good game today

Cause he can play there and he’s a better player than the players we have. Stats from season before also, he can play LB or RM no issue

Those optics look shit........................score a goal, get dropped to the bench!!!!! Our highest (and only ) goalscorer don't even get a start, Frank must really have a downer on Simms, Robins did the same sort of thing iirc why do we shackle ourselves like this all the time, just go and WIN a game going for it ffs

He did miss another 5 great chances at least 2 sitters.

He's started one game for us and he's a better player than our right wing options and all our left backs .
Ok

shmmeee · 2025-08-16T12:03:05+0100

Can’t wait for the CWR theories on why Tats is missing today.

AFCCOVENTRY · 2025-08-16T12:03:38+0100

Rudoni, Thomas and MVE we thought were sold but it’s Tatsu

9 minutes is too long

You said you were surprised to see people asking for new forwards?

shmmeee · 2025-08-16T12:04:20+0100

Every team practices with seven players in a circle keeping the ball but never try it in a game…

No Saka is a worry. Who else will turn the left back 3 times so the CBs can get back into position?

We definitely need another CAM , maybe KKH can play there as well 🫣

so?? at least he was there, which is more than Haji and BTA have been, just give him a run of games to get sharpness up he looked well up for it against Luton. we always put ourselves on the back foot

It is weird he's dropped, he's obviously a confidence player

I think it was Haji with the assist was it not?

One more overhit cross and we owe Oostende £1m

it was, but Wright was in the centre to score, cos it was going wide.

Ok

You don’t win all 3 end of season trophies at Preston if you aren’t that good.

Playing one game for us has nothing to do with it.

This idea that KKH was a waste of a signing if MVE stays is hilarious... As if Lampard would not have realised that there was a chance MVE might not go! Complete tosh. The real risk was last season when we had only Lati (gulp) as genuine back up if MVE got injured.

CovInEssex · 2025-08-16T12:09:15+0100

We will win today

Was really looking forward to seeing the new strip but it looks very pink on ifollow

SomersetSB · 2025-08-16T12:09:58+0100

Bobby Thomas to score it’s in the stars!!

Wright is a very intelligent player, he works around Simmo's limitations and adapts very quickly.

Yeah based on the announced team that's all.

Seemed a odd time to worry about new signings when we have a very attacking lineup and showing squad depth at same time

It’s attacking with square pegs in round holes

It is Orange perhaps you need to change your colour settings on your TV.
