Kelly for Doyle when he returns

Except if you look back thro the player ratings there is a common thread that he is clearly talented but does not impact the game enough - which might be partly down to the talent level of those around him. In other words he was not making a decisive contribution to the game.

I am in a minority but I have always thought Bayliss was worth much more value to the club as a sale than as a player

We need to sell a Bayliss a year to rise up the League

A front duo of Hiwalu and Bakayoko is going to test the pronunciation of the commentators, and we could see this at the weekend

and I'll scratch your eyes out if you say different

bottoms up surely?

If we keep this thread up, we can just refer to him as "he" More to the point, after that jolly good turn and shot to score against WBA, why was he not even in the squad last week. The problem on Saturday, it struck me anyway, was that none of the Jordans on the bench was a creative player, and...

AB?

On money grounds only. As a player seems more a JCH / Max type - we still need nippy striker

Carl Baker training with Conor Chaplin at Ryton

Most of these plans are all round pegs in square holes. It is an away game so we will have a more defensive set up - Doyle & Ogogo in front of a back 4 with Davies in it. That leaves 4 places of which Bayliss, Andreu and Iwolowu (sic) account for 3. It is really only one decision - new guy or...

be good if we could pass as well - to me, to you, to me, to you

formation change?

But we have sense of what sort of player Chaplin is, the striker that plays of the big man, so at least you can suggest that he fills the obvious hole we have. You can similarly argue that the Walsall guy is adding a skill we already have. Can't imagine two of JCH, Max and this guy in the same...

we have Jones and Allesani, who it will already be difficult to fit into the same team. No need for a third.

pedant!

It is never "best eleven" because of injuries, form, opponent. It is a myth. Anyway, it should be best "shape" into which players come and go. That was the learning from Southgate's England incidentally, and also why Bayliss was played out of position - he is a good player but Kelly and Doyle...

Probably too attacking - he will keep Doyle a little longer. If it were me Stiring for Grimmer, Bayliss for Stirling, Allensi or Shipley on the left?

as I said, my interest is in the contract clause that appears to mean that we had to buy him at the end of the season
