Steve Cook missing from centre back as well. Isn't that their 1st choice pairing out? (along with Elphick)

Got a goal & an assist in a 3-0 win earlier today.

I think he had a mixed bag, but the Bournemouth move has worked out like a dream for him. Read some stats a few weeks ago, and at the time I think he was right up there with number of passes & distance covered per game. Certainly deserves a good reaction on Sunday.

Had to dig deep into the archives to find this thread. The kid seems to be doing well for himself - Good to see.

Paul Bracewell has been confirmed as Sam's assistant.

Hopefully they pick a strong team in the Europa, play the high tempo pressing game to perfection against Rubin Kazan and are then knackered for the weekend.

Think Cortese ended up paying a fee for him. I'm sure there are loads - but Dean Richards must be up there.

Brendan Rodgers can come in and replace him. He'd love it.

Signed in July 2006.

I certainly feel Jack would have been better off playing every game for Swindon in league 1 rather than just playing 26 mins in the championship.

Let us know how he gets on, mate.

My favourite line:

Cheers for the update S-A. Pleased to see Clasie get through 60mins.

Will be very difficult game against a side looking very dangerous & have only lost once all season. Lots of pace & power and will look to cause us big problems on the counter attack. Vardy / Mahrez / Schlupp will have to be dealt with. Only Man City have scored more goals than them in the Prem this season - but they have let in 15 goals. Fingers crossed all our players come back fit.

This.

Agree about him needing a loan move. He's not been making the bench - And that's when Clasie has been injured. Just needs to find a team who plays good football, and will play him.
