Looks a decent starting XI against a difficult side . Plenty of options on the bench to change formation later in the game if we need a goal or two

Seems to be only a couple "chatting shit " Shmee is one , can you work out the other ?

Grimes needs movement from his midfield partner/partners . Torp was fairly static against QPR . Eccles made a difference when he came on

Not for me . I thought him and Grimes looked a lot better than Grimes and Torp

Kauro Mitoma , wow You wont see a better first touch all season and what a finish

No , absolutely one or two are incredibly obsessed around Robins leaving and Lampard arriving but some are getting very precious and overly sensitive about posters questioning Lampard . It's like you can't be happy with Lampard but criticise things any more

We have momentum, the players appear more confident and we have some of our better players returning. Should be an exciting run in

Who's complaining? There seems to be a weird obsession against any hint of criticism against FL . Im delighted we are where we are but I will feel fit to questions things like a high defensive line against good teams without being called Anti-Lampard or Pro-Robins

It's hardly a pile on. Posters are allowed to question decisions and style of play under Lampard . We're all still Cov fans

All about opinions I guess

Wasn't he homesick for a lot of his early days with us

He was sent off on his debut and struggled to settle was my memory of his first season with us . Even as late as the playoff season he was still having disciplinary problems . I agree he looked good from the off but an instant success is pushing it

I'm not on about the Championship , I'm talking about CCFC who had spent peanuts for many years . Suddenly we spend "big" money by our standards and the expectations of our fan base rises , rises unrealistically a lot of the time . Thats when the hysteria starts about Austin ,Robins and King not...

I think Van Nistelrooy , in hindsight , wishes he'd have gone for an easier job rather than the poison chalice of Leicester

They were certainly big money signings for us in our recent history though. Even Gus and Vik cost money , something we weren't doing at the time

The old subs bench turns a player into Messi or Ronaldo , you must've realised that by now 😉

Like I keep stating about recruitment. Look back over recruitment over the last 6-8 seasons , how many of our top players were instant successes ? Vik - No Gus - No O'Hare - maybe MvE - No Wright - No Simms- No I know when you spend big the expectation rises but you have to allow players time...

The problem is some judge recruitment after 10 games and not after a realistic period

He was very good for us in League one but wasn't anywhere near good enough at championship level

How so?
