I tell you what Heisenberg, you might just have something here. It all adds up when you think about it. I'm a bit annoyed to be honest but I'm still happy to have a club.
Why the hell would we 'tie' him to a new 'long term' contract which included a transfer clause allowing him to leave for less than he was already worth in the next transfer window?
I agree. We need to go at teams, stretch them. We are quite capable of doing so as we have proven twice in the last 7 days, so to go out and revert to this frustrating conservative non-expansive crap is very frustrating.
GTFI. Excellent performance. Everyone played well tonight but Boufal, replacement Sims and Yoshida were stand outs. Vvd just his usual outstanding self. Long needs a feckin goal to get some confidence going but tonight his profligacy did not hurt us.
Didn't see it tonight but his performances in other recent games backs up your view. He looked superb at first, strong in the tackle and never misplacing a pass. He's looked poor lately.
All very flat and crap TBH. Too slow and ponderous going forward, no spark and we don't look like scoring too many from open play. Still ridiculous that we lost that but if you don't kill teams off when completely dominant as we were in the first half that can happen. Mildly worrying that we are only 3 points ahead of a truly shyte Hull now.
Fair enough, different people different opinions. Personally I didn't think he looked ok and think he (and, hopefully, us) will benefit from going out on loan. Anyway we won so happy days!!
Sadly Rodriguez does still look way off the pace. He should have been hooked at half time if not before and his removal improved us. He needs to go out on loan to the championship or Hull/West Brom.
