Kelly & James in central midfield wil be the one for us

They won't play together very often.

It'd be James/Kelly with Hamer/Sheaf

This is the thing, it's annoying when people just go 'losing the Norwich's reserves, it's embarrassing', have they actually looked at their team!

Xavi Quintillà - 19 games for Villareal in La Liga last season
Ben Gibson - Played 40 times in the Premier League
Christoph Zimmermann - 17 Premier League games last season
Alexander Tettey - 34 caps for Norway
Todd Cantwell - Played every game bar one in the Premier League last season
Kenny McLean - Played every game bar one in the Premier League last season, 17 caps for Scotland
Przemysław Płacheta - Polish international, regular this season for Norwich
Jordan Hugill - Approaching 200 Championship appearances

We're losing because they're better than us. So please, don't be ignorant of the opposition players and try and see the positives in our own performance.

Give DaCosta a chance to finger out, that Giles telling him English football is a non contact sport was a lie.

Maybe it was taken out of context and he was just laughing at how bad we'd started as a fan would. But then he entered the thread and appeared to carry on acting like a tool so who knows... he's not done himself any favours.

I think likely taken out of context. Obviously I don't want us to lose, but sometimes if you're 2-0 down after 15 mins all you can do is laugh, otherwise you'd cry.

The ‘reserves’ we played in the league were still pretty stacked, it’s just their bench was weak. They have two first teams more than good enough for this league

I have said this before, but the success rate from purchases in Europe of european born players has been piss poor.

Hamer is a different kettle of fish as we paid serious money for him, and Dabo is english. But Kast - poor attitide, Jobello - looked ok for League 1 maybe, Hissner - before his illness looked overweight, not up to the standard and certainly not an instant success. And now Da Costa....

It seemed an interesting concept and low cost. But does not deliver.

Actually these kind of signings will be more difficult with Brexit, which may be a blessing in disguise.

Of course it looks piss poor when you take out the two players that have been a success and are actually our two best players

All of Robins signings have been piss poor... when you take out the ones that haven't been piss poor.

The former youth team left back who was highly rated but ultimately ended up not being all that, clashing with fans on Instagram/Facebook.. it was a mildly amusing distraction from the first half.
