Really hope you’re right 🤞

Agreed. We only want to buy the right player and they come at a cost - we haven’t that much cash!

Our pressing has dropped off recently. Maybe not surprising as it must be very hard to do over a long period with a smaller squad. That was key to our great start.

If we play Lati it’s has to be in a back 3. Which might have been a good thing last night. 💯 about the chemistry.

The Woolf and KKH are not bad players - they just haven’t had enough starts to get into the rhythm of the team yet. Brau must be gutted he didn’t get a game. If MVE was available then maybe KKH switches to LB. Doug and Frank know we need another midfielder - the Sheaf cash was great but...

I think that’s definitely the case. Nervousness from some and and expectation from others seems to have reduced the atmosphere. Cov as underdogs is our comfortable position and the passion comes with it!

If anything our valuation of Thomas probably went up after tonight!

I’m talking about the formation rather than individuals. You’re correct probably not possible - it’s a worry that with one injured CB we cannot play 5ATB. It was obvious early on we lose tonight.

Lati and Perry on the bench. I’m not hanging my hat on this - just would have been interesting to have 3 CBs nullifying their only focal point.

I agree he was our best player. Maybe 5-2-3. But the point is we lost.

It’s a fair point. But lati was on the bench so fit I assume. Or Perry possibly? Just felt like a Pompey away type game. It was all about them pumping crosses in to the big lad. Clog up the middle of the park and leave it to BTA and Simms to do it up top. (Again hindsight a wonderful thing!)

Spot on. Hindsight I know. But 5 at the back and 2 up top probably a better option tonight.

The scary Zulus have turned into the pathetic LooLoo’s

That was a great away day…. Carsley bullet header. Hartson was on fire. Away end had a foot of stagnant water - was soaked 😂

Snap!

I expected more also. Wonder if the ground purchase was not planned (though surely that takes more time to sort the funding), and thus the transfer kitty was reduced. Sheaf however I would also assume wasn’t planned this window which would contradict the above a little. Which just makes me...

5-2-3 might be a plan B.

To be fair it must be quality reading these pages when you’re on the inside 😂

If it’s just the Wolf so be it. DK and FL will only want to improve the squad so if the right player isn’t available that’s that. Does the loan window shut at 7pm also?

I actually went to see PSV last weekend… would have been weird to see Hamer play for them if I’d delayed it a little!
