Excellent defensive performance. People slating Gunter (who was actually decent) can’t even bring themselves to acknowledge being in the right place to clear that shot off the line, dreary me. Raphael is improving game on game. Defensively getting tighter. We did give up a lot of space in middle of...

It’s a bit of shame our run from Brentford to Stoke, only picking up 5 points

Even three more points would have been massive for us right now, and got us really looking up the table. Swifts injury was a really bad blow for us, really hope he can stay fit now

Wouldn’t be against a 5 at the back on Sunday against a top team at home, but if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it

Therefore I’d go the same XI, bring McCleary/Puscas on the bench if available

Yes he was. A constant threat. Thought he was poor throughout except for the odd bit of magic, cracking bit of skill for the chance where Morrison cleared off the line to be fair Over the two games, he’s no where near as good as QPR fans hype him up In all seriousness, I agree with this. He certain...

I know. :oops: Boye 4 . Failed to hold onto the ball on several occasions. Sorry but that’s selective criticism IMO Boye did six things in the game IIRC He had a blocked shot He made a good interception Played a simple pass to Olise But he had one poor touch He committed when he shouldn’t have whic...

Royal Rother Ridiculous.

Eze was excellent.

Probably a reason for that

Today was a lot better than Derby. It was almost like the Reading of old. We played relatively quick football, fullbacks bombing forward for the first half an hour and I was really impressed. We had a poor 15 minute spell minutes 30-45 but never really look threatened and then we played well again f...

First half an hour was relatively decent, Gunter and Blackett much improved from Saturday

Gone downhill since then and we were too slow in possession the last 15

Adam and Pele also having good games, Swift looks a little rusty and Joao isn’t doing too much but isn’t getting enough support

19:30 is a ridiculous time for football on Boxing Day, every game should be 3pm I’m going to go but not happy about the kick off time. We would have had a good gate for a 3pm start. Now I think we will struggle to get beyond 10,000. Yep. Agreed. I’m contemplating not going to be honest, I really wi...

But he doesnt offer half the creativity of either. It's like having all the disadvantages of Swift and Ejaria without the advantages. May as well not play anyone. Genuinely think Barrett offers more, out of position, as a CM than Aluko does. And, as we all agree, Olise should be nailed on for that ...

Hold up. What can he offer? I would obviously prefer Olise to be given a shot too but I cant think of a reason to integrate Aluko back in. We have a plethora of players like him but better. He can be cover for Swift and Ejaria in case they get injured again, you can see how badly we struggled witho...

Just to cheer everyone up around Christmas, Aluko was part of the Christmas squad photo, available to play from Fulham (A) onwards I still think he can offer us something but I’d prefer to give Olise a shot Hold up.

Wtf?

Bloody hell, what a miserable sod that bloke is.

He looks dodgy too, the sort that would be turned away from schools

I'm happy for him to do nothing for 88 minutes every week on that basis. Work rate obviously goes down well with fans, but give me a bit more quality every time. P.s. you missed his pass for the 1st penalty. Yep and it was a superb pass. He was involved in all three goals. Surprised at some of the ...
