Particularly enjoyed this update from transfercentre9. Seems like York were in the market for a sh*t stopper last year. Could have finally found a home for Collins if we’d seen this earlier.

USG are the smartest team in Belgium, if they’ve bought him for 5m it means they think they can sell him for 15-20m in two years.

Zoltán Csucsánszky - signed in 1990, and picked up a career ending injury in pre-season

I don’t really understand the Emil Riis obsession. He’s a decent enough Championship forward and the kind of player we’d have been looking to pick up a few years ago when free transfers were our only option. Right now we can do better than that.

He’s a good player but USG are a moneyball team with links to Tony Bloom, we’d have to pay a massive premium for him. USG signed David from a Latvian team I’ve never heard of for 400k. Now if our scouting department is really on it, they’re the deals I‘d love to see.

It’s crazy to think that last time we played Boro, Rudoni was at left back. There‘s a bit in one of Lampard’s interviews after the game where we talks about how the two of them stayed late on Thursday to work on cutbacks into the box, and here he is scoring one in the match. I really like...

I think It’s just that Simms lacks dynamism, he never really seems to believe he can affect the game. When BTA came on you could see he was up for it, he presses and fights for everything, his technique is much better. He believes in himself in a way that Simms rarely seems to. I think BTA will...

We’d already be in the playoffs if Dovin were fit. The team have fought so hard for that and he’s thrown it away. I’m really not one for criticising individual players, but it’s impossible to back him any more. Has to be Wilson next week.

I was thinking more about 1 minute after half time than during. Dabo should get a cheer.

Legends Day? more like Bellend’s day.

Only time I’ve ever been hit by the ball was a Keith O’Neill shot. He hit the bar in the warm up and it looped on to me. Spilled my tea everywhere.

I think it’s the ‘touches in the box’ metric that was the difference maker. They always had time and space in our box, and that shouldn’t happen. Our defence has a terrible habit of ball watching. The Brewster goal was a classic where everyone falls to the six yard box, and no one covers a man...

Donated too. Would be great to see a few of us help out with this.

anyone else see that bit in the second half when MVE held off one of their players to let the ball go out for a goal kick, and then did that muscle man pose for the crowd? It‘s a tiny thing I know, but it was just so cool, and emblematic of that brilliant relationship between the players and the...

I’m not sure he controlled the game, but he definitely sets the tone. When he’s having one of his Kante games, when he’s everywhere, it just lifts the whole team. Thought Ebou Adams had a similar sort of game for Derby on Tuesday.

Just back from the game and that was sensational. Lampard has got them playing well and he must feel like he’s got a brand new £20m striker up front. The work rate from Allen, Grimes, Torp, MVE and Sakamoto was amazing. Even when we lost the ball you just knew we’d win it right back. Allen must...

Nostradamus

The first goal wasn’t BTAs fault. Our whole back four and two of our midfielders were in position when he lost it. The fact that 3 Stoke players managed to beat six Cov players so easily is entirely down to our defending. It reminded me slightly of the goal conceded at home to Sheff Wed where we...

It was a fantastic cross and a lovely flick. Wish Meslier had played like this against us.

I think that’s the problem though, we’re not trying to ‘imagine’ anything. We’re trying to make a comparison using stats derived from their actual contribution to games. I’m sure CoH is having a good season, but I wouldn’t swap him for Rudoni. Sheffield United finished 19 points above us the...
