Yes everything just inflates. Same amount of good players available but loads more money sloshing around = higher transfer fees and wages. I bet players from 30 years ago can't believe the money to be made now, and it keeps going up.

Agreed, it's nowhere near enough for those two.

It's not just that he hasn't lost effectiveness. To me he's hugely improved. I wasn't really too keen on him before when people were raving about him, but I love the new Gus, and as you say the character transformation is impressive.

Tell that to Bill Glazier

The difference between the kind of games you'll be playing in the Man City or Arsenal youth environment, and the Championship is gigantic. But sooner or later it's necessary to find out whether they can make that step. That's why they go out on loan, and why they will often find it really tough...

I agree with the others, but Gav's crap tbh

True, but he would be twice the player if he could whip a cross in. Mostly just chips it vaguely in the direction of the goalmouth.

Think your irony detector might be faulty?

BNC makes some good forward runs, and defends well at times. But weirdly he sometimes looks too knackered to get close enough to his man, even near the start of the game. There’s obviously potential, but maybe he needs a tough pre-season or something to bring out the best in him?

Eccles tremendous again today

It was pretty bad!

Jamie Allen not much taller than his mascot LOL

Andreu definitely looked classy.

I couldn't agree more, and in recent weeks the efforts to win on the internet have become more and more ludicrous, with both Palmer and Allen the subject of some pretty far-fetched nonsense. One of them can't run, and the other can only run.

Just a mention for Eccles - I think Robins will have been delighted with his performance today, very good with and without the ball.

I agree, yet you casually dropped in a reference to Palmer in response to Allen's scoring stats.

FFS all these Allen vs Palmer arguments, trying to score points on a forum. If we play two AMs and you want two Jamie Allens, you’re mad. And if you want to play two Kasey Palmers you’re mad as well. I’m quite happy to have them both on the pitch.

It's not the majority though is it? Most people recognise his qualities, quite a few see limitations and think we could sign better, and only a small vociferous minority keep slagging him off.

Interesting take on the formation from the BBC. Maybe we should try it?

You caught one of the bricks that went through the City coach windows, and returned it with interest?
