Such a helpful contribution thank you

The person I was originally responding too said not to take any of it into account and that's why I responded I said it was extreme I know it was nonsense I was making a point

It really isn't they are both defensive Central midfielders

By good I mean stable we have lost that money because we have had owners willing to invest and keep investing it the club isn't short of money if it was we wouldn't have been able to spend what we have on players the last couple of years. Defaulting on payments means you are in that bad a state you can't afford to pay how is that not worse? Neither is good but surely defaulting on payments is 10x worse especially as it effects other clubs as well

Skipp has only really impressed me in the place games all of the others he played including the cup game I think he looked average at best. However maybe that is down to just needing some time to settle in. Like o said for me it is a toss up between him and ndidi starting they both played well last game I would be happy with either of them just not both. Maybe I have been a bit harsh on okoli but I think he gives the ball away too often, also my main point was I really think vesterguard should be in the team for the reasons I stated, if he dropped faes and played vesterguard and okoli I'd be happy to see how that works but I know that Feas and vesterguard play well together

Yes but I thought we weren't taking into account previous records because they weren't here so it's not the same. Yes I am being purposely difficult to prove a point. I dont completely agree as I think you do have to take previous records into account but I do see the point of giving him a little bit more time here

Skipp has had one good game out of the three he has played and was rightly criticised for being awful in the previous two he definitely has not already established himself as one of our best players Vestergaard being dropped from the squad is a stupid decision by cooper he is one of if not our best CB by quite some distance I also didn't say this is what I think Cooper will pick, I said I think this is what we should pick

Okoli has had 1 good half and looked dreadful every other time he has played, however the main reason I'd drop him is to get vesterguard in as it has been very clear in the last 2 games we currently have no one in our defense who can pass and act as that link between the defense and midfield/attack and I think that is something that is needed and something vesterguard provides It's a toss up between skip and ndidi they both played well last game I'd be happy with either starting but not both

I said at the time when people were making fun of forest for that tweet even though as you said the tweet was probably ill advised I completely agreed with it and some of the decisions going against you were clearly wrong and biased. I was hoping forest wouldn't back down from there stance of critiquing the refs and league because I believed it was about time some one did as it is clear for many teams who are not currently favoured by the Premier league get bad decisions going against them and te PL have made no effort to improve or change this or general refereeing standards as it helps them have thi gs go their way

I'd play something like this Hermansen Ricardo. Vestergaard Feas. Vk Ndidi. Winks Fatawu Buonanotte. Mavadidi Vardy

We may as well not look at the record of any manager before hiring them if we are going to think like that. Extreme example but let's hire Rooney because his previous jobs haven't been here so you can't take any of them into account

Genuine question how is defaulting in payments, which is likely caused by genuine financial mismanagement and the club being in a poor financial state less of a punishment than a slight overspend on allowed losses but the club still being in a good financial state?

They don't hate us we are a money draw for them as a club that gets a huge (for the championship) commercial draw so they want to keep us there as long as possible. That being said after us already beating them in court twice do they really want a third go just so we can beat them again?

No I think he believes JJ is better, but if you look at the goals we have conceded this season 90 % of them have come down JJ's side and at least 3 have been directly his fault. At this point after a player has made this many errors and you are still refusing to look at the alternative who we know is a very good player you have to wonder if Cooper is the problem

Yes like I said I think there is a difference between big or in our case relatively big club and which club is better But yes it's arguable and everyone will see it differently

Reat article and genuinely interested in your opinion I know you state he changed to a 5-3-2 later in the game but as I noticed in both this and the villa game it's almost like he is starting with one as well. This was probably more notice le in the villa game than the Palace one but its almost like he is playing Justin as a 3rd CB and the back 5 being set up as VK( wing back), Feas, okoli, Justin, fatawu/mavadidi (playing really deep as wing backs) Then 3 DMs skip, Winks, ndidi And vardy and ayew up front Not sure if you noticed this too? But it's almost like the wingers are playing so deep they are almost wing backs

Because we have won stuff and in the last 10 years been in the top 6 three times and top half 5 times. We also have a bigger fan base than most if not all of those clubs mentioned. Therefore we are currently a bigger team than them we are just having a bad period at the moment and bigger shouldn't be confused with better. But these things mean that we do still have a better reputation than alot of middling clubs and a bigger pull for players from other leagues. But this only counts for anything if it is used properly and the bad period dosent last for too long as the reputation will go away as quick as it came

No matter how much I want Cooper sacked and I really do I think he is useless it is always better to win and get points. Hoping we lose or draw just so the manager gets sacked is stupid I expect us to lose under Cooper but always want and hope for us to win

It was being reported by the mirror a couple of days ago

It didn't work in the Tottenham game when we were sat back and defending in the first half is when they were all over us it was only once we were behind and decided to have a go in the second half that we looked good. The attempts to defend have failed everytime we have tried it against Totenham (first half), Fulham (first half) and now against palace. We look much better when playing our creativa players and trying to take the game to the other team so we should do that more often I thought that would be obvious to anyone with half a footballing brain.

Your right we should just sit silently and think if we keep playing like that we will be alright as we slowly sink further down the league and get relegated again

I actually believe that was purposeful, although a huge mistake that I wouldn't have done, the choice was to pack the centre and the box and believe that we can stop them getting on the end of crosses rather than leave people outside to stop the crosses coming in

Not really well only if you were in front of the ball when it was played and came back to get it

I don't hate him just think he's shit, I wish I could be as shit at my job as he is at his and get paid what he is
