Styles got sent off for them against us last season.

About time they had two then

When it’s your season you just go with it, that red card changed the game, but still think we’d of got a draw at least, talking to a in the now after the game and at lest 2 incoming january, we‘ll only get stronger

Yeah tbh I thought it was gonna be one of those days we weren’t gonna click. Think I commented moments before the goal that it’s not happening today. Good time to net one back, maybe it was a simple word in a couple of ears at HT was needed. We were rightly relentless after the sending off.

Thought we eased off after the 3rd but always had it in us to turn it back up a notch

Good to hear the positions looking at.

obviously got this Swedish winger also, if any truth.

I don't know if he was the target i was told about first, only that we'd been on it pretty much straight after the close of the previous window. So it's obviously someone who we have been looking at for a while.

Not sure who the Championship winger could be that we may have enquired about, we were discussing it today and if it's just someone to see us through to the end of this season rather than somebody who is premier league ready then there are a couple of possibilities.

Same goes for the midfielder really, it all depends whether it's just a case of going for it in January to see us over the line, or if they have one eye on the possibilities of promotion, that will decide what profile of player we are after.

not only was Saka skinning folk all game I liked when he got stuck into Grant and gave him a nice push in the chest when Grant tried kicking off.

Same as the 1st half against sheff utd, but we can’t afford to keep doing that,

Thats what makes it a really tricky window - buy with eye to PL or just short term!

100% at least 2 lined up January, the squad will be even stronger, start to believe, but that atmosphere needs upping, not quite sure what it’ll take, top of the league and very quiet at times, needs a rethink, 2 nd half was class

Indeed, we'll find out soon enough i guess.

If short term let get Liam Kelly in on 6 month loan so he can take us to the premier league after all!

Personally I’d move the away fans to the opposite corner, we’d have both ends, 2 nd half was more like it

 

[SleepyGinger]

Championship winger is interesting. It’s not going to be someone else’s cast off, Sean Maguire type signing.

hands up if you're having a shit day:

It's even worse when Lampard selects Victor Torp and Janik Sinner in the same XI:

Torp and Kitch celebrating the win earlier:

I really can’t be bothered to get into arguments but we need a better left sided defender - whatever MVEs limitations are he always can recover position with pace. Dasilva can’t. He was exposed badly all of the first half. We can’t concede two like we did and win games all the time.

The left side of the team is far worse than the right. If we could find a player in January who is better than Dasilva and use him like we do Allen we’d be in a far better position.

I’d love to trial KKH there now as others have suggested within the last day. I feel for him as he’s a class player and come in and not yet been able to get a look in, maybe this gives him an opportunity to get more minutes.

You would like to drop JDS???

It was a response to Grendel’s comment about strengthening the LB position.
I don’t personally think we need to go and buy another player, I think KKH does a job there.
Lots of people in another thread think JDS was tired today and could have been rested but we don’t feel that Bidwell or Brau can step up… KKH is that guy

Definitely an option I guess.

Still think bidwell can do a job every so often if needed personally

 

[quinn1971]

We’ve always struggled at LB the fact they switched they‘re Left winger to the right knew where we’re weak, da silva’s great going forward but is always going to get caught out, strange game, said at half time never been more confident we’d still win, sign of a good side, just keep grinding out results, win on tuesday and really start believing
