Right at the end, around 30 minutes. Swansea my guess.

Assume it’s not this one but found it interesting Tonda said in a press conference recently there’s a game coming up we’ll likely go 5 in midfield like we did at Coventry last season.

Look at that, someone with a balanced view, high expectations and willing to let results do the talking without making daft statements. It can be done!

You only think this because I told you to stop worrying before the end of August and a day or two before we stuffed Millwall. I’m just of the belief the results will tell us how things are…my bad.

Only if we don’t change the way we attack. It’s perfectly possible we supply the strikers differently. We don’t have to keep smashing the ball up to Mubama if we don’t want to. We also don’t have to do that to Larin either but that’s a whole different debate.

All a bit clunky but to get out with a point and some gelling to do feels okay. Agree with the above about Larin and Mubama though. Different players and Mubama will need us to actually create some chances for him. Suspect he takes one of the ones Larin missed today.

So your opinions and comments are allowed but my opinions and comments on your opinions and comments I shouldn’t bother with? How about…all opinions are allowed but ones I think are a bit daft, dramatic and not really making any coherent sense, especially as they depend on something that hasn’t happened yet…I can comment on saying so? And you can yawn at them.

Clearly weaker but jury is still out. Ok. Surely the stronger than last year comment will be judged by results? And therefore jury is still out for all and nothing is clear?

Weird all these players going on loan when we could be getting a fee over what we got for Charles eh @Matthew Le God?

Hello every club in the world

Was at St Mary’s Saturday telling people he’ll be back in the squad soon fwiw.

anyone know whats happened to Baylee Dipepa?

Someone needs to remind this Jack fella the vocal minority believe the point of a transfer window is not to set up your squad for competing in the games and to be judged on those accordingly. It’s purely vibes and if Solly March can give better vibes than some talented kid with his career ahead of him then so be it! Jack should make this point later in the year, but before January, when the vocal minority reserve the right to forget the vibes they wanted and instead judge based on results again.

Send your case to the FA and hurry up because pretty sure verdict was decided, sent to the club and announced weeks ago am I right @MB?

Will double check with the club to see if I still find it amusing and get back to you. Would also like to add that it would be worrying if ‘I’ll wait until I see him play to decide if he’s good or not’ is the same position the club are taking on any transfer they are about to complete.

There is of course the option that we did all this and a human being changed their mind for some reason, somewhere along the line?

Given I’ve argued on here quite a lot that ‘experience’ shouldn’t be used as a barometer - I really don’t think I would have been 😂

People are allowed opinions. But I will only point out they look silly if a) their opinion includes factually incorrect usage of numbers b) based on literally zero evidence and/or c) moaning for the sake of being grumpy Correct.

The right? 😂 I had no opinion on Schlotterbeck, just as I have zero on Abbott. But you’re right, I’ve only picked people up for moaning.

The good news is we still have a target man and fellows replacement to do this all over again with, right @Pilchards?

As you’ve neatly pointed out…it’s sometimes best to see how things pan out before having opinions.

Actually I didn’t ignore anything. I directly quoted the point that was being made and took issue with the 3 first team appearances comments, which stupidly I thought meant 3 first team appearances as fact and therefore I pointed out that’s not correct

Probably would have waited to see them play before dismissing them and their experience…which is the point.

It’s not though is it. 3 is not 13, especially when you say 3. And even if you specifically put it in fancy italics for effect, it’s literally not the same.

You don’t know this guys attributes though do you? So you don’t know how much his replicate THB. That’s before even considering that replicating the attributes of someone just signing for a Champions League team seems a bit ambitious to me. It’s obviously a risk, hence the loan but every signing is a risk. Splashing a nice figure on someone that a message board convinced themselves over night was perfect also seems a risk to me but given the clubs job is to scout and watch these guys I’m going to wait and see how it pans out before shitting the bed. But I also suggested someone on here should do that before Millwall so maybe it’s a character flaw.
