Re: MATCHWATCH : Lincoln City (h)

A lot of stick for Mukairu, some perhaps justified as not a lot came off for him but I do think we are a better side with him in the XI as opposed to playing Elliott or Ehib out there Natural width draws the defenders out and opens up space for the likes of Knibbs to operate between the lines wherea...

Re: Weekend Football

Do think Liverpool are missing that cool, calm head in attack. It’s where Firmino (at his best) was so important for them as he complemented Salah and Mane so well Nunez, Diaz and Salah is clearly a very talented front three but it’s slightly too erratic and there have been too many occasions this ...

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

All the spending United have done in recent years and they’re trying to close a game out with a back six of Dalot, Maguire, Kambwala, Wan Bissaka, Mainoo and McTominay Understand they have a fair few injuries but that’s really poor Although as ever with United, a large part of it is mentality and or...

Re: Weekend Football

Really hope Ipswich go up, they deserve it for how they have played all season. They really do play the "right way". LOL at Southampton. Really can't stand Russel Martin, arrogant oxf*rd. Think they’re the most likely to make a fist of it next season too. The way they play, Leicester and ...

Re: England - the future....

Overall he has been brilliant in improving performance (so his overall stats are good) but for me the question is how he does under real pressure and when it really matters. I get that he thinks our weakest area is defence so he plays more defensively and has two defensive midfielders. Amd this has...

Re: England - the future....

Teams are always shit once England beat them, right? Come on, you surely can't dispute that first run to the semi's was about as easy a route as you could get. England played Sweden in the QFs essentially because Germany lost to South Korea in the group stage. I don't buy the 'easy route' stuff. If...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

Our left side has been a bit of a problem all season. Knibbs was ineffective there at the start of the season and since we changed formation, no one has really held their own there Personally think that whilst he’s a bit of an enigma, Mukairu is comfortably our best option there. We’ve played some o...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

Why does Selles almost never take Smith, Azeez, Wing or Knibbs off?

4-1 down, just take them all out ready for more important games

Stick on penalty granted but how many penalties have we given away and conceded since we last scored one? Double figures now?

Tactical battle which has livened up in the second half. “Tactical battle” - usually an indication of a dreadful game! 5 of the 6 games between the top 3 have ended in draws, watching that “spectacle” I can see why Man City are so dreadfully dull, fair play as their method of “controlling” each gam...

Re: Weekend Football

What an awful addition VAR has been to the game Financial benefits not included, what is the incentive for teams to go up to the Prem now? The gulf in quality between teams is too much and when the referees continuously favour the teams higher up, you don’t stand a chance Mentioned before that I hav...

Re: England - the future....

Maybe he was taking the chance to test Maguire against a major football nation to see how much he could rely on him in big games going into the tournament. Personally I think Maguire is such an easy stick to beat Southgate with, he should have dropped him for a few games in preparation where the re...

Re: England - the future....

Thing is, given the general negative reaction to us losing a football match by a single goal to Brazil, it's hard to imagine that had Southgate played a few more inexperienced players and we'd been thrashed 5-0, he'd have been criticised for that, too. Fwiw, having seen some of the 'highlights pack...

Re: England - the future....

Maguire proving again that he should be nowhere near an England squad :roll: In this case, who would be your four CB’s you’d choose instead? Southgate is constantly criticised for not choosing players on form (some of it justified IMO). Maguire has had a relatively decent season club wise and has c...

Yep, clear second yellow but the ref probably decided he didn't want to "spoil the game" Again more consistency (see MacAllister above) Really sick and tired of the dumb-ass refereeing we're seeing this season and it's getting worse. Decisions not being made correctly because "it hap...
