disconnect

It's a shame we've had both Roerslev and Jelert (who looked especially promising, but definitely underutilised by Still) injured at the same time. I think get one of those back, get Fellows starting further forward and possibly move to a back 4 and we'll be looking much better. Agree that Bree has been solid, but in a couple of weeks could have 2 good right backs at this level already without the need for Bree to return.

Can't believe how badly it's gone since then - looked like we had unearthed a real gem! We're due a Christmas miracle - could it be that Downs comes on as a sub, shins one in then goes onto score 10 goals til the end of the season?! Cue loan move announced New Years Day...!

Ah, I didn't realise that - only that he had yet to extend his contract and thought it expired in the summer, not next (27) summer. I might've been confused with our other main man, Aribo...!

I think it's more likely that someone from the Prem will offer around £20 million (and maybe upto £8-10 million for Shea). Not that I think we'd accept that, but think clubs would've started to take notice but test the waters quite low, and many will be aware of Shea Charles's contract and come in low. I expect us to loan out Downs and almost certainly look to get a new (more physical) striker in on loan.

Makes Stephens seem like Einstein. He'd be good on a night out with Matty Targett 🤣

Aribo's on for his high energy pressing... 😐 Absolutely woeful second half. Every time Fellows and Scienza get taken off we fall to pieces.

Can't get anything from Sky and even the usual Fawanews Cannot Be Reached (it worked an hour or two before kickoff).

If that's the worst case scenario then makes a mockery of the whole extended format, and imagine we'll see some of the biggest ever scorelines next year. Might even mean we could rest Harry Lead Boots for a few games so he doesn't look like he's running through treacle by the time we play anyone half decent 🤣

If we're doing a 2 then it should be Charles and Jander. I think Charles is one of the first names on the teamsheet?

Pereira is 32 (born in 1993)! Not really an OAP!

Yeah dont know why we're bothering at all with Aribo, might as well have Sesay and/or Williams on the bench instead of him.

Just gone onto the Goztepe site and translated via Chrome - some of the players names are 'interesting'. I'm not sure if it's only done some of the players, but the defence looks very good, including Arda Okan Survivor, Aegean Lightening, Taha Six Brothers, and personal favourites Ismail Village Head and Meal Flag.

Mine is also nothing to do with Lampard but nevermind! 🤣

I'd bring Matsuki on for a Centre Back - get another body in midfield where somehow we're losing the battle against a team that can barely pull a squad together. The 3 at the back always seem to get in each others way! Get Downes sitting deeper if need be, the extra body will have us dominate Wed. They can't handle Scienza and Fellows.

Worst Long Holgate-ABK-Larios Udoh-Traore-Groebaek-Orsic BBD-JuanLove-Cornet Still praying Downs comes good!! ABK could've been one of the best, but ended up being a complete waster.
