For what it’s worth, we seem to have a few players who lack composure in front of goal; not necessarily even the bad performers, but players like Rudoni, BTA, Eccles have squandered chances and they all have a history of doing so, for us and their previous clubs.

Okay then Gary, explain your counter argument using a lovely detailed explanation with stats like the OP did and I then will listen…

He gets at least another 10 games for me. Need to see some kind of improvement and continuity with the performances / style of play in that time though.

I would say the main one for me was rotating the defence immediately - too early on in the season. Was a little impatient and tbh not what he usually does. Should have had a settled back line and given them a bit more leeway in the early games. At the moment it’s a different CB pairing nearly...

This is what Kasey Palmers agent said to Hull…

It’s a low bar 😉 Hope you cleaned up after yourself

Can’t watch or listen today. Wisely going to rely on the match thread rather than anywhere else to get accurate updates on how we’re playing…

Didn’t we score two in one game from Eccles corners or did I imagine that? Let’s be honest though, our corners are better now…

He’s been good and his progression the past couple of seasons has been impressive. He is a good defensive mid; he is no more than that and I think that’s why some don’t rate him. But he does that job well and has a brilliant engine. Never likely to score goals or do particularly fancy stuff...

If we win this I’m booking my Wembley hotel.

Loved the fact that immediately after that turn where he was fouled, he was holding an imaginary card at the ref and Eccles had to pull him away for being naughty. It should have been a yellow for sure.

I think that’s a fair criticism and I think its quite apparent what he is lacking. Good player within the right system and alongside the right players. Two goals already this season. He will get more through sheer effort. Seems a top athlete. His composure for the goal took me by surprise, so...

Id actually like to see some posts. Any spreadsheet people help me out?! Im unsure if he’ll be ‘amazing’ for us, but he’s getting in the right positions and I still think he’ll get 5 goals minimum this season. Is that enough? Not sure. He doesn’t seem to be the kind of wide player that runs at...

Top players miss chances like that all of the time. You do make your own luck in football, which is why I think him getting on the end of crosses at the far post and getting beyond the last man time and time again, suggests he’s going to eventually score a few goals; even by accident!

Based on the Man Utd game, or anything else? EMC been unlucky to not have scored three goals so far this season. He will come good I think.

On the left?

The Hound can’t be playing 90+ minutes every game. It’s good to have two very different style players for one position.

He’s been much better on the left and makes some great runs in behind. Most of what he’s trying to score are tap ins and just haven’t quite worked out yet. Think he’ll score a few goals this season. Less than 10, but above 5 is my guess.

Still early days for me, but looks a prospect. His attitude and desire seem great, could see him being a little impetuous at times and potentially getting himself sent off. Agree with the poster saying how the game was set-up for him to do well with the Spurs high line. The weight of his pass...
