  1. If only he could finish like Simms with everything else in his armour he would be one of the world’s best, and if that was the case he wouldn’t still be here the fact that he is surely has to be because no one is interested in a striker who doesn’t finish, without that everything else for a striker is meaningless.
  2. Pleased to hear it mate. It’s been a long journey
  3. Still left hanging as to what’s going on, but if you are a fan of the Esk he has climbed down on his 777 views, all though he still thinks they are the wrong choice for the club, and he would do because he doesn’t want to do a complete U-turn, he has started to backtrack on the fact he now thinks that 777 are likely to get the club very soon. So maybe not as long to wait as we think before new owners take control.
  4. Do you not think that is impact coming off bench is more because he is replacing players with less quality or something else? There is the argument that when he comes off the bench he’s fresh and the opposition are getting tired so that gives him more of an advantage than if he started. I really rate him compared to others who play in his position, he’s not built with speed and athleticism and can be slow to chase back when things break down, but what he does much better than anyone else is travel with the ball, makes space for others by attracting more 2-3 players in trying to dispossess him, and then crucially releasing the ball at the right moment without having it taken off him. I believe it was no coincidence that when he came on that we took control of the game, he’s the player with the most ability and vision in the team, and it shows that much even Stevie Wonder sees it, the only problem is we need Sean Dyche to see it.
  5. I think looks deceive slightly, he was the better of Doucoure and Gana in the midfield area and that’s what caught the eye and made him standout. Having said that I would rather play him as a more holding midfielder with Gomes and Garner, I think he would hold his position better than Gana who still drifts all over the pitch, plus he has more strength and ability when in possession than Gana. The one thing Gana still has over him is the ability to win the ball back more often, but even Gana’s stats are very average now, 4-5 seasons ago he was a round the top of the league in that department, but age comes to all of us eventually and it’s definitely caught up with Gana. So for them reasons I would Go with Gomes, Garner, and Onana over Gana, also when fit I would like to see Danjuma replace McNeil who I thought was our worst player last night, his contribution on the ball was poor and his work rate wasn’t good enough, he’s definitely becoming the weakest link in the team.
  6. Dyche needs to be braver in his team selection, we need to have players in and around the midfield that have the ability to receive the ball in tight positions and then have the ability to move it on without giving it away. All so we have stop the long balls from Pickford and Tarkowski as our favourite means of attack, they do us more harm than good, yes clear the ball long when it’s the best option of defending, but not as a tactical decision. Dyche got lucky today that Pickford wiped is arse for him. Next game let’s see a team selected to win the game and not just defend it.
  7. Was that a racist comment
  8. Hope so mate, starting with a midfield of Onana, Gana, and Doucoure meant we never going to be in control of the game. Gomes and Garner gave us so much more creativity and time with the ball, the difference was like night and day.
  9. Great point wasn’t expecting that, Gomes brought some composure and quality to the possession when he came on, for me he turned the game in our favour. DCL deserved that goal after his hard work in the last 21 games. Pickford like so many times was the difference made some crucial saves to keep us in the game he’s my motm.
  10. I was out my chair then can’t believe that didn’t go in
  11. Time for DCL, Patterson, and Gomes
  12. He was closer with that than his header
  13. Dyche will defend a 0-1 loss
  14. Bring Simms on, forgot we gave him away
  15. Wtf Beto wild play McNeil in ffs
  16. I don’t know why he doesn’t start Gomes at least he can play a pass without giving it away all the time
  17. The long ball from us isn’t working for us but working for them.
