Which is why you need to play Sakamoto. Esse has only crossed the ball once in 3 games.
Esse looks more like a 10 to me, that seems his most natural position. I think alternatively he is more a wide attacker than a traditional winger.

Occasionally....probably be before your days, for away games, I would only find the score out by buying The Pink, which the Cov Telegraph used to publish and would be delivered to newsagents before or around 6pm ish every Saturday night

Same here, out of interest which newsagent. 🤔

Used to be Ward's down Ringwood Highway and then what was Forbuoys on Jubilee Crescent. Now a Spar I believe.

Kempas Highway, Green Lane, opposite the Burnt Post Pub.

I'll be in Hamburg watching in a bar somewhere 👀 It might be better while under the influence 🍺

if you go down the Reeperbahn you’ll have more chance of scoring than us

Agree - I think we were somewhat willing to gamble vs Norwich because we believed they wouldn't take their chances well - which I think broadly was correct - Rushworth had a lot less difficult saves to make than previous games. But it is a dangerous game to play allowing so much to happen in dangerous areas - as you say, the winner comes from a mistake.

I also think we were unlucky not to go in 2 up (Wright) and to equalise (EMC off the bar). What I think baffled a lot of people is that we didn't seem to tactically respond to the game well, at all. By the first half it was clear we needed far more control of the game, and we already had a lead to defend, away from home. Conceding seconds into the 2nd half didn't give us much chance of that - which perhaps played a part in Lampard & co deciding to keep going for it.
It was madness. We got battered first half and extremely lucky to be 1 up. Not sure why Frank didn't see this and change things. No hindsight needed. It was obvious.

They had 1 more shot than us than in total in that first half… what are you talking about? 😂

Last season, Norwich actually battered us and to demonstrate the difference, see attachments.

I am praying for you. I have lost my soul on the Reeperbahn more than a few times. It's a 'Bangkok has him now' kind of place. You'll be back in about 3 weeks.

Not refering to prostitues by the way, just to clear that up. It is just an absolutely mental nightlife place.
