dearie me

Perhaps the search is for a striker who fits the bill financially first, and then has the ability to make a contribution in the Championship, which is still a big possibility

He will be fronting a hospital-based, fly-on-the-wall show called 'Ings under the scanner'

Can't see Ings wanting to come back. Too much for the ego. Would be good, but think we should probably invest more time in the Hull chappie - probably more efficient use of energy and less chance of disappointment. We are a 'Wolves or an Everton', after all. Perhaps Liverpool might offer him a lifeline... (joking)

Surprised Everton not in for him. Toffees after Moffi seems made in heaven

I think he could work. Has the physicality we need. And can score.

Everton and Forest were sniffing around too

This. Credit where due.

Nor me. Tried to avoid all scores all day. You’ve all got me to thank. 😉

Wow. Bloody amazing result. Well done all

Ay up, it’s Del Boy.

Our direct play is awful. The tactics we employed against City would have been no less effective against Everton.

I like neither his ability nor his attitude

Setting the tone will be so important, especially today. What Adam Armstrong gives us is constant harrying. What Che gives us is lazy lolloping, no tracking, lots of offsides and poor finishing. It’s a terrible selection blunder.

Play a winning side. Consistency and confidence. This looks like silly too clever by half tinkering.

Che has been woeful all season

Yes. Because he played well, with energy. Che is appalling and shouldn’t be ahead of him at the moment.

Djenepo also rewarded for his man of the match performance by getting dropped

Che and Edozie up front. Not sure about that. Why reward Mara after that goal by dropping him? No Adam Armstrong either. I don’t get it at all.

Beto would be ideal. Hope we are in for him.

Me too. Vaguely remember about it coming from Lawrie Mac being the same plane as him, and just asking him. Could be wrong mind.

Probably a strong possibility given NJ's connections. Supposed to be alright

Alcaraz should be available for Saturday. NJ said he had 50% win ratio and hoping to raise that. But told press conference journos that their questions were ‘very negative’. Quite spiky. Bit defensive. But emphasizing that he will put out a team to be positive and win a football match on Saturday.

'Facilitating forward' = terrible at actually scoring goals. Decided drop in quality/possession when he came on.
