The trend that has started of using players' given names rather than surnames is annoying. Though, of course it hardly hurts anyone and people's personal posting style is their own concern. It still annoys me, though.

He has an unnecessary 'r' in his name.

He fits in tactically very well with how we are playing at the moment, and is also captaining the side. He may not start every game from now until the end of the season, but if he stays fit, I can see him playing a big part in it.

There have been some shocking performances this season, though.

I was going on the premise of £3-4m for initial outlay. Not through the roof, but for a club of our means, we have to be getting those sorts of transfers right.

They sold him at the end of the season. He played against us in the playoffs.

Ok! 😂

Not really sure what that has to do with my statement, which is still true; for a modern footballer he has poor technique. He has good games and is in good form at the moment, but he needs to do it far more consistently and over a prolonged period to convince me that he was a good signing for...

Is that Bassette when he was a Football Manager newgen?

The second chance he had? The defender deflected it over, I think. Hard to say if the keeper had it covered.

How come he's got over 100 appearances in good Championships sides, then?

There wasn't hate, just question marks over whether he'd be a good appointment, which were reasonable. He's looking good so far, though. Long may it continue.

A win in Swansea, as I live and breathe.

Also there's a fair chance your train just won't run because the rail companies don't employ enough staff.

The capitalisation suggests this is some sort of acronym. Generally I'm Misinformed Owing to Credulity?

I don't know, he's obviously not good enough for the level we're at (and has been very unlucky with injuries at crucial times, as others have said), but I think he's shown he's got the qualities to be a decent player in L1 or 2 in the right set-up. He's tactically disciplined, has intelligent...
