    We’ve started with zero tempo or attacking intent and it’s allowed them into the game (sound familiar?). Also, their set pieces are very very good.

    I like Panzo and that’s never a foul, but he looks very nervous and under confident. Especially concerning now he’s on a yellow.

    Good team and as importantly good bench (in context of recent weeks at least). Strong enough to win - and hopefully our better players step up, we play football and we’ll win.

    Gyokores

    Everton will offer - we know Dyche is a fan and he suits his style. Gyokeres going isn’t purely about the goals, replace him with Godden, Walker or anyone with a different style to Vik and we struggle. He single handedly creates opportunities and his mere presence creates space for others. At...

    I think we’ll see a curveball or two today. Not sure JWE will start, as Bidwell has been pretty solid if not spectacular and adds some experience to the defence. Hopefully he reverts to 3 at the back as that absolutely bizarre lopsided formation didn’t work at all last weekend. Both loans...

    You aren’t suggesting NOPM was just a convenient excuse for people when being a “fan” became hard work are you?

    Transfer Rumour Sean Maguire incoming

    Yes / it’s just a poor time to buy with prices raised / perception we now have money. But the one which has been speculated for the whole window might be on. It’s more on the club than the player!

    People not motivated by this one. I get it’s been poor post WC and momentum is non-existent, but Christ I assume you weren’t around for the L1 relegation days. Or some of the L1/2 days with only a few thousand fans in a 32,000 seater, with little to no atmosphere. Season may be dwindling but...

    Transfer Rumour Sean Maguire incoming

    Let’s give him a chance. He has history of playing well at this level, who’s to say MR/AV aren’t the people to get him back to that level. Also, strikers being judged purely on goals is dinosaur. We have Gyokeres for that, it’s clear we’re lacking intent behind him since COHs injury. The...

    Surprised that some pretty experienced posters have been drawn in by this!!

    Poor goalkeeping and defending for their goals. Some suspect defending too. But have to say, I’ve not idea what we’ve tried to do tactically today. Right side seemed massively vulnerable with loads of space for them, left side seemed to have nobody actually playing there. Formation didn’t seem...

    Not convinced. For someone who’s rated highly offensively he’s not been as impressive as hoped. He’s been involved in a few good attacks and made the wrong call. Equally his pace and willingness to get forward is a positive and he has shown some good signs. By no means writing him off...

    Our right side is absolutely appalling, we’re so so exposed. Dabo is Dabo and Norton Cuffey looks nowhere defensively. Positive - we’ve proved we can break them down quite easily. Also, this Ref is absolutely nowhere.

    Transfer Rumour Jamie Patterson

    Comparisons to Waghorn are mental. Comparisons to Sherwood and O’Neill are another level (genuinely no offensive FB He isn’t a crock, he isn’t past his prime and if (and it’s still a big if) he comes here it’s certainly not for the money. He’ll add to our squad. Don’t see that as a bad thing.

    Transfer Rumour Jamie Patterson

    Really surprised at some of the backlash. £400k really is quite trivial, especially when MR notes we can do something (paraphrasing) this window, so we have “something” available. He is an experienced Championship player, capable of being a match winner and extra motivated as he’s a Cov kid and...

    We lost - this place will be busy tonight. MR Out and all that.

    Good first half - hope it continues and we capitalise on one of our chances. Shame really, if we hadn’t sold Waghorn and Kane we’d probably be 4-0 up.

    What were people expecting? The squad is the squad. JWE is a surprise, but he’s not fit/ill. Bloody Robins. Let’s see where we are next week squad wise. Can’t wait for the MR Out narrative post match.

    He has always been keen; things have progressed quickly over the last few days. Edit: But is by no means a done deal!

    Right, no doubt BD was great source, but I thought we said ‘no one’: Or am I…?
