Which deadly striker should we have brought on instead of Daka?

@Aleksz No, but you can buy him and immediately loan him. So you just loan him with a fee commensurate with whatever his sale price would be on a years worth of amortisation.

That's it really. He's got the ire of the fans because we've played shit football and had runs of poor results. So to turn it round and get fans back onside he needs to do the opposite. A good run of results preferably coupled with good performances, Bristol, Ipswich and QPR upcoming. Win the lot and he's laughing. But he defo needs to be on the positive side in those 3. All 3 of those are above us, so good results could really change the outlook as well as the table.

Afcon starts on the 15th December so he can at least be taking Dakas place in the squad and then come on where needed.

Why do you assume this? For all intents and purposes this loan deal was reported as a straight forward loan with option. Which essentially means the ball is entirely in our court. We're under no obligation but have an agreed fee if we intend to sign him.

Who presses for 90 minutes?

Woyo came on at rightback with the score already at 3-1. Cartwright on at half time with Falkirk 2 down.

January is going to be massive for the automatic spots. A good window can set a team apart from the rest.

Usually you'd need to either have the parent club agree to it or you have a clause in the loan allowing you to send the player back for a fee.

We need a striker. Hopefully we can bin off Carranza and try again. But we'll need players up front no matter where we end up at the end of the season. We'll have 0 under contract in the summer as things stand. So that with the added fact that none of them score anyway, we need at least 1.

1 goal contribution (2g1a) per 138 minutes vs Fats (3g5a) 200 minutes. JJ (5g2a) 151mins...

Watch his ball for the James goal that sets Mav off. Class.

Stoke lost 4 of their last 5, dropping down to 6th. Mad to think that we're in 14th but only 3 points off them.

Well they were winning both until the abandonment so I suppose they're getting the shaft anyway. That's if it's on them. Can't really control the weather. Was it torrential rain like last time?

I'd only be bringing Braybrooke back if we let go of 2 of our midfield options, so Winks and Bouba. Braybrooke either needs to finish the season where he's at or got to a higher level team where he's going to play on the regular. Don't want him coming here just yet to be a bench contender that might not see the pitch.

If there's interest in him from a club offering a 4 or 5 years contract there's every chance. Doesn't want to end up in a Sensi situation where he gets no move and then no interest.

Linked up well with Mav too which is another thing we've never seen a lot of, as well as his decent crosses.

When the opposition have nothing left to do but go all out there's an element of inevitability to coming under a lot of pressure. If the lino gets it right we're 4 up at half time. We largely defended well, perhaps should have got Daka on earlier to give us an outball further up the pitch and win a few footraces. But 4 of our 5 subs were academy products and all did a job (Silks get some unwarranted stick just for playing for some reason) so really good off the bench if not a little late. Maybe he didn't want to put the inexperienced players on too early.

If we sign him for £5mill and Skipp keeps the form up then it won't take the piss when we say we've got a midfield pairing worth £30mill!

Scored, put in some good dangerous passes and won a lot of tackles, great all round performance all over the pitch.

Skipp again...

Bush kangaroo Motm.

Anybody who doubted him. It's gonna be fxxking carnage!
