Awful manager but we all knew that before we appointed the chancer. He’ll complain about the comments aimed at him by the media.

Surprised this thread is quiet. I appreciate that it’s Martin ball but O’Hora was way too casual for their goal.

In the last minute of the game, the “experienced” Burns needed to look up and square the pass less than 6 yards and he can’t even do that. Horrible signing, of many!!

Why is Thomas on our free kicks?

So you’re happy that Wout is starting?

If he’s injured, I’ll stand down but hideous reality that we have 3 wingers on the bench but zero CM’s. By all accounts Doyle can play as a 10 or an 8. Let’s hope none of Sammy, Louis or Lundstram get injured.

The problem with this thinking, history shows that it never pans out that way. When a player has a year left on their contract and it’s obvious that they’re not renewing, whether it’s unconscious or not, they typically “play it safe” to avoid any nasty injuries as the player/agent will be thinking about their next signing on fee etc. League One is a physical league and this drop off, would stand out even more blatantly.

Reid also being the go to substitution, if we’re the chasing the game boils my piss.

I hate that both Faes and Thomas are playing. Been a huge part of our free fall yet still playing a game for us in September 2026 is criminal.

I sound like a broken record but Cags made the PL Team of the Season, picked by the players themselves. I have no idea why we can’t appreciate that Rodgers deliberately mugged us off by picking Amartey ahead of Cags when we were free falling. Cags got this accolade when Maguire was playing week in, week out at United, Laporte (missed a large part of the season), Gomes playing every game next to VVD and others like Vertonghen, Rudiger etc.

Happy to help…..can reel off more fun facts, this time tomorrow too 🤓

Cags was named in the PL Team of the Year. Wout would only been named that by Hilde.

The Faes/Soyuncu comparison has always confused me. Other than them both having a ricket in them. Cags was superior to Faes in every way. Cags was rapid, Faes isn’t. Cags Cruyff turn out of trouble didn’t ever scare me, Faes is definitely not as technically sound yet oddly believed that he was. Faes is a poor man’s Cags, regardless of playing next to Evans or not.

Not disputing that but the hype that he also got when Spurs put 6 by us was quite funny too. Worth noting, that time period that you mentioned, Danny Ward oddly resembled a professional goalkeeper rather than the competition winner that he usually played like.

Similar to Faes’ debut. We weren’t as toxic as a fanbase but remember him getting a bit OTT praise for his debut when Spurs smashed us didn’t they?
