  1. About a month a go he made reference to Jack Stephens being needed in the run in. Since shoehorning him into the team at the expense of possibly the best defensive partnership in the league we continue to ship goals.
  2. Consequences of poor performance and game plan. Second half with a more direct intent and purpose was much better than the first, but the game was gone.
  3. Slow, ponderous and absolutely no energy. Hull are sat back waiting for their moment and picking us off. When they do they are direct, attack with pace and turning us round so easily.
  4. If course we can catch them. However it would require us to go on a run of winning all but 1/2 of our remaining games. They would need an implosion of sorts, which can happen... We sort of did it ourselves when we allowed reading to come from 8 points behind to beat us to the top spot!
  5. Just an all round poor performance. Lethargic from back to front. No movement from any of our players. Every time Bristol get the ball they attack with purpose.
  6. Stadiums in the middle of nowhere. I would drink in the city center then get a taxi out... Afterwards I'd head to Corn street or Park Street/Triangle/Whiteladies road depending on what you're after.
  7. Nearly every time Dibling got the ball in the first half, he made something happen. His first touch is fantastic, one of the best I've seen in years, creates himself some much time and space through it. Coupled with his ability to turn on a sixpence, he's a nightmare for defenders when. Receiving the ball back to goal. First time I've seen him play and I can certainly see that he's got something about him. Meghoma again was fantastic. Played like an experienced lb. Stands his man up well, good in the tackle and let very little get past him or into the box - very much like Ashley Cole was. Great at going outside his man, definitely some learning and development for him with decision making going forwards. Think he'll be a top player.
  8. Would love for us to be in a position whereby they can give Dibling 35 mins. He looked a real threat last night and the more game time he gets the better. Same can be said of Meghoma, looked like a proper left back last night but don't think you can just discard Manning at this present time. Need to have a really positive first 45 and make sure we create and take our chances. That way, we should be able to give some key players a short afternoon and a rest before the next game!
  9. Absolutely this! I recall people saying of Schneiderlin when we were in League 1/Championship that they didn't rate him and that he wasn't up to it. However every time we played against Premier League opposition whether that be friendly or cup, he stood out. The style of football played in the championship is very different to the Prem and whilst Alcaraz may not stand out in this team, at this level. I have every confidence that should we go up, he will be a key player next year.
  10. Single handedly the best value for money signing we made after Lambert. Phenomenal servant for the club. Class act. Wish him well. Can see him getting into Management and having a good crack at it.
  11. We haven't even got into the championship part of the season. The league will be won in the last 15 games. How far behind us were bloody Reading behind us and West Ham when we went up last time? Bigger gap than 8 points I think!
  12. 8 points off top spot.
  13. Is what it is. They still need to win two games more than us to go above us. We would smash them both.

    Tyler Dibling

    Please don't put too much pressure on the lad. The step up is massive. Clearly he has the tools to be a good player, but many a youth player has made their debut and looked like a top talent - only to go on and not make it at this level. Let's hope he is able to kick on.
  15. Aribo playing like he's been on the beers and mince pies
