Rubbersoul

I’m not coming for you or anything but I think if Alves doesn’t go on to make it here it won’t be down to lack of talent. The poor kid was literally assaulted on a football pitch. That wasn’t a normal tackle or accident.

No not at all. That post wasn’t aimed at you at all!

It’s very much a thing academy players do on their socials. They post almost a highlight reel after games.

I can’t say for definite as it would be impossible to go and look but there’s definitely a percentage of people on here who get excited when there’s a chance to criticise these kids (I realise Nelson isn’t a kid but feels like it to me..) The reaction to Aluko getting sent off was utterly embarrassing. Grown men going crazy and giddy because they can go I TOLD YOU SO!!! THE 18 YEAR OLD IS SHIT!!! Nelson was by all accounts poor yesterday or just at fault for a goal i don’t know. I couldn’t watch. Of course fans who like seeing Academy players involved are biased and less likely to criticise, but if I’m totally honest after the last few years of “senior pros” putting disgraceful performances in every week I don’t mind Nelson, Aluko, Page and even Silko Thomas looking shaky. If it means we’re actually building towards something. I think people forget we’ll still be a Championship side next season & potentially not much money to spend. We will need these kids. It’s not like we’ll be expecting them to jump up to the Prem. You even get accounts taking snide shots at Alves & Braybrooke ffs.

Haha sorry wasn’t trying to be a dick

Hirst is a Sheffield Wednesday product and Silko came through at Chelsea

We have been rubbish in every single game. Do you know how mental that is?

I saw enough from Aluko in 10 minutes to know he’s better than Thomas. And the kid got sent off

Anyone got any idea how we’re meant to be playing?

Worst manager in our history 👍🏻

Was that the worst kick off in history? Passed it backwards and instantly under pressure

Hahahahahahahaha ****ing hell ****ING CLEAR IT

Riley Carr seems to be involved in a lot of goal

I will watch because I enjoy punishing myself. Can see a heavy defeat and it all turns ugly. Would like to see Monga start today. Feel like we haven’t see him in forever.

Who said that? Didn’t read the post above

I wonder what’ll happen in January when his loan ends

Callum O’Hare scoring feels pretty nailed on

To be fair to Marti he backed Aluko & was positive about him post match. Worst thing you could do now is straight back in the 21s IMO. Keep him in the squad and stick with him

Technically not a Joseph assist but great bit of play! Pretty sure he’s been playing on both sides for Tranmere but definitely more of a RB.

Tranmere fans are loving Joseph. Was involved in their last minute winner. Played really well!

Jayden Joseph starting for Tranmere at Grimsby. Only just turned it on but first thing I saw him do was stand up to the winger and take the ball of him. He’s meant to be rapid but yet to see him bomb forward

Probably the wrong thread for it but seen his name mentioned. We were very average towards the end under Enzo weren’t we?

Put it this way, I’d much rather persist with someone like Aluko who will make mistakes and show his inexperience as oppose to the same players that have shown they can’t be trusted. It was the same with Nelson who had a bad game and probably should’ve given away 3 penalties. Not sure what I think of Aluko getting his first minutes away at Southampton either. Surely should’ve been given minutes off the bench throughout the season?

I just mean we’ve taken the piss out of them in recent years so if it was the other way round I’d be wanting us to batter them eventually if that makes sense. Was talking more from their perspective. I apologise for positing.
