Ridiculous how some said kitching better than Thomas.
Binks and Tavares have earned the right to start the remaining games in my view. In Tavares’ case there’s a contract in it for him
Maybe worth it as a message to Kitching though.Agreed although with Binks if saddle is right and they want crazy money maybe not worth it
Nobody is writing them off. But perhaps some time out of the side wouldn’t hurt Kitching especiallyWhy are we so quick to criticise and write off our players. This season will have been a massive learning for Kitching and Thomas. They may well be mainstays for us for a long time.
Thomas better by far today Kitching very rash.
I like Kitching but yes the other two were much better today.Kitching horrendous today, Binks and Thomas very good.
Yes premier league quality in the making, Kitching hasnt been great recently but the talent is there. Binks would be a great signing.Why are we so quick to criticise and write off our players.

Kitching when he plays well is a monster and i can see why we paid what we did for him although on current form he should be on the bench as Binks for me has been better this season. Thomas though is premier league standard clearly and holding onto him is going to be difficult.Kitching we massively over paid for don't see much improvement in him but Thomas has massive potential

Thomas did the same his crunching 50/50 header started a move for a goal. He wanted every ball. What a beast of a player. He was outstanding epitomised our whole performance .As a defender, I think Kitching was better. Binks though as a ball playing defender is a class above. His first touch is effortless. However, today Binks was superb with his physicality. One crunching tackle on the edge of the area.
I thought Binks should have come in a few matches ago. Today's game will have raised his profile for a summer signing by someone.
Our defenders arent good enough
Kitchen,or Bidwell but I'm saying the assister to the assist.ill go with Bidwell,MR could Enjoy,get us playing at that point.Playing with full confidence of the management to keep trying attacking or forward moves, I loved him from the start at Leicester away, can't remember he was involved with the ball to Haji to smack the bar, hope I can find a clip!
It annoys me when @Cally Fedora says our fullbacks can’t defend. They push so high up the pitch they’ll get caught out time to timeI think we have a cracking defence for this level that are being pushed to play out of their comfort zone at times by playing so high and aggressive , thay maybe sometimes people miss how good they are .. its easy playing safe .. its not easy doing what we do
Despite fans groaning when the fullbacks stand off wingers, it's a very clear tactical instruction to defend the box much better than we had in recent seasons.It annoys me when @Cally Fedora says our fullbacks can’t defend. They push so high up the pitch they’ll get caught out time to time
but we're inviting much more pressure that way - and a lot of our defending is last minute panicky type stuff.Despite fans groaning when the fullbacks stand off wingers, it's a very clear tactical instruction to defend the box much better than we had in recent seasons.
I don’t think we are, personally. You talk a game v Boro for example, there was lots of ‘pressure’ but gave away 2 shots on target.but we're inviting much more pressure that way - and a lot of our defending is last minute panicky type stuff.
But we're doing something right so who am i to judge!
but to invite somebody into your penalty area as MVE seems to a lot lately increases the risk massively doesnt it?I don’t think we are, personally. You talk a game v Boro for example, there was lots of ‘pressure’ but gave away 2 shots on target.
There were many times last season and the one before where we just didn’t defend the box well at all and we conceded more goals as a result.
It’s a bit of a Sunday league mentality to ‘close him down’ and win the 1v1 battle, as it were. At this level, defence is far more structural.
Well it annoys me when unchallenged crosses pour into our box but that’s life. That’s the way we play. But surely there can’t be a serious case made that either Van Ewijk or Dasilva can defend??It annoys me when @Cally Fedora says our fullbacks can’t defend.

Milan has been dribbled past 13 times all season. He’s made 19 interceptionsWell it annoys me when unchallenged crosses pour into our box but that’s life. That’s the way we play. But surely there can’t be a serious case made that either Van Ewijk or Dasilva can defend??
Kitching > Thomas
Maybe to be fair. I just like how he brings the ball into the opposition half to make space for others and I think it goes unnoticed.Opinions
Who was m.o.m against Bristol CIty last Saturday ?Fantastic for our CB pairing who aren't good enough apparently
