    Yeah he's had a string of good performances. Mostly tidy with the ball, and is excellent when blocking / tackling / winning it back.

    So if you were to summarise his career, you'd say he started as a finisher, and now he's finished as a starter?

    Shooting practice

    Without wanting to diss any of our players individually, it's pretty undeniable that across the entire squad our shooting has been generally poor for quite a while now. If you can play a decent pass over 20 or 30 yards (which they all can) surely you can hit the ball well enough to at least...

    I was on the Kop that day. One of the most embarrassing CCFC performances I've ever seen.

    When I think about Regis, I see a magnificent physique, I see intelligence, selflessness and the skills and control to bring others into play (be it with feet, head or chest). I see sudden explosive power and spectacular finishing. OK it's partly rose-tinted nostalgia, and his most awesome...

    Contracts 2025/26

    Yes everything just inflates. Same amount of good players available but loads more money sloshing around = higher transfer fees and wages. I bet players from 30 years ago can't believe the money to be made now, and it keeps going up.

    Agreed, it's nowhere near enough for those two.

    Discipline and Punish

    It's not just that he hasn't lost effectiveness. To me he's hugely improved. I wasn't really too keen on him before when people were raving about him, but I love the new Gus, and as you say the character transformation is impressive.

    The difference between the kind of games you'll be playing in the Man City or Arsenal youth environment, and the Championship is gigantic. But sooner or later it's necessary to find out whether they can make that step. That's why they go out on loan, and why they will often find it really tough...

    I agree with the others, but Gav's crap tbh

    Bidwell

    True, but he would be twice the player if he could whip a cross in. Mostly just chips it vaguely in the direction of the goalmouth.

    Think your irony detector might be faulty?

    BNC makes some good forward runs, and defends well at times. But weirdly he sometimes looks too knackered to get close enough to his man, even near the start of the game. There’s obviously potential, but maybe he needs a tough pre-season or something to bring out the best in him?

    Jamie Allen not much taller than his mascot LOL

    5 years since Mansfield away. Turning point

    Andreu definitely looked classy.

    Jamie Allen is Guilty of War Crimes

    I couldn't agree more, and in recent weeks the efforts to win on the internet have become more and more ludicrous, with both Palmer and Allen the subject of some pretty far-fetched nonsense. One of them can't run, and the other can only run.
