I thought he was. Certainly for someone in the centre of things. He looks ponderous when on the ball for me. Too slow of thought.

Agree. Torp has been awful so far. At least Allen is involved.

Got to be Wright Simms Saka on Friday with midfield of Eccles, Allen, Rudoni. For me Torp has been 100% anonymous in both games so far.

As a complete aside I need to know which of the coaching staff is responsible for insisting on the apparently compulsory trot out weaving between four discs at the start of the second half.

Solid 6 and 7’s. Stand outs were Eccles, Kitching, Wilson and JTA just for pure work rate. All the subs did well. But surely Robins must know now that with Thomas & Lati in the same back four we can’t pass out from the back.

A win. A clean sheet. Thought Wilson, Kitching, Eccles and BTA plus the subs were all good. We were actually turning the tide just before the subs. Palmer is an enigma. Good through ball for the goal offset by over complication in 4-5 other promising attacks. That’s why he’s a championship...

Positives: Wilson, Eccles, Wright. Negatives: Lati, Thomas. Lessons: 1) Dont play out past the press via Thomas 2) If Latibeaudiere is to play it must only ever, ever be at CD.

Don’t disagree. Is he worth the money quoted though essentially as a risk buy.

Thought he looked fine. Will take time to form understandings with the back 4 but he’s good with the ball and made a couple of good saves.

Players like Vik do? Players that are completely unproven in the Prem? The Portuguese top flight is not a barometer of top level ability.

Let’s not forget the prem teams and their owners are huge panic mongers. A couple of games without goals before the end of August and someone will get the wallet out.

Firstly it’s obvious we are trying to buy a midfielder. Secondly I really don’t get the “sell Sheaf, rebuild the midfield”. If we sell Sheaf what do we need? Two Sheaf’s with the money we got for selling one. Not saying he won’t go but by far the best outcome for us us to keep him and complete...

Must admit Madsen has been disappointing so far. Never looked like he could make a difference v Stoke……..what do you mean he hasn’t signed yet.

Oh come on. You threw EMC in by mistake. He can’t have a meaningful impact in an hour. Or at least not one that can be judged.

After Rudoni we have no worries in terms of options. Allen and Torp can play there - probably very well.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Hamer bounced around the yo-yo clubs for a while. A shame as he’s potentially better than that.

Doesn’t have to be for us. I’ve seen a lot of Rudoni.

Rudoni v O’Hare. No contest. Rudoni is the better player.

I guess for me the point is we’re in a different position now. For a long time our summers were replacing loans and the one or two saleable assets we had. “Is our starting 11 better” was a perfectly reasonable question. We’ve moved on now. A classic example is Simms. Are we likely to buy a...

Has it? Sheaf plays v Stoke and it’s likely no one mentions the midfield. We sold Gyokeres and bought in Wright and Simms. Thomas-Asante for Godden. People were crying out for depth behind Sakamoto last year and we’ve signed Mason-Clark. If the biggest criticism some have us that we’ve signed...
