trooky

We're not selling an entire squad and as fans if we don't find any rappochement between the players then the atmosphere will just become more toxic and in this scenario we will be relegated. That isn't the action of a supporter, wanting the worst for the club just to despite the players.

Just hope Spurs move for Eze allows us time to find a replacement for Bilal. I've no idea what our DOF is doing

We can't play him any more he's too slow. Thomas, Vesty and JJ were all out paced by Preston on the break yesterday The defence needs a real injection of pace.

We need to protest like Wednesday fans, arrive 5 minutes late or something , and then support the team and every player 100% during the game. These players are spineless, with so many contracts expiring and if were not careful we'll be in a relegation fight.

Agree, and he's also performing in front of fans that want Daka, Faes, Vesty, Winks, Thomas, JJ, Soumare, Skipp Choudhury and Ayew all to fail and leave the club. Its no atmosphere to out so much pressure on a 16y year old

One thing that struck me yesterday after Monga scored his goal, only Fatawu partially congratulated him, nobody else looked like they even cared that a 16 Yr old academy product scored his first senior goal for the club which is incredibly odd. We look like we have no team spirit, no characters and zero leaders. If the playing staff isn't refreshed before the window shuts I seriously believe we're in a relegation fight.

It's obvious that booing players extremely low on confidence doesn't help. Unless they've behaved like Alexander Isak and actually refuse to train or play the abuse they're getting isn't deserved IMO.

I've just seen the extended sky highlights and only Fatawu congratulated him. That's absolutely disgusting from this team and says so much about the dressing room, lack of leaders or team spirit. It looks like only one or two of this team actually want to be here and have got the character to play for us. We're in serious trouble this season unless we can replace and recruit at least 5-6 players.

I've only seen the sky highlight of his goal but it doesn't look like any of the players close to him like Daka, Ayew or anyone even celebrated it with him? Is that for real?

Yep stats back you up today he was shit. If only we could chuck them in the bin but in all seriousness it doesn't look like like we will sell any of our players or replace them before the window shuts. Its an impossible task for Marti

I don't like any of our strikers or midfield, Ayew needs runners off him, but Winks, Soumare and BEK all want it to feet and also need runners. I would only play BEK as the deep midfield creator and try a find some kind of balance with a ball winner and box to box with what we have left. Daka runs, and we all know the rwst

Yep we desperately need strikers and new midfield

Soumare has been better than Skipp in both games this season and he's better on the ball and passer than Choudhury. Even with Bouba we should be dominating possession against Preston.

A goalkeeping disasterclass from Ward today.

Is that you Marti😂

Really, at least it's something different. I always find in funny in the pre-match forum, most posters pick 95% of the same team as the manager and then when it comes to the match forum they're slagging the manager for picking the same players.

I think he could play in a 3 with BEK as playmaker, Choudhury as a destroyer and Mcateer as box to box to run beyond Ayew as the deep 9. Page could play this role but I would try Mcateer first because he's more senior and Page can't physically play 46 games. I don't think any combination of Soumare, Winks, Choudhury or Skipp works in a 2.

I would play 433 Stol JJ or Ricky if fit Nelson Faes Thomas BEK Choudhury as a midfield destroyer Mcateer as box to box runner Mavididi Ayew Fatawu If Mcateer isn't working then bring on Page The subs who feature would be Alves, Monga and Winks because we don't have any other attacking options

Has he played as a striker in the academy?

Our aim is promotion, long term our aim is premiership stability again, this squad has prooved under inept managers they're not good enough for the PL. Its all about the timing, I still think we will need some of them this year because our hands are tied financially and if we replace players that can do a good job in the Championship we're unlikely to replace them with premiership quality this seasons. If I was DOF this season I would get rid of the players who aren't good enough for their position or surpless. Coulibaly, Souttar, Soumare, Choudhury (CM), Skipp, Wanya, Decordova-Reid, Daka. If we loose Winks, BEK, or Fatawu then we have to replace them. Then recruit 2 new midfielders, and 2 new strikers, but Nelson, Alves, Monga, Page and Aluko should get plenty of game time. Once we're back in the PL try and overhaul the squad to improve the quality. The only players I wouldn't sell would be BEK, Fatawu and the academy lads I mentioned.

Yes, I know. It was more of a general moan, according to FT we need to replace 90% of the squad because they're shit, lazy, they're attitude stinks, they don't want to be here etc....

So far we've shifted 3 players and recruited a geriatric keeper for the veterans. I don't see us shifting the 10-15 players that FT wants rid off in the next 18 days.

Last night he's wasn't as bad as you made out, made more key passes and successfull final 3rd passes than anyone on the pitch. He's not going to be the difference of us getting promoted or not promoted this season and will be fine in the championship. We need a whole new midfield and strikers before we think about a left back IMO.

Huddersfield don't have an academy they closed it, so none of their young players have been with the club before the age 16.
