Rudoni and Esse switching is mental too. Its Ease you want running at full backs not Rudoni.

As would I, but it needs to happen. Whole team look knackered again. What’s happened to our superior fitness.

I know everyone loves the fancy feet, but Esse needs to come off soon. Bit of a passenger atm. Still maintain we change all 4 at 60 minutes.

Yea all the Onyeka talk. But we’re crying out for a Grimes equivalent.

Also, change the front 4 on 60 minutes if nothing has changed. No point having depth and not using it.

The Lampard - Neil verbal spat was a highlight of the first half.

Defence look vulnerable, but would you want to be a full back in our team. Absolutely zero protection but still expected to bomb forward, and then recover.

Front four all hiding since they scored.

Yep, bad mistake from JDS. But if thats all you take/remember from his first half performances, then you’re clueless to how important he is to the way we play.

In the minority but that’s poor from Wright. He was ahead of the defender when he received the ball!!

Feel for Simms tbh. One good 20 minute cameo gets Wright a start?! In more important news / for anyone who cares - secret compartment FTW! Laptop in with time for a pint!

Train already delayed so I think I’m going to have to risk the laptop in my bag. I do have a secret compartment so it depends if they just look inside or actually scan….. Team wise, I’d start the same knowing you can swap EMC, Esse, Rudoni, Simms and Torp at 60/70 minutes.

Also random slightly panicked thought; I am going to have my work bag with a laptop in. Am I going to be allowed to bring that in?! Anyone tried before?

It’s nice to be really looking forward to games. It doesn’t feel that many years ago I was only going out of routine / it was always something I’d done with my Dad - and the match itself was an afterthought, and often something to try and forget. Albeit I’m away with work and relying on trains...

Ah! Which network is it for? I did have one but it stopped working on Saturday….

Ah, have I missed a thread somewhere?!

Finally caught up on this thread. What an absolute rollercoaster which on the whole reflects the game, tension and the switch from a very poor first half to a much improved second. You have to feel that result is a real reset for us. After a few weeks of average to poor performances, including...

Not read the match thread yet - looking forward to doing so later. Still absolutely on a high after that; we really needed that. You could see how much it meant to the players too. Momentum back on our side! PUSB

I don’t understand our tactics. Wingers playing narrow, asking for the ball in the middle and not retaining it, full backs massively exposed off the ball and zero options on it.

Some big decisions from Frank! Slightly surprised at Esse, mainly as he’s only been here a week. Simms and Lati masterclass incoming. Wolf looking more and more like a panic signing
