Clever Fox

How could Daka miss that.

We look like we're playing for a 2-2 and think they've done well.

We're so predictable.

Let's hope the play on the front foot and not try to defend for 45 minute's

I hope it's per Goal scored.

Maybe but true. We have to come out fighting this half because I expect Stoke to pile in on us 2nd half and it's how we can handle them.

2-0 Can be a dangerous score, It all depends on which Leicester comes out in the second half.

A good half, lets see if they can keep Stoke out also. Maybe Daka for a 2nd.

That goal will do wonders for his confidence.

We've no midfield today except Winks.

What's up with Ricardo , he seems like he's had as few bevey's before the game. So slow ansd off the pace.

What an effort from Skipp.

Nice to see Mav try and pass the ball for a change.

The Lineup seems like Marti's early choices for the team. Interesting to see how they perform today after a bit of time to wrk with the Team.

He always seemed one of our more intelligent players. I'm sure he'll make a good job of Management. Maybe he'll make his way back here one day. Good luck to him.

I totally agree Jakub is the future. But it's nice to have an experienced Keeper who still offers something as backup, Unlike Ward.

Because everyone was backing in on top of him. What about the save he made also, He certainly hasn't let us down unlike many of the outdield players have.

I don't think Marti has the strength of character to take no shit from the players. Which is why he's not getting the best out of the team. The Manager has to build that winning mentality by fixing what's wrong game by game, Starting with the little things. Corner Kicks , Free kicks , throw ins etc. positioning around both boxes. Ball possession, Overplaying the Ball, Not letting the Ball do the work. These are things I expect to see improvement in over the weeks but nothing. I also understand he has to bring players onside also but there's a way to encourage players while giving them a rollicking too. All of which makes me think he just isn't good enough right now.

I like Jakub and thought signing Begovic was a strange signing. But seeing him play since coming into the team he's been excellent. He can also help bring Jakub on to the next level given his experience and leadership qualities.

I hate to see any player injured but that means he's likely to be here next season. As it will likely be April again he gets back playing.

His biggest asset is his speed because he's young, but he's got to learn to give and go, Otherwise he's going to get a kicking from some clogger who's much heavier than he is. Beating a man should be a last resort. He could learn a lot from watching Mo Salah or Rashford at his best.

Thanks, To be fair to him he's come in hitting the ground running so to speak. He's allowed us to play a 3 at the back and get the FBs forward in possession. Let's hope it's more precautionary and he'll be back soon.

Enzo is an elite manager and yet some on here thought he was rubbish because he didn't play it long. We wore teams down with possession and movement. When you think he done it largely with the players he inherited.

Any offical announcement yet as to how bad or long he'll be out. ? I wish him well, It's never nice to see a young player get a bad injury. That's 3 players in a Week we've lost.

That's a decent explanation but I think we're comparing like for like the only thing different is the systems used nowadays to my early days. In my days 8 and 10s were largely the play makers operating in midfield and the channels largely competing against there opposite numbers depending on who had possession. Now of course they can come deeper, but so does the Wingers and even CF. to find or create space or help out in defence. But they are still largely the playmakers. I can remember the great Biily Bremner and Giles for Leeds playing that way with Hunter playing the Defensive Mdfield role. All similar to Gerrard, Keane Robson. Then you had the other kind of 8, 10 like Cottee, Dickov, Lampard. Today Reid played in the channel behind Daka and Fatawu and JJ dropped a bit deeper and moved a bit more central to link up with Winks. As I said earlier, good players will find the space. But it wokrs best if they work together and make it look simple. As Reid did when he played Fatawu in and he crossed for the Goal. Without either having to beat a man.
