We don't create chances down the middle at all which is why both Godden and Simms don't look great. It's no surprise Wright suddenly looks like twice the player when playing down the left. Today's result, like 4-5 times this season, is that we couldn't maintain control in midfield and we're...

20 goals and 10 assists for a striker, as we know, can fetch a £20-25 million fee. In the end, Wright will be worth his fee and some.

When Leicester went down, players like Maddison and Tielmans have gone on to make impacts at teams at the top end of the Prem. Yet, they were relegated.

The players we signed from them were in their team when they finished 5th in Championship. Collins, Kitching and Styles were all starters for them.

Love the idea, but it’s not the WWE! Question: what do we reckon COH’s theme song would be?

We were likely interested in Whittaker in the summer but doubt that we desperately wanted him as we’re a more attractive destination than Plymouth. Form comes and goes and the job of the recruitment team is to decide who they think will have the higher upside. Simms has been finding his groove...

To clarify, I think they’ll finish top 6 and lose to their opponent in the playoffs.

I’m still convinced Ipswich will drop off and don’t think they’ll make the playoff finals.

Remember when Sunderland fans were on about signing Gyokeres in the summer? How the tables have turned.

On the balance of things, Sunderland had chances to score and they’ll be disappointed they were wasteful. We missed a big chance at 0-0 ourselves and that’s just football. Overall, we created the better chances and it was a pretty comfortable game for us. We weren’t ‘poor’ at all. We’re a...

I didn’t hear any songs about Bradley Lowry.

… and managers

At 3-0 all I could think about is how close the game was and that we were lucky to get the 3 points. In the end, we won the game comfortably and we’re the better team who created the better chances. It was by no means the perfect performance but Sunderland didn’t offer much despite a couple of...

I don’t think the players signed are of a high enough profile to make a difference to be honest. The single biggest thing that would widen our global audience is promotion to the Premiership.

Gyokeres is potentially a £100m player, of course he’s a lot better than what we have. We obviously need a replacement for Hamer, that’s in the works and Robins has been v open with that. There’s always scope for improvement so we will be looking to make 2-3 signings in Jan and more in the...

Swansea away today there was a middle aged man moaning at every little mistake and berating the whole team… QPR away, same guy, same relentless nit picking every mistake and saying we’re shit. Do these people actually enjoy watching the games?

Agreed and at this stage, he offers more than Godden in open play. Against Blues, he was outlet and his link play was good. He just needs to find his feet and again, I think we’ll have a really good player on our hands. There’s a reason half the league wanted him this summer.

Unfortunately I wasn’t at the game but I’ve rooting for Wright so I’m happy he got MOTM. I feel like Simms too will have a purple patch once he hits some form - he’s admitted to snatching at chances lately.

Whilst not wanting to get too excited after a few games of quality, it does seem like COH has used the time out injured to really work on his game. Pre-injury, he was arguably our most influential player who perhaps lacked a killer instinct in the final third. If he can consistently add goals...

Clearly people who have made their minds about him early doors. They’ll hop on the bandwagon when he bangs them in on the regular. I couldn’t make the game last night but his goal was quality. Great team effort to win the ball, slide Wright in and his touch, feint and the finish was quality...
