Said earlier on here that I still believe Che has it in him to score a decent number of goals in this league. Two yesterday as a second half sub is a great start and let's hope he can carry on. If he can add more goals he's going to be some player because the rest of his game is right up there. Also, might be wrong but in the photo I've seen of him celebrating a goal yesterday he looks to have bulked up and added muscle.

Visit the local bookmaker where you placed your bet, present your slip and they will pay you your winnings 🙂

Worth a bump. Think this lad is going to be special. He's a unit, quick across the ground and great in the air. Just what we've needed and I reckon him and Salisu are going to make a solid pairing. Already notable that Salisu is looking more comfortable in the minutes they've played together.

Great result especially coming from behind. Glad Ralph saw sense with the formation and won't knock him for not starting with Che as he hadn't trained much. Whatever any of us say we got three good points and Che's value just went up - not that we should be considering selling him. The two big lads in the middle of defence seem to already be forming a partnership and it beats that 5 at the back shit where everyone thinks someone else is going to cut out the danger and nobody does. 4 points from those first three games is very acceptable. Onwards and upwards - bring on United!

Bring on Oriel, move JWP to right back, KWP to left back and shift Djenepo up to left wing and we'll win this.

No thanks. Horrible player. Up there with Harry Winks.

Agree with this - sadly Ralph won't.

Balotelli likes to do things quietly 🙂

We won't pay them that much 🙂

Well, let's see how 5 at the back goes.

Bazunu JWP ABK Sailsu KWP Oriel Lavia S Armstrong A Armstrong Aribo Adams

Play five at the back and I'm convinced we'll lose and barely lay a glove on them. It leaves us exposed and stifles our creativity. Having said that Ralph will likely revert to what hasn't worked before.

Good player - think he's going to Roma.

If we get him then I reckon he'd start plenty of games. Let's remember Lavia is very inexperienced despite his two fine performances to date and there is talk of Oriel leaving.

More of his gobbledegook.

Agree with lots of this but the problem is that Ralph doesn't.

He talks round and round in circles never making any sense. Makes it up as he goes along. Whatever fits the narrative at the time.

It's a fair point :-). Let's amend to 28 August.

Leicester fans seem in the same boat as many of us - they hate the 3 at the back that Rogers has adopted and think it leaves them vulnerable at the back while stifling their attacking play. Could be interesting when the team sheets come out and we all puzzle over respective formations. Reckon if they do go 3 at the back and we revert to 4222 we have a good chance of turning them over. Still think it's more likely Ralph will start with 3 at the back.

I doubt there will be a great deal of major transfers anywhere now until around 29 September when the dominoes will start to fall.

I'm not fully convinced Hudson-Odoi is all that to be honest. Was great as a youngster and a lot was expected of him but has he really kicked on? He's never managed to hold down a regular place at Chelsea and Tuchel was pretty scathing of him after one particular game. He's only scored 4 goals in around 72 appearances in the Premier League. Some top clubs have been linked with him but none of them seem to want to commit to him. He had a fairly bad achilles injury so I wonder if he's hampered by that. Just not sure he's what we need for the wages he'd want.

Looks to have a bit of everything. Probably just more clickbait.

Watch his skills video - he is fantastic.

Would love to get James Garner. Worth watching his skills videos. Fantastic player with a tremendous all round game. Lavia is very young and with Oriel slowing down I think this guy would be perfect for us. Wouldn't mind betting he'd become one of the first names on the team sheet.

Perraud is a decent enough full back and we generally look better when he plays. He also has a shot like a sledgehammer so hopefully we'll see more attempts from him this season.
