Ilias Chair and that chap from Notts County and that’s business done in a decent window - 3 quality signings all adding something to our upwardly mobile squad 👌🏻
I’ve never said I don’t like Eccles, and in fact I’ve often said he’s a consistent player and a decent back up / squad member to have - he’s good, but Sheaf is better, and that’s a fact.
My post was merely my opinion that if Torp is to play regularly in midfield he will be in for Eccles - in...
He definitely goes in for Eccles - Sheaf is the better player and he’s not replacing O’Hare
Yes they were effective yesterday but more often than not both Sheaf and Eccles in the team is too defensive, and they are very similar players, with Sheaf having the edge in defence, strength and...
Callum Doyle sat on the bench today for Leicester City doing fuck all, they played Coventry City and got absolutely battered, Callum didn’t get on the pitch but he would’ve probably been completely outclassed by the Coventry attack in any case
some fans sang “it could’ve been you….” which I...
yeah today was definitely bigger than the two semis and final at Wembley last year 🙄 you fucking melt - also how are you struggling to type with your extra fingers?
You were second best today, admit it…..
and the challenge for the penalty was no worse than your keeper’s high boot in the...
I think along with the red and man less, what also made a difference was their manager taking off Mavididi on half time, why on Earth he thought that was a good move I’ll never know but it meant we had nothing really to worry about coming at us with their two attackers off and Cannon not know...
Godden - strong shift
Eccles - strong shift
Van Ewijk was immense, the whole of the back line were to be fair, Sheaf had a great game too I thought
Saka quieter but still great, Palmer ok but could do better, and the subs were ok too although Allen is still a bit lightweight sometimes in my...
I think this was probably one of the first games there’s a proper dilemma re who starts up front, because Godden can score goals, finishes better than most at the club and has just scored twice against a decent (albeit nowhere near the same quality and also in a different setting) team, whereas...
Signing for Brighton imminently, was rumoured to be going to Man City then loaned out to Leicester, probably given their relationship between Pep and Maresca
we have a good relationship with Brighton, hopefully not soured by Ayari, and this guy can play LB / LM / LW, and looks pretty smart...
I had one ages ago at my gym car park - had about 10 or more letters, went from reminders to threatening to ‘ok, we’ll accept x’ or ‘y’ basically reducing the amount and trying to get something from me…
I ignored them all and eventually after about 6 months they foxtrot oscar’d and left me...
hopefully he won’t have lost much fitness, if any, it’ll be more about pace / physicality of the game and how it compares to where he’s played I guess
either way, blood him early and get him used to it
…or change Overgaard to Victor Torp, works the same both ways I guess
“Victor Torp, dancing round defenders
Victor Torp, let’s all sing together,
Victor Torp, he never gives the ball awaaaaay….
1,2,3,4”
there’s surely an argument to give him some time in the cup game given it’s against championship opposition, and really doesn’t matter too much compared to a league game… depending of course on how he trains over the next few weeks
