Eccles Simms and BTA should be/are good championship players. Game was done anyway, we threw in the towel at 3-1.

Genuinely believe if Dovin & Bidwell were playing we win today. We have issues but results are making things look worse than they are.

First and third goals are entirely on Collins, he was already statistically the league's worst keeper by some margin prior to today and will look even worse after this. The performance level at 3/4-1 was inexcusable, but it's not hard to see why when you have one or two players that completely...

Just watched the highlights back. Collins should never play for the club again. And ideally Dasilva too.

First 15 mins we we all over them, should have been 2-0 up and were knocking it around nicely. Equaliser deflated us and then as soon as it went 2 & 3-1 we capitulated. When we are good we can compete with anyone in the league but we struggle to even manage that for 20 minutes a game at the...

Yeah NYD game should be at least 20, don't think we took many last year. In general they should probably be a bit more flexible with the points system to encourage attendances, could do offers like 50 pts for Boro away. And games like WBA should be 0 points.

Wright should be eased back in - if EMC is having a good game he can come on at striker and see what that combination is like for 20/30 minutes. It's good to have options. I'd like to see Simms get a few starts before then, Bassette is not justifying his place. It does feel like he's been...

Simms RW :ROFLMAO:

Who’s paying 25m for a 27 yo who hasn’t even managed 20 goals in the championship?

football league world is absolute gutter shite

It is. Who’s the better finisher? A player who had 100 xg and scored 90 or a player who had 10 xg and scored 1? It’s obviously the first one, but since this stat is a simple subtraction it will rank the first guy “worse”.

Or Lampard wants the players champions league fit, not just premier league! suuuuper Frankie Lampard

McGoldrick is also on there. Also statistically flawed, this punishes poor finishers who are great at getting chances. % of xg converted would probably be a better stat.

I mean if the manager has to specifically state he'll train "with the first team" it's not a great sign is it.

From all accounts Raphael was nowhere near ready to play regularly in the Championship, injury or not. And Tavares has barely played in the league. Anyway.

Because he's played out of position a lot. It's not a double standard, me calling him a miss is less about his ability and more the decision to sign him - that £2.5m would have been better spent on an actual winger to compete with Sakamoto.

No, he's second choice. Which is fine, you need 2 players for every position. You don't need a 4th choice striker when we only play with 1.

BTA is looking like a miss because he doesn't have a place in the squad. Right now he might even be 4th choice in his favoured position.

He's gone in the summer surely

It's stupid to make a verdict on signings before we've even hit Jan. EMC made this thread look silly on Saturday. He, Rudoni & Bassette could go on to be good/great signings for us. BTA just hasn't played enough in his preferred position, I'm still not sure what the logic in signing him was...
