    EMC is our weakest player out of our regular starters. I'd play BTA or Wright ahead of him in his position every week

    Mason Clark has his moments but 80 per cent of the time he looks like a League One player playing in the Championship.

    The squad can only be 25 unless they are under 21 and under 21"loans count as part of the 25. This squad depth thing is often unthought out nonsense. It is why the squad needs Eccles, Latibeaudiere and Bidwell type players for versatility.

    Some of the greatest teams in the world have been built around one player. It's all relative. It's just like every team has a weakest player. Every squad has a weakest player. Fans always want better players.

    I agree, absolutely fantastic so far and I am enjoying every minute of it. Especially Saturday as we normally manage on the back of a good run of form to come up with a dog shit performance against WBA. So the win against WBA even in isolation was sweet.

    Yes a W L W sequence from now until the end of the season will do us. It sounds easy doesn't it. In my experience football is about great teams and also great fuck ups. We aren't even in December yet so I reserve the right to be cautious. I remember Man City having a six point lead...

    [QUOuscles tso, post: 3531688, member: 9268"] Why would any one accept dropping 2 points? It makes zero sense. We are the best side in this division, we are going for automatic promotion, so why accept dropping points before the game has even kicked off? That is total fucking madness. When...

    10 points sound a lot. But over 30 games. Lose a couple on the bounce and 10 can become 4. Then there is an added pressure that goes with that. When Lampard took over last season we went on an amazing run. No reason why teams below us can't do it. I am loving the season so far but I'm not...

    Whether he could make the step up and be so effective, who knows (intelligent footballers can survive at the highest level). He would certainly be decent within the squad. It would depend what you place around him. Good reading of the game can be worth two or three yards of pace. I don't...

    Simms and Assante

    Simms and Asanti are great. Works in progress. Just like Eccles, Sakamoto and EMC. I think Eccles is really underated as a first team contender. Just as Allen and Latibeaudiere are as squad players.

    Some of his defensive work was superb. He gets forward a lot too and puts good balls into the penalty area. A quality player who never seems to panic.

    We are in a fantastic position, but with 30 games left 10 points isn't a fail safe buffer. One game at a time. Enjoy each game.
