We won. Jander is good (give away aside). Fellows is good. Stewart might be what we need and he was my MOTM tonight Woods is good. But fuck me it's still far too pedestrian, and we've won because a really good strike.

@trousersoblige good sir!

Never in doubt

It's very pedestrian in attack. A team at home who is a bit shot shy, and a team who can't break them down. It's not a thriller. Left side looks empty. Should be AA out there.

Via the app. Good team. Stewart does need to show something here I think though. Was relatively anonymous last weekend. Would prefer Jelert too but otherwise happy with that line up.

Oh no, he's started talking about being "brave".

Yes massively. Not AMs fault at all.

There

The lack of RB concerns me a little as it's will need them to get up and assist in midfield which is how Still likes to set up, or did on occasions, at Lens. But otherwise we'll see if our team is any good with some depth.

But is that better than cow shit?

Jander being fit is a bit of good news from the mid-week's showing.

Well that's just sensible. Knock it off.

Ooooooo I was on your side right up until this point. He got 10 in 29 so less than a goal every other game - or 10 in 21 starts still less than a goal every other game in Bundesliga 2 - he was less prolific the season before 2 in 10 though that was in the actual Bundesliga. He's hardly been prolific ever. I think he probably deserves time, but lets be clear its not like we've snapped up a gem unless we can mould him as such. And he HAS been fucking terrible so far. Edit: I can see we've done this to death above. Its not a great record any way you spin it.

Shame to see Jander go off injured - did not look happy.

There's a touch of calm class about him.... Bollocks that should be us one up.

The idea of being in the Championship to rebuild is a foolish notion. You are still way better off, being utterly pissed on in the Prem, than you are languishing in the Championship from a business sense. I like the championship as it goes, but I also don't want to be here for more than a season.

That's a great summary and all, but then I have to ask, why isn't it working? Are our players that shite? You're right about Downs being in the right positions(ish) but he's so far fallen over twice from 2 yards out and been completely inept against Hull. I actually want to like him, lovely finish in preseason, but he's been infuriatingly shit since. And my thoughts on Archer are well documented here. AA cannot lead a line. Stewart ? (He'd be my gamble)...Scienza the next gamble even though it's not really where he plays. Basically I'm asking you to give me some hope to hang on to 😂

I despise Stephens as a player - he represents all that is wrong with the club for me - but he's actually the best in the backline this season. THB would be out on his arse first then stick your finger in the air and choose which 'wing' back (that's a laugh) goes next.

Just about keep but fuck me its dire.

What about the guy at Charlton.......

He's got a goal or assist every other game the last two seasons from AM/LM. It's not his job to score hat fulls and yet he does and assists as well. I agree with the rest but like I said the problem doesn't appear to be him, it's the fucking set up, whatever that is. Certainly agree with the striker part too. Which is why I don't understand why we don't start with the biggest and stronger of the 4 we have. He's still meh but in this set up I think he'd be less meh than the other 3 shitters

I am not sure I agree here, he's been quality in this league for a few years and whilst the Prem might be a stretch I was expecting more from him by now.

Azaz is actually the barometer for as to why this is mostly Still's fault, he's gone from being a top class talent in the league to anonymous and shit.

He's fucking toss, always has been but I keep getting told he was great for Boro for 5 mins

Genuinely wank, still getting it out wide, still crossing it to no one who will ever win a header. Still's master plan.
