Arriba Los Zorros

Here's my thoughts on Cooper that nobody asked for or wanted: - he is consistently getting results that are better than the performances. At some point you have to question if it more than just luck (a la Carlo Ancelotti) - offensively, there is little plan, and we only seem to attack when our backs are against the wall. When we do go for it, although it's chaotic, we have seemed quite effective, direct and causing problems - defensively, despite Cooper making solidity a priority, we are lacking. This has been a major failing of his in my eyes. If you're going to set up to not concede at least have the decency to not concede - overall, I am Cooper Out. I think he has been effective so far but it still feels far too much based on luck. However, it is a gamble to replace somebody who is getting results. I would want to see clear evidence of a more concrete and effective plan, and give him a few more games up until Jan, before making the decision .

No need for that.

That's some turgid shite. Corberan used to be assistant to Bielsa, he can't have rated Bielsas football all that much.

Mike Newell

He's good, he got absolutely rave reviews at Norwich, he could be a really good player for us, problem is he's too similar to Winks so you're looking at one from two and they're both hard to drop.

He'll be like Bertrand, start a few games, drop to the bench, eventually drop out the match day squad, take forever to come back from an injury and generally hang around bleeding the club dry until his contract runs out. Why do we never learn. One if those signings every decide is bad and two in short space of each other is criminal.

Ayew is ok, he does have good feet and can control a ball with his back to goal which is often more that can be said of some of our other strikers. But he's not going to offer much more than 6/10 performances Édouard, too early to judge, like to think he's the profile of striker we needed but whether he is effective remains to be said BDCR, from what I've seen is a real stinker of a signing. He isn't technically good, nor quick, nor particularly committed, nor tricky. I dont get the point of him. Maybe he will improve but right now he adds nothing.

Our atmosphere has been pants for a few years now and I think you can say fairly comfortably we're far worse than comparable clubs, Wolves, Forest, Coventry etc. Don't remember this always being the case but it certainly is now. Have we been spoilt with success or is it just something about our fanbase that we're less passionate than Wolves for instance. It's a shame because we have decent numbers of fans and on the whole been a good club to support in the past few years.

Yup Matty was quality, robbed of a massive potential by injuries I legit think mid table Premier would have been his ceiling, but he had a very decent career regardless.

A bit of a presence up front, about time.

Good summary of him that, a nothing player. Waste of a squad place and money.

He's bang average and that's being kind, total waste of a signing.

We do need some divine intervention...

Skipp

This is exactly the type of striker we've needed for a long time. Hope we get him in

Ipswich looking likely to get Broja on a loan If they get Clarke that's Cajuste, Delap, Clarke, Broja, Phillips, Greaves, Szmodics and Johnson they've signed. I'd say with McKenna in charge they're likely to stay up which means we have to finish above Southampton and 2 others. With a points deduction can't see it.

They are about to sign Kalvin Phillips too.

1) Bertrand 2) Ward

Me too thought he was Nigel Francis Pearson!

Agree with this too

I hadn't seen her in action before these games and safe to say while being amazed by how talented she is, her attitude is awful and sets a terrible example for young kids idolising Her, and this will make me want to see her fail going forward. As an aside, that insincere facade of bowing down on the podium to the lady who beat her in the floor routine is one of the clearest displays of narcissism you could ever see.

Yeah that's true. It is spectacular to watch though which may be part of it Swimming is the worst culprit as you rightly say

Absolutely this.
