It is not a priority - the defensive record post Lampard could be improved a bit but definitely improved (1.47 goals per game pre Lampard to 1.13 post), and better still it went to 1 per game from Norwich onwards when the Kitching and Thomas partnership was restored.

Our xGA (which you might say is a measure of how many chances we give up) was 52.6 last season, vs 55.9 the season before and 54.7 the 2022/23 play off season. We have two very good centre halfs, a reasonable back up in Lati and somebody in Binks who has lost his way a bit. It is lower...

Somebody threatening to jump off a bridge I believe. Come on saddle it's only a few weeks. (Seriously though, hopefully the person is ok)

Is it sensible to call cold brew coffee Stok, especially given it looks like an Oxo cube with boiled water

Clubs might think they can coach that out of him, though I'm not sure. I think it's an instinctive thing.

Thinking it's totally rad because they've got a goalie with a withered hand

No, football clubs deserve DHGate really

Do the sweat shop workers who make football kits get paid more than the ones who work for the same manufacturers?

I'd keep Lati in all honesty, as boring as it may be his versatility is helpful and he's a very good character and leader on the pitch. Binks though could go, though we'd get a lot more interest in Lati imo. Agree on Bidwell, looks very laboured and given the 3-1-6 stuff seems unsuited to that...

Given the money they got for Berger, I doubt it'll be anywhere near that

Burning down a building creates genuine and known risk to life.

Pretty clear from the clips and the KKH goal that we're adopting that 3-2-5 or 3-1-6 formation when looking to play forward, full backs or wingers inverting.

Even then it's a rehabilitation period. With O'Hare's ACL it was 10 months before he made an appearance from the bench and then he didn't start a game until December 2023 having been injured on Boxing Day 2022. Dovin was injured at the end of March, so 10 months brings you to the end of January...

No coincidence that our great winning run happened at the same time that Dovin found form. Likewise, to be fair to Collins, in the 23/24 season our good run came at the same time that he was in good form.

I thought that was him carrying a gigantic Bells whisky bottle down Burnaby Road, fair play Dougie

I don't understand this at all, Haji has contributed more goals and assists over the past two seasons than anybody else, he's one of the biggest goal threats in the league and our best forward by some distance. BTA is a hard worker but just does not fit into the system we play, he should be...

Some ridiculously negative takes on here from a friendly. The player who effectively made the first goal written off already.

More people were killed in terror attacks on the UK mainland in the 10 years following the Terrorism Act than the preceding 10 years. I don't know why somebody as facile as you comes on to this thread. You are somebody who has said before "they're all the same" aren't you?

The guaranteed arrival of dismal rainy weather every time the kids break up for summer

The boxing day one was the real disaster, part of the bottoming out phase we went through from November 2016 to February 2017 when Robins came back. I think the L2 though technically lower in the pyramid was not as low as that season and some of the embarrassing defeats.
