It’s on... Provide Utd buck up...

Correct. It’s the play station hipster generation I’m afraid. All stats and “support strikers”. When they score their goals and how many they miss, is just as important as bare stats. He’s not a bad player, but that wasn’t the argument. It was whether he’s produced a “good” return, I don’t think he has and his lack of quality is a contributing factor in our average season.

Awful miss against Brighton

What a load of Pony. Ings drops deep just as many times as Che when the play together and when Ings doesn’t play, Adams is the main man up there. What’s the obsession with stats, they’re for play stations. Wingers should be getting 9-11 goals a season, not strikers (whether support ones or not). Bringing it back to Redmond, that’s where he lets himself down. He should be aiming for double figures, his finishes yesterday shows he’s got the potential to do that.

They were in the third division thou.

What’s a “support” forward. Some sort of play station position? Or just an position invented to cover up a players lack of goals.

A good return? You're either taking the piss or you’ve got pretty low standards. He’s been average.

This is pony. He’s been a better singing than Boufal or Austin, and probably Long. It’s way too early to judge Adams and I assume you’re joking when comparing Obafemi. Why do you think he’s played so many minutes? Is it because he’s fuvking rubbish, or is it because 4 different managers see something in him?

Rio Ferdinand has just said the complete opposite. He reckons the closer they get to winning all 4 the harder it’ll become. The pressure to create history builds and builds. It’s probably why it’s never been done.

Depends how long it took him to get back in.

Ahh shit. We’ve just lost the “gave city the hardest game 2021” trophy. Peps just awarded it to Everton.

Utd anyone? History repeating itself?

How dare you!!!! I was on the floor of my lounge crying when we won that. I even had a tee shirt made “stop the count”.

Exactly. It changes nothing as far as Ralph’s performance is concerned. I’d expect a reasonably competent manger to beat a lower league side in a quarter final, Mark Hughes managed it. Making out it’s some sort of overachievement is noddy club.

Nobody is deriding it, you plank. Merely pointing out that beating a team from a lower division isn’t that big a deal.

Careful, you’ll be told to go and support city.

Close the thread, and place Ralph’s quarter final wining trophy next to his “5th place in 2020 calendar year” one. I haven’t been this optimistic since Mark Hughes’ team beat Wigan in a quarter final....

Good professional performance against a side going through the motions, tellingly their manager said “two or three didn’t give up”. Without Danny Ings we do lack quality in the final third, but you can only beat what’s put in front of you. Djneppo took his goal well, but he minced around most of the game. Armstrong, KWP & Redmond our best players today. Let’s hope the focus 100% is on the semi final. These opportunities don’t come around very often.

Can we swap him for Nlundulu. Fair play to the lad, they were getting a spanking and he put himself about.

Continues? He was fucking woeful the other day.

They’re a bit better than they were 2 hours ago.

Why? We could do with a few rattling some bones.

Is this Redmonds “Villa game”?
