I’m not sure how that’s relevant tbh, he's not actually said anything so most people don’t know, and those that do have only heard rumours. Plus it might benefit him to be out of the firing line.

If we lose to Preston and QPR I think we need to change I’m afraid.

Yeah mate let’s sell the forwards that scored almost 40 goals last season for £9m combined, genius you are.

Not too much, result was neither here or there really, my bigger concern was the total lack of performance, especially first half.

I am honestly baffled by the posters blaming overall player quality, forwards, effort levels etc. Watching this team it seems abundantly clear to me that the issue is fundamentally tactical.

…there’s nothing “going on”? He’s 19 with barely any professional experience, and none at this level. He looked good vs spurs and that’s about it. Let’s remember he’s not actually scored a goal yet.

He would get sacked before that came to pass. There won’t be a mutiny if he’s got a £40m squad sitting in the relegation zone.

Simms and Wright scored almost 20 goals each last season. That’s not a waste.

Injured. But yea him in for Lati when fit. Not a perfect fit for Wright no but on current evidence I’d still probably play him there ahead of EMC.

On current availability Dovin Lati Thomas Kitching Dasilva MVE Sheaf Eccles Wright Simms BTA 44 fooking 2, play as direct as possible Could also swap some players around to get Rudoni or EMC in.

Kitching didn’t do great but he’s not solely responsible. Watch it back, our shape is terrible and we were in trouble as soon as we lost the first header. Wilson could’ve done a lot better on the shot.

Just seen this angle from behind the goal. What is he doing?

Similar graph but comparing to our previous poor starts - next 5 games is where we've generally picked up some form. If we maintained our current PPG until the 15 games mark it would be our worst start since we returned to the championship.

Irrelevant, shouldn't be slagging off your teammates behind their backs

would be disappointing if Eccles was talking about his teammates like this

Again, what is more likely? The entire squad's technical ability has fallen off a cliff over the summer? Or we're not implementing a consistent, effective tactical system, which means players don't know where their options will be when they receive the ball, so they're constantly having to...

Overpaying or not is a secondary question to whether we should've signed him in the first place. I like him. But don't think the system is suiting him, we seem to have reverted to quite a rigid 4231 where he is playing as a classic 10, like O'Hare did - I think he'd be better in a flatter/more...

Because he was playing in L1 the season before we signed him. If you're making a point that we should've got Rudoni cheaper because Hudds got relegated, then fair enough that's valid. If you're trying to make a point about us signing players based on L1 performances that obviously isn't valid.

Haji has 3 goals playing for a crap team, no idea why he's taking so much criticism. Simms has fallen of a cliff though, but doesn't get any service. I never want to see us play the same 5atb system used in 22/23, it's so boring without Vik and Hamer to carry the attacking output.
