From what I've read and seen Robins was a factor in his signing (both in terms of Robins wanting him and BTA wanting to play for him). Now he's gone he may well be willing to leave. I'm not saying get rid at all costs like Collins or Dasilva, just if we could get a decent fee and not lose out...

We're not getting Guiu ffs, he's made first team apps for Chelsea and Barcelona, if they wanted to loan him out they'd easily have top flight clubs interested.

Wright isn't gonna play on the right. Don't see how he'd be effective without being able to cut in on his strong foot. Our strongest front 3 right now is EMC - Wright - Sakamoto, assuming Wright plays well in the centre of a 3. If not, Wright - Simms - Saka. BTA is just never gonna play...

He barely starts right now? Lampard obviously wants to play 4231, where does that leave BTA? Arguably 4th choice at striker (behind Simms, Wright & Bassette). He's looked fairly awkward on the wings, would be 3rd choice on the left anyway and you'd hope we'll bring in a RW or Raphael steps up...

You'd sell Eccles for £1m? Absolutely ridiculous take.

Depends what you mean by "on the ball" Thomas is far more comfortable with the ball at his feet. Lati hates getting pressured. Distribution wise Lati loses the ball less, but generally plays much safer passes. Thomas leads him in pretty much all the ball progression stats. Lati is probably a...

He's better on the ball than Lati. He tries riskier passes and makes the occasional unforced error but he's still better

Lati is godawful on the ball. Seriously doubting your analysis now.

It's not for the want of trying though is it, he always puts effort in. I think the celebration was just because he's not had much to celebrate, we didn't win either of the games he scored in and he's only scored 2. I do think it's a bit strange that he's somehow becoming a cult hero but he's...

Luton only signed him in the summer and he's played pretty regularly? Why would they loan him to us.

Odd comment. He seems focused on his football?

Parker is trying to collect the slowest footballers in the league so he can make his team even more boring to watch

Shelvey is off to Burnley right? Not Vale.

Eh?

You should always arrange penalty takers in order of competence. “Saving” a good taker for the 5th is a poor strategy, since they may not even get to take. See: Ronaldo at that Spain/Portugal shootout in the euros once.

Yeah because we really need another central striker

Why was Bidwell 2nd btw. Ridiculous choice

There were two weeks between the Sunderland and Sheff Utd games. And then another 3 days before Burnley. And Dovin was on the bench for the latter two. Surely he was fit. I'm just saying, I think Lampard would have stuck with whoever was starting to begin with. And I can understand not...

I’m not trying to “create a meme” Robins didn’t pick Collins, it’s not on him. Thought dropping Dovin was a mistake at the time and still do. Don’t think Lampard has done anything particularly wrong with keeper selection yet, it was just awkward that Collins ended up playing.

Didn’t say it was genius? It was a mistake to pick Collins, but an understandable one since he’d been playing. Then having picked him it’s fair to give him a chance. So I don’t hold any of it against Lampard.
