I think with Baka's injury Tavares will be on the bench at the weekend. Young, young side this.

Absolutely. It's a ruthless game & you can't afford to stand still. Robins has historically been very good at this even with popular players. Off the top of my head, players that had done well for us but he rightly deemed surplus: Jack Grimmer, Lee Burge, Tom Davies, Michael Doyle, Zain...

Some Barnsley fans guessed that as the only reason they could see to justify letting him go. The club said they just let him go to bring through their own, younger talent. I don't doubt he's on decent money, decent players usually are. Do I believe we could have got a similar player on less...

Have you not watched us recently? Wilson had earned the right to be No.1 & was keeping Marosi on the bench & James was to replace Kelly & has been starting alongside Sheaf. We've gone over all this before so will leave it there. Most think we've been unfortunate, you think we've been poorly...

Not really. Yes, Bielik's quality is irreplaceable, but despite not paying wages & being under an embargo recently they've found the budget to go out & sign 5 new players - we don't have that luxury. You can also obviously add Sheaf, Thompson, Wilson & McFadz to our unavailable list.

Not necessarily that, more pointing out that if we hadn't brought somebody decent in for that position you'd have even more people moaning. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Do you still think our injury problems aren't that bad?

Refer back to the thread when Kelly got injured, almost everyone that commented here said it was essential we got somebody in for that role. We did exactly that & signed a player of far higher calibre than anyone expected & some are still not happy...

Exactly.

That our strikers have been injured? That he's played nearly double the amount of minutes & taken double the amount of shots as his nearest rival?

Yep, I said this at the weekend when he got stretchered off. Massive blow to them, one of the best players in the league.

He hasn't started a game, getting last 20mins off the bench each time.

We wouldn't want it any other way 😆

Yet we beat them comfortably. Looooong way to go yet, chill.

Not all of them, no and those that are it's practically the first time this season that's been the case. There's 19 games left & I'd argue that's not sustainable & if by some miracle it is that will drag other teams into the mire. Anybody in the bottom half stands a chance of going down, we're...

Have you not heard, all the teams down the bottom are winning every single game except us, even when they play each other - real 6 pointers 🙄

LWB but only off the bench, still has a RB starting ahead of him.

Definitely need to do some work on set pieces. Having looked really useful from them in the opening few games (particularly thinking of QPR when McFadz scored & we could have had many more), we don't truly look threatening from them at all anymore.

Not my stats but looks like it. Whoscored have him at 3, level with Sheaf. Worth noting, Tackle numbers are never as high as you might expect. James Garner was highest for the game with 4. League leader averages 3.1 per game.

I know he thought it was, doesn't mean he's right. Only 1 person is in line with it, he couldn't have been better placed & was absolutely adamant.
