    Meltdown thread (in advance)

    That new striker looks shit based on that 5 min sub appearance. Rochdale fans were right, it's Baka all over again. Why are we wasting precious budget when we needed a better striker now?

    Match Thread Coventry v Watford

    The 2nd half against Forest was our entire season in a nutshell. Concede an avoidable goal, have 20 crosses to no-one and not look like actually scoring despite a fair share of possession. Wouldn't be surprised if we have the worst 'cross to goal ratio' in the league. Going back to 3-5-2 as we...

    U23’s v Wigan

    I thought Morgan Williams played very well in that single League 1 match he played in, vs Fleetwood in 2019. Now on the bench in what is virtually an U18 side. I know he's been injured, but wonder what else has stunted his development?

    Really fear for this one. Deeney is going to have a field day with our timid, naive centre backs and Sarr and Hughes will keep our wingbacks pinned back. Midfield battle is going to be crucial. Hamer and James are going to have be bang on top of their game if we are going to get anything from...

    DaCosta

    I didn't think he was as great as people made him out to be. They were very favourable circumstances for him and don't think he was in control of a thing he did ball at feet. Only a couple of the crosses were actually decent too, half the time he was just kicking it as hard as he could into the box.

    Only we would play a short free kick from 45 yards out in the 100th minute of a game when losing.

    It's difficult to have movement up front when a team are sitting as deep as Forest are but you've got to try and work the centre backs laterally or drop 5 yards and then make a run, then back on the shoulder. These 2 were just stood there waiting.

    Just go 2 at the back and throw Osti up front. No point in all these crosses with baka and Biamou there.

    Jesus, our 2 strikers sat on their arses while we move the ball left and right. 0 movement. Terrible. One of them has to try and disrupt their back 4 there.

    There's a bobbly late equaliser in this, i can feel it.

    Hope we win a 97th minute penalty to equalise.

    Our defence need to realise these are not the conditions for lobbing 15 yard passes into midfield.

    Midfield 3 have got a little flat and a little deep for me in this game. Not sure how much value the wide front men are going to bring in these conditions either. They need to play a little deeper so the width comes a bit deeper on the pitch and then central midfield can step up a little higher...

    If he cuts anything it should be that man bun.

    Thought it was fairly widely accepted that Bremang isn't going to develop to the level we need. If he's released and this lad takes over as number 9 in the U23s with a higher potential and a couple of seasons to develop there, then it's a good deal, surely?

    Well the 2nd thing I read was that Bayern Munich were putting in a sell on clause!

    First thing I read was 'a loan deal with an obligation to buy for 15 million Euros'. Thought we'd been taken over for a minute!

    Cringey football terms deserving of a temporary ban

    Not a term but that 'making a heart with your fingers' goal celebration makes me want to 2 foot whoever does it.
