I'm not sure playing next to Ayala can help much. He was awful last night, slow, giving free kicks away all around the box. Just checked his age expecting him to be pushing Richard Wood and Jagielka, shocked that he's only 31 still.
Only minor negative for me is we should have given Kane 20 minutes or so to help his match fitness, especially with Eccles on a yellow already. He will still be blowing out his arse when we next need him.
Not a red for me, feet weren't off the ground, studs not really up, not really excessive force. Just looked like a clumsy tackle rather than malicious. I'll take it though!
Stand by my earlier hunchback comment. My 90 year old Gran had better posture than Bidwell. He's going to be able to blow himself before he retires, without needing ribs removed.
Mate who sits close to the executive boxes texted me to say he saw Joy with a bottle of tequila in her hand, drinking shots out of Mike Ashley's belly button and licking salt and lemon of his nipples. Anyone at the game confirm?
It's annoying because he always says things 3 seconds after I think it. By then I'm half way through a sentence on here which i then delete in case people just thinking I'm parroting Oggy on here. :D
I assumed Eccles playing high was tactical as Bidwell is a bit more conservative and we turn it into a back 4 if he gets caught high. People were criticising Kane for exactly the same last weekend - too much of a coincidence for me, sure he has been told to be an outlet.
Just think it pushes the whole team a bit closer to each other and makes those passing interchanges/triangles that bit easier. Risk of them getting in behind of course as we have seen a couple of times already.
Also asked the question because you can't always see the full picture on ifollow
