Need to build out confidence in himDidn't like how the Wolf stood with his foot on the ball and looking pretty slow and casual. Bit too ponderous for me!
Yes he has been exceptional this season.Some people seriously sleep on JDs importance and contribution to how we build attacks. EMC, Grimes and Torp play off him constantly
I'd been genuinely quite happy if Ellis Simms keeps Haji out the team for the rest of the season.
Not just a more likeable guy, but when he is playing like this I think we're just a much much better team.
I thought he was very good today , he seems to get criticism for not being the same as Tats .I thought EMC was very good today, better than some of the scores given. They were terrified of him. The right back who got booked early they switched with the LB to try and cope. Second half they constantly doubled up on him. Terrific performance.
Chipped a toenail,He felt his foot after a tackle
Teams always double up on him which frees up SakaI thought he was very good today , he seems to get criticism for not being the same as Tats .
For me Tats is an old fashioned style winger who loves turning defenders inside out whereas EMC is a modern "wide forward " who drives at players and looks to get in dangerous positions to score or create
EMC is far more important to how we play than Tats imo. Rudoni was able to come in and do a solid job out wide whereas there isn't anyone in the team with the same directness as EMC.I thought he was very good today , he seems to get criticism for not being the same as Tats .

A great example here is the Sheff U game at home where we were pretty toothless until we had that directness out wide.
The other one was excellent too I thought with his driving forays,are we seeing a replica of team of 67?Thomas was out best player. Actually distributed well, stopped a goal at 1 down, looked a threat moving forward. Was excellent
Yes, but is there anything Sakamoto can do that Rudoni couldn’t? If Eccles keeps up his form, it’s entirely possible that we’ll see Rudoni at RW more often.They are both valuable and bring different qualities, so it is a bit silly to compare them. EMC might be more direct, but Sakamoto is a better crosser, links play better and provides more defensive cover. They are not like for like.

Feel for Woolf a bit it’s like he’s trying to hard to impress. We can’t judge him til hes had a run of starts in a row but without injury or suspension I can’t see that happening anytime soon.Didn't like how the Wolf stood with his foot on the ball and looking pretty slow and casual.

Unless they are short-term signings, I don’t think we should be bringing in players worse than our current starting XI in January.Add a top class 10 in the window to help cover Rudi and if available elite JDS/Grimes cover and I can’t see us not winning this division.
agree SBT. my argument is that the back up players for these positions should be at very high levels to slot in - right now if we lose JDS, Grimes and Rudoni as a proper 10 - we have a few problems.Unless they are short-term signings, I don’t think we should be bringing in players worse than our current starting XI in January.
What do we know, I mean he could be out for months if he's done his shoulder again,may need surgery, no will need surgery, might even scupper a move?Unless they are short-term signings, I don’t think we should be bringing in players worse than our current starting XI in January.
I would rather roll with the multiple backup options we already have at CM and LB than spend money on players who would be backups this season and obsolete next season. There simply isn’t an urgent need for reinforcements there.agree SBT. my argument is that the back up players for these positions should be at very high levels to slot in - right now if we lose JDS, Grimes and Rudoni as a proper 10 - we have a few problems.
No long throws attempted yesterday were there either?
Yeah there were a few
Simms should have done better from the one fired into him 2nd half which he got a slight connection with on the turn
Stay vaguely in a RW position?
