Not sure he is the same kind of player as Max. Godden and Walker seem like our best strikers on paper but combinations and how they link are far more important. If we're playing 2 up top there will be enough game time for all of them. What I like about last night is Robins DNA was also not...

I think he should have scored and will be dissapoited not to. But to decribe the miss as shocking is about as balanced as slower than platts player ratings. I have seen many 'shocking' misses in football and sending a high ball volley crashing against the woodwork is not in that bracket.

The type of pass makes a difference. Not all passes are equal, there are killer passes and at the other end of the spectrum safe sideways passes. Great stats however, can you link to where they are published. Thanks

I hope the squads heads are not dropping as quickly as some people in this thread!

Would be comfortable starting Baka and Walker or Max any 2 from 3. My overarching point was Godden has performed a thankless task and has run himself into the ground for 3 games in a row and i feel we need to look at squad management for some games.

This team but Max in for Godden. Not as he is better but Godden has run miles and 3 games in a week risks injury. Bring Godden on at 70 mins.

Walsh is the player we are missing. Hamer has not replaced what he offered the team. Bright light up our team, that made a late charge to the play offs two seasons ago in league one. The step up is clear in terms of quility and he might not make any impact at this level. From an attitude...

We will have to agree to disagree on the definition of a kid in that case. A 23yo in my view is not a kid in the modern game. Look at the England squad picked on merit, it's jammed packed full of kids!! What I agree we have is a young team that is learning the game at this level but 5 shots on...

L1 kids? How many of the starting 11 tonight would you class as 'kids'?? I don't wish to see him go at all. I just wish to see us be more flexible and set up in different ways depending on who we play. Loosing is one thing, but if we just do the same thing and still expect a different outcome...

Robins deserves time and our support considering what he has achieved in a short period of time. Two things that concern me however are his stubbon attitude and his record managing at this level which has led to him being sacked a few times.

My guess would be that when said agents spoke to clubs, they were asking for circa 50k per week. When word gets out the players are considering CCFCs offer of 5k and a pack of rich tea biscuits. Those clubs that scoffed at 50k a week will offer 6 or 7k and a pack of chocolate caramel digestives.

Maybe change 2 up top? We can then rest a a attacking midfield player.

He isn't, Directly. Rose should carry the majority for an inexplicable error of judgement. BUT I mentioned Balden as we have signed 10 players and our team is not stronger than the one that finished last season. Balden is the recruitment lead so needs to take some ownership imo.

Balden is one of the best transfer Guru's in the EFL don't you know!! 🤔. Can't base too much from today as we went down to 10. But despite making many signings our first 11 is concerningly not obviously better than the team last season.

To illustrate the point....Kelly made a big difference when he came on. Had that change not been enforced due to injury, was that change going to be made?

Intresting we have signed 12 players and bar hammer, who is the Walsh replacement, it's the same team that finished last season. We seem to have accumulated a squad of two teams worth of players that are not that far apart in terms of ability. It shows depth, but we might need a marquee signing...

Reminds me of bankers attitude pre 2008. Let's gamble, if it goes well we can privatise and keeep the profit and if we screw up the public purse can bail us out.

Rick Parry is an ex Liverpool employee. Would imagine if this power grab gets accepted, there will be something in it for him. The EFL statement reads like an apology for doing over its members.

Is there enough from what people ppl on here know to report him to the DBS?

I wonder if mentally he is okay? He will not be a made man from his career to date and would be earning a half decent wage at L1 or top end L2 club.
