Think there’s too much in the air for them to act on it personally. PSR, new “technical director”, Jan transfer window. They’re not going to act on it until it becomes a total crisis and going on previous form - too late.

As much as he was crap when he got the ball today, thought the quality of pass into him was also woeful. Everything overhit, under hit and not found quick enough.

Said in August you’d notice a total difference between playing Okoli over Vestergaard, when you’re at home in this league with the majority of possession. Low and behold he’s took 3 old dears heads off on the touchline and gifted Watford a goal against the run of play with his two left feet. Cracking.

Because they don’t want to upset Anthony.

They've not really had the option lets be honest its been shit or bust for the first 3. Lots you can level at the hierarchy but I don't think that's one of them.

Nothing new. How it basically goes is there are those that want young players involved, then there are those waiting to shoot that down, and take "we should player X, he's exciting and highly rated" as "We should play player X as he is going to be the messiah and turn the rest of these shitters into decent players". You'll see the same in the Monga and Page threads, next up Aluko, Next after that Evans.

I dunno “can I get you an uber to the nets” tickled me a little

If it is Man City, I'd see if they were willing to let Reigan Heskey fly the nest, will obviously have some sort of buy back clause as that's how they operate. But he fits the mould of what you're saying and directly replaces Monga.

Definitely a fresh rumour, I've also heard the same.

Not a great video knocking around on twitter of Duckett absolutely a***holed in Noosa

Some absolute waffle in here. People want the team built around our brilliant youth until the standard peaks and troughs of form that come with playing them.

Genuinely think we’d of done it last night had Smith not had the rush of blood to the head after two boundaries. Loads of coulda woulda shoulda’s over the course of the test. Top order barring Crawley should be ashamed, it was well and truly there to win yet again.

Agreed, @Dan your FM posts make great reading. You're a better man than me for going in to the leagues you do

Toylo is absolutely unbearable. The routine, the chalk, the whole spectacle

Crap again. That pitch was nowhere near as much of a batting paradise as our media/pundits banged on about in the 24 hour lead up to those sessions btw.

Don’t think I’ve seen a premier league team as bad at defending as these two in about 6 months

This crossed my mind, 05/06, Chris Brunt, Glenn Whelan and Marcus Tudgay.

Saw the Chalobah goal on one of the Sky match replay show’s recently and totally forgot it happened. That’s well up there for one we’ve conceded. Fatawu’s yesterday and Vardy v Liverpool our two best I reckon.

Actually a really intelligent footballer. Drops into some clever spaces to support when we’re struggling to play out and gets beyond Ayew when he drops deep.

Never knew his game was mainly winning the ball back, more so than his passing (especially considering it’s took a year to see it). I thought he was going to be Winks v2. Ngolo Skipp.

Nixon but a player we’ve been linked to for a loooooong time.

Found his best team of what he’s got. Took a while but he’s got there I think. Now to see if he can keep it going.

He’s in his best role as that main deep lying midfielder. When Winks is in the side he takes that role off him. Hope he continues this form, looking every bit a top player at this level.

After taking his man on (Luke Thomas) and beating him for the first time in his career
