Clever Fox

Facundo for Hamza or even Faes to get a grip on the Ball.

Who's left ?

On the plus side we cant get any worse second half. Ruud will sort it out at HT.

Hamza again

We need Mav to get on the Ball more to relieve the pressure.

A training ground Goal.

The forwards are getting very poor support from midfield.

Yes nearly as bad as us, Though a lot of ours can be attrbuted to Coopers Tactics. Ruud has done the right thing in going for experience at the back with what he has to pick from. This is making us a bit tighter. The loss of Wilf and Soumare might hurt us , I'd go with Faes in front of the back 4 with Skipp as they'll both put a foot in and are not too slow. I just fancy Mav to get a Goal today, Hopefully the winner but I'd take a Draw right now.

While I'm enclined to agree, Vardy I feel is going to run him close. Let's wait and see.

Newcastle have been as generous as us at the back this season. It's Christmas maybe they'll give us an early present. We can get at them I fancy Vards and Mav to score today. Get the Party started early.

This is exactly the point. He's going to be highly coveted in the Summer assuming he doesn't pick up an injury. I'd love for him to stay here for years to come. But I also wanted Enzo to stay also for a long time too. Sadly that's how football is right now. Contracts mean little. Maybe just, RVN might encourage him to stay longer. We live in hope.

Looking at them the other night there Keeper was very poor and that's not the only time he's cost them in games. Emery is serious about winning things there and won't put up with mediocrity. Wheather Villa would pay the money for Mads is another thing, But I'm sure Emery would love to have him at Villa.

Would you really want to wear somone elses old Slippers.

Firstly, I'd hate to see him go. Wouldn't it be great if he stayed and created his own legandry status here. Realistically he'll likely go to Chelsea with the Enzo connection. Or Utd with the Ruud connection. I predict that Villa will be in for him also. along with others. I wouldn't rule out Man City either. Chelsea paid a reported 71 million for Kepa, I would'nt let Mads go for less.

Hopefully Winks and NDiddi are back for this one with Skipp to make a solid midfield to protect the back line. I'd take a Draw again right now.

We were a little fortunate with the draw in that we had 3 shots on target all game and scored 2 goals. The best part of it was despite being outplayed for most of the game we kept chipping away hoping something would happen for us. Coady done well along with Vesty. VK nearly laid on another goal but was poor for the second goal. NDiddi and Soumare done well protecting the back 4 but lacked support from Ajew and El Kanousse at times. I thought Ajew was the right choice to replace Facundo but he was awful the first half. He offered nothing in defence and nothing going forward. El Kanousse was very good today but he needs to protect the ball better when in possession, And try and be a little more physical in challenges. Vardy never gave up despite having little of the Ball all game but came up trumps when needed again. Mav is struggling a little lately but never gives up which is a big plus as you never wuite know what he's going to do in possession. But it was his constant pushing and probing which helped with the breakthrough. All in All , More work needed but a Draw is a good result as points are what we need more of.

There's no doubt He has all the Tools necessary to be a really top Player. I agree if Ruud can convince him to get on the Ball and play he'll quickly become a top top player.

We've got to be stronger in the challenges.

Why does everyone turn back with the ball.

I'd take a draw right now.

It's never going to happen.

Our passing isso poor, Making a lot of our own problems.

Mav on for Ajew in the second half. It will push them back.

Our passing isso poor, Making a lot of our own problems.

Ayew is a disater today.
