In an earlier post @Sky Blue Pete called Farage ‘economically illiterate’. True, there are questions about his credibility on the economy but if you then think Polanski is credible… some souls cannot be saved. If anyone seen Polanski on ‘The Rest is Politics’, he struggles with basic questions...

Lol, are they serious? We are talking about the same teams who averaged 0.8 and 1.2 ppg away from home? Ipswich have played 2 more home games than us and still have 1 point less at home. They’ve not won in their last 3 away games against average opponents. 6 points this Xmas period please...

It’s not over confidence, it’s a reflection of our home form where we’ve only dropped 4 points all season and Swansea aren’t particularly good, let alone when they’re away. Lati and Wolfenden managed the Southampton attack well so even if it’s a worst case scenario, they should be trusted to...

With the algorithms, you constantly get fed what interact with. My feeds have been bombarded with Green/Your Party stuff lately because I’d watched interviews with Polanski and Sultana. The latter talking exactly as people would at uni… Not related to what you witnessed last night but I’ve...

This game has got to be a gimme for 3 points. We’ll win 2-0 for this one. Hoping Wright/Simms and Rudoni is back on the score sheet!

Which may raise eyebrows but we’re spent around £55m in transfers since 23/24 from £46m in sales. King has said that he wants to not only get promoted, but to stay there too so there’s good enough reason to expect funds will be made available.

It hasn’t helped that Haji has missed about 2.5 xG in chances since his last goal. I’m sure it was about 7-7.5 xG when he was on 8 goals and now he’s on 9.68 xG. Even yesterday, our best chance wouldn’t have come up on the stat sheet because Haji was on 1v1 and his heavy touch meant he didn’t...

Our xG hasn’t been dropping, for PNE and Bristol the xG was in and around 2. Similar or higher than in games we’ve scored 3-4 goals, such as Boro, QPR, Watford and probably a few other games.

I hope we learn the lessons of Ipswich’s recruitment to be honest. Creating a championship super team won’t keep you up and we’re seeing that Ipswich are underperforming this season and assuming they go up (I think they will), can’t see them staying up.

Anyone who’s watched us in our ‘rough patches’ will have seen that the results did not match the performances. Ipswich was not a 3-0 domination, we should’ve beat PNE and Southampton we were the better team until a red card. 2 points from the last 3 away games isn’t a bad return. The team does...

On top of 2-3 signing in Jan, I’d say we’d need close to 10 signings in we went up. Sunderland made about 12 new signings this summer.

You pretty much need to do a Forest or Sunderland to stay up. We’ll need to spend comfortably £100+ million on transfers.

He has more tackles than MVE btw…

Agreed on all points. Lampard’s career to date was tarnished unfairly imo. Unlike some managers who have a ‘system’ that they’ve perfected (Martin, Kompany or Maresca), Lampard has proven that he is actually flexible which in my view, has helped us develop so quickly this season and got us...

The whole 2nd half, yes. 1st we were undoubtedly the better team so this Eckert is delusional to say otherwise. His bubble will burst imo. Haji was 1 v 1 with the keeper and didn’t even get a shot off!

Yes, unlike Kompany and Maresca, he’s already managed at ‘the top’ so his record probably counts against him even though it wasn’t particularly bad. He enjoys being here and appears to have brought into the project so I genuinely think he’ll have a crack at Prem with us should we finish the job...

Not many, Ipswich will break into the Top 2 imo but is their run rate better than ours for the rest of the season? Probably not.

What did they say? I’ve not long got in!

Me neither. Beat Ipswich on the 29th and I’m fully convinced we’re champions elect. It’s funny, in our ‘rough patch’, the lead at the top has gone from a 10 point lead to 6 points… Also, the Hellberg bubble is potentially burst after 5 games. Sure, they’ll do well at home on Boxing Day and the...

100% - their only hope was a defensive error because we were well on top in the first half.
