I thought he was quick as well and strong to boot.

In my opinion Chaplow spends far too much time far too far forward to be considered as a central midfielder plus as I've said before (and been slagged off because of it) his tackling is far too hazardous,getting a yellow a few minutes into the game for a kamikaze tackle isn't on,it means that he has to rein it in for the next 80 or so minutes.You can't have a midfield of Ox,Chaplow,Hammond and Guly because none of them can tackle correctly and they are caught out of position far too easily. Recovery midfielder is a serious job and you can't play that role if you spend over half your time in the opponents box.Adkins has got to rein in Chaplow's attacking appetites when we're 4-2 up away from home.

Lallana and Morgan both create time and space and can hold on to the ball until they can use it safely.Many of our players do not have these attributes,they can hustle and bustle and huff and puff but they haven't the class to play negatively in a positive way (if you catch my drift).

Lallana as well to some extent if I remember correctly.

Agreed but I'm not sure that it will happen. I think AOC's entourage will make a big fuss if he's not maintained in the first team on a constant basis. I don't think he's contributing as much as he was a while back and that it's weakening our side towards the end of games.The Euro 2011 must be a big target for him and not being selected week in,week out would probably be detrimental to that.

How do you work that out??

4 from 2 is a decent return,5 from 4 well not so much but we're still in the mix so it's OK.We'll need another 44/45 though so the margins for error are shrinking.Brighton,Bournemouth and Charlton matches will decide between automatic and play-offs IMO,we probably need to win 2 out of those 4.

Here we go again. How many times is that now then?? The story surfacing I mean.

Although the stream got a bit sticky in the middle of the second half and may have distorted the action a bit I'd say that our CM pair spent too much time bombing forward even when we were 4-2 up.At that point you've just got to play triangles and keep the f*cking ball.Utd showed us how to do it last week,you just sit in the middle of the park and pass the ball from foot to foot,back forward,round and and round. When someone gets into a good position to threaten you give the ball to him in a safe way,you do not hoof it 50 yards up into the sky and hope you win the header.Still it was a good game and we didn't lose so a bonus there in seeing it on the old PC..

Agreed, I just can't see how the ref gave that as a penalty, shoulder to shoulder and nothing more. Then again if it's not a penalty and Chaplow falls forward and not sideways he has to go for diving doesn't he?

Arse were down to 10 with a DCM gone, makes a lot of difference.

so do I,you could make 10 Barnards from a Mackail Smith

In fact he needs to look in front of the back 5, when you're 4-2 up away from home you need someone to put his foot on the ball and calm things down.

I guess because we keep going forward.Didn't see their 2nd penalty but our second looked very generous.

would a f*ck it be in order at this time?

benjii is his mum

the one posted up is OK though.

Harding not so much because he's not a regular in the ref's book but Chapper's tackling is sometimes diabolical and he'll have to watch out in the 2nd half.Thought Guly doesn't look at ease and Seaborne is too slow to deal with threats like Mackail Smith, Fonte seems to be on his case now though.

anyway Spyware Doctor said it was dodgy,then again SD is sometimes a bit over sensitive.

no we won't, look down.

and to think I gave up watching a 0-3 sounds like rope a dope.

Our results against them will make all the difference but we have to stay abreast of them results-wise up until then. I just don't fancy today's game because of Posh's ability to score goal and what I see as a weakened midfield for our side.Chaplow and Hammond going wanderabout against Posh makes me apprehensive at least.

totally indifferent, this is about Bournemouth,Brighton and Charlton anyway. We have to match their results or do better.

Never mind a win will put us straight, wish we were at home though.
