  1. Personally i didn't have an issue with edozie sub. Really people wanted useless garbage like A.Armstrong/Mara on? What disappointed me was not bringing Lavia on for the booked Elyounessi at 1-1.
  2. Nonsense, he hasn't been able to bring in a single player & his lack of options up the pitch really showed today.
  3. Dont agree. we were overloaded. There's 2 guys at the front and 2 at the back with one marker each. I don't blame Lyanco anymore than i blame Armstrong. Equally i'd say ABK shouldn't concede a corner when Cairney dives for a penalty.
  4. Perraud substitution said more about our bench Armstrong/Mara than about the manager. When perraud got put through but lacked pace and had to cut back and get tackled i was thinking i wish we'd been able to replace Edozie with Tella(but some austrian idiot loaned him out)
  5. Lot of positives from it but at the end of the day it is another possibility for point/s missed. Really need some reinforcements. End up replacing edozie with Perraud says a lot about our attacking options. Let's get Tella back for a start and then get a striker to compete/play with che. Really poor to concede from 2 set pieces. Frustrated we only brought Lavia on when we went behind. Probably that's my only criticism of Jones.
  6. Cmon get S. Armstrong on
  7. Yeah i don't really get Aribo as a wide mid. He seems unsuited to it for me. Hopefully we get S.Armstrong on for him.
  8. Pretty happy with the perofrmance. ABK and Lyanco looking good at the back. We've been much more aggressive. We just didn't take our chances. Adams & Edozie with lack of clinicalness and salisu with an awful header. Their goal, i do wonder about Bazanu on crosses. Is he too deep as didn't get there like last week. The corner, just poor not to mark the guy on the edge of the box and then an unlucky deflection on a shot going wide(when you need a bit of luck to go your way) Hopefully we can come out fast after the break and get the equaliser.
  9. There’s clearly a recall clause (otherwise kompany would have said he can’t be recalled) which means there wasn’t a complete agreement for the full season. it might not suit him but we’d look monumentally stupid if we get relegated whilst he continues to perform well getting them promoted. Don’t see any long run counter productivity other than annoying Burnley, which is of minimal importance.
  10. Seems like brentford’s toney might be out for a while. Wonder when our rearranged game will be?
  11. ha ha ha, Faes of Leicester is some finisher. 2 o.g's now.
  12. Some trick shot finish by the leicester player there, slicing into the top corner of his own net.
  13. I think part of the problem is the lack of pace in the team, which affects the ability to transition quickly forward and defensively. Perraud is no wingback. The midfield is slow, the strikers lack pace too. Hopefully we can sign/recall from loan some players that are better suited to it so we make the most of our depth at CB.
  14. Find that a weird attitude. 2 of the top 4 scorers in the premier league have murdered the championship. Adams whilst not profilic has scored goals. He may not be an Ings but he is by no means a failure. Should we not look at players from france because recently we've bought duds from there.
  15. I view Perraud as average, not the worst fullback but doesn't have much of a higher ceiling. Larios looks completely unready to play at this level. I've been wondering if we should get Jamal Lewis in on loan as competition. He's was playing at a high level at Norwich but the newcastle move hasn't worked for him.
  16. Utterly bemused that we have any interest in CB's. This is a club that spent a huge amount of money on 2 of them in the summer. We also have a further 2 CB's who are only out on loan and there looks to be zero chance of actually selling. At this rate we'll be able to put out an XI made out entirely of CB's.
  17. I've not got much knowledge of foreign markets. Also given we're last and there is a fair chance of relegation we need to be careful we are not signing players that are going to refuse to play in the champ if staying up fails. CB is the only position i'm happy with our depth. We Need a striker. Gyorkeres perhaps. Doing well in a mediocre champ team and scored against us last season. We need a centre mid. Not really got a firm thought here. I see Luton's midfielder Allan Campbell aged about 23 won several awards at their player of the season last year so wonder if Jones might be inclined to bring someone he trusts into the engine room. I'd recall Tella, which gives us much improved pace in the squad. If i've still got a 3rd, if we've still got a PL loan slot maybe the best player we can get.
  18. Have there been any transfer links to any of jones’ former Luton players such as the midfielder Campbell?
  19. 3. Relegation would be deflating but winning a cup would be nice compensation. 1. Don't really have an issue with losing 9-0 nil in principle. Staying up in principle is good too. My only concern is if it is just leaves us swirling the toilet bowl for another year in sunderland style
  20. So why aren't Fulham bottom of the premier league if playing in the championship equates to being awful, their players all played in that division last year.
  21. We should of course recall him. He's playing well and we are extremely weak and short of pace in the positions he can play. We loaned him out to help his development. That has worked. Letting Burnley continue to benefit whilst we get relegated makes zero sense from even a financial perspective.
  22. Thought he showed much more promise at full back than as a winger. Yeah so giving him a new contract early based on that, spending money on a Tiny kid of a left back and returning him to being an ineffective winger was all rather a mess imo
  23. I’m a big tella fan. He can cause team’s problems with his pace, the Brighton last season where he was involved in both jwp’s goals a case in point. Our current attacking options are so dire, it really should be a no brainer to recall him.
  24. I thought the comment on not seeing lavia since Liverpool was mightily odd. macca / bazanu maitland-niles dcc lyanco salisu kwp armstrong jwp aribo adams edozie
  25. One position we actually have depth is one where we are linked with recalling a failed player or bringing in someone new. Absolutely crazy if true.
