    Simms + Wright = ?

    There is something to be said about the midfield and their ability to create chances in open play. If we have Hamer in our team, most of our draws will most likely have been wins and we’re in a far better place.

    Signs are looking good

    Why do you think that is? Kelly and Eccles is a pretty weak partnership. Good defensively but going forwards they don’t really offer much. Ayari too was missing the final touches too today. The midfield has to be improved in January.

    Match Thread Hull (A) Friday 15th September

    Same old issues, we’re not creating chances in open play and the issues stem in midfield. A decent point nonetheless even though it’s frustrating to lose another lead.

    QPR Away

    I wanted to get two tickets together but was unable to in the Gold tier. Is there a way to return the ticket and repurchase them? I thought we’d sold out already and my brother has 860 points to my 910 so we had different windows.

    Preseason is often the hardest part of the season in terms of training intensity. A few days to unwind and relax will do them no harm, it’s a long old season.

    Ellis Simms Going Forward

    He’s in competition with Godden and Wright for a starting berth. So he won’t be an impact sun if he takes his chances. It’s only 5 games in, nothing is set in stone and plenty will change.

    Really? They’re number 4, before the calamitous OG stopped 2 guilt edge chances of ours. With Wright’s chance, the GK didn’t save it, it was a block from their number 4.

    Our midfield - do we have problems?

    I wonder what your thoughts were on the team this time last season? We looked far from being a top 6 team then too. This season, we’ve played Leicester, Middlesborough, Swansea, Sunderland and Watford. Lost once, and with a bit more luck could’ve won 2 or 3 more of those games. Things take...

    Match Thread Watford (h)

    It’s a long season and there’s not much value in evaluating teams at this moment. 10 games in is a decent barometer. Why people are panicking is beyond me. MR has been pretty open saying how it’s been a difficult window and wanted to get players in early to work with them. Generally, we start...

    Match Thread Watford (h)

    Watford are a good side and a draw is a respectable result. We were the better team in the first half and they were the better team in the second half. We’re making progress, believe it or not.

    Wobbly back 3

    That and defensively, both teams were vulnerable today and had bad games as a while. These kind of games just happen, otherwise the defence has been solid.

    Ratings v watford

    It looked setup for Sakamoto to play in the box tbf, I thought Godden was going to come off before scoring the equaliser. A great finish and proving why he’s in the team but otherwise had a tough day at the office.

    Ratings v watford

    He will be eased into the team, he’s shown some good quality on the ball. I like Eccles and feel like he can get unfair stick at times, but he’s not likely to be a starting calibre top 6 CM (in a two man CM unit) at this stage of his career.

    Ratings v watford

    Ayari shown today that he can play in that ‘8’ role. He did have some really classy moments on the ball.

    Wobbly back 3

    Thomas was only at fault for 3rd and final goal. Lati got beat for their first and for the second goal, we got caught out when McFadz pressed way beyond his position causing Lati and Thomas to collapse in to give Martins the space needed. A like for like situation happened where two players...

    McFadz was suspect for that goal, rushed up, caught in no man’s land and the rest of the defence is covering him. Great finish from Martins.

    Match Thread Watford (h)

    We’ve been the better team and now we’ve pegged this one back, this game is winnable. Wright is having a bit of a break out game, just needs that final touch. Likewise with Palmer. Shout out to van Ewjik too! Really positive performance and a great free kick. MOTM so far is Sheaf, he’s been...

    Probably just player numbers there. You could see Wilson’s 13 and Allen’s 8 in the background when he was doing his photoshoot.

    Transfer targets

    I wouldn’t put it past Robins to start Lati in midfield after the international break. The most likely candidate to miss out would be Eccles. We’ve got options, we can play 3-4-1-2, 3-4-2-1 or even 5-3-2. It does seem Ayari is viewed as a player who can play CM as well as AM. I’d have liked...

    Overall, it’s fair to say that the consensus on here is that we got good value for both Hamer and Gyokeres. Two big losses for sure. From Kitching’s interview, we made contact with him shortly after Wembley. It’s clear he’s had his head turned, Barnsley fans feel that and with some bad...
