    Tbf, our board have taken us from being a well established PL side to a club who's whole existence is in jeopardy.

    So yeah, it'll take more than fobbing Holgate off on someone to go any way to making them not look useless.

    Mate if they manage to sell Keane to Luton, even you will have to give them a nod of approval. 
    Maybe Beto to Forest and we’re saved!

  2. Still our biggest asset though. 
    And these players aren’t kids, or shouldn’t be. If they can’t galvanise after a missed penalty… then they shouldn’t be in the professional game.

    Onana can be so annoying to watch. He has moments when he strides forward and looks like a Vierra…. And then spends the rest of the game looking likes he’s scared to go forward. 
    But he has more good moments than bad for me and we would be a weaker team without him.

    Neither do I, but the post I was replying to was about technique and that's what I responded about.

    Did he like shite mean it, and you know it.

    Still think there’s fine line between him and Beto’s technical ability. 
    Niasse could at least put a simple pad together. 
    Beto seems to have all the time on the world… panicks and hits a ten yard pass thirty yards to far.

     

    Niasse would have kicked the ball up into his face and noses the ball to his team mate. That’s skill.

  4. I took my U14s to play the top of the league team on so day.

    We we’re without our goalkeeper and three others players, so down to the bare minimum. 
     

    We were absolutely awesome. No MotM, of Girl of the match… as we have two playing for us. Every player played their part. We were 1-0 up and they had their first shot just before half time… which went in to make it 1-1. 
    At half time I let our team listen to them jumping up and down full of enthusiasm as they thought we would roll over in the second half. 
    We played the second half exactly as we played the first half. Every plate doing their part. Ten minutes before the end out striker Freddie got on the end of corner, just beating my own son Aaron to the ball to make it 2-1. 
    we not only held on to the lead, but very nearly got a third.

    The team was bouncing at the end. It felt amazing. I love football again. 
    Most amazing sport in the whole world. 
     

    A team of 13 players came together and battled till the end.

  5. He looks like he is a confidence player. We need to get him on the scoresheet and then see what happens.

    Having him back coincided with our best run of results for a very long time. And make no mistake, the hardest chance for any player to put away is a one on one, always has been and always will be. He needs to be on the end of balls into the box, that’s where his strengths are. 
     

    It doesn’t look like we can use January to find a solution either, so we need to work with what we have and find a way for us to get goals again.

  6. We’re near the bottom of the league with the possibility of more sanctions/punishment. 
    We would be absolutely crazy to sell him in January. It would be a disastrous decision. 
     

    He is one of our most influential players and our midfield would be lightweight and impotent without him. It’s not that he is an attacking player…. But he is that player that can link with those in front of him.
