Academy coaches are still helping out with the goalkeeping. No noise about a new appointment in that department - but said coaches haven't been listed on the website as now first team coaches either.

Choices on captain are a bit bizarre at the minute, players have just been handed it based on how long they've been here. Vestergaard shouldn't be anywhere near the armband yet took it vs Weds, Mavididi taking it last night once Hamza went off. Doesn't look like much thought or creativity has actually gone in to this "leadership group" at all.

There's people on here still spelling Fatawu's name wrong after two years, Looking forward to the attempts of this one

I know some are writing Nelson off, but it’s a bit early to be talking about a career in punditry instead, no?!

Can’t fathom the bloke. Thought he’d fall into the Vestergaard, Winks or Faes bracket of looking pretty good at a lower level despite their premier league struggles.. but we’ve played a Sheff Weds in crisis and Huddersfield’s second XI and he hasn’t imposed himself on either of them. Joke of a footballer.

“If he starts Skipp or Soumare at the weekend then he’s in serious trouble” Who is it you actually expect him to play in midfield with Winks at the weekend then? We have 3 CM’s, one doesn’t want to be here and the other two look like non league players. Like others have said the blokes hands are tied.

Winks defo resisted doing a Faes in his celebration there

Because he’s a 16 yo on a yellow card.

This thread is really weird, even by usual match day thread standards. Some of you are desperate for us to not do well this year.

Spot on.

Yeah. Sky sports + channel also.

Thought he was alright apart from his ability on the ball, pretty poor - which is integral when coming up against a team sitting in like they did yesterday and ultimately why he brought Faes on instead. I get Vestergaard has got some of your back up, but if you can’t see how important a player like he is in trying to break down a team like that yesterday (of which we’ll face many more) then I don’t know what to tell you. I’d bet that Nelson and Vestergaard are the pairing by the end of September.

People can keep saying we’re weaker than we were the last time we won it all they like, because I don’t think it’s as difficult of a league anyway.

Are we supposed to be worried about these two?

Presser today? presumably announced then.

Was never going to be more than 20m realistically in the current state of play. Clubs aren't exactly queuing up for him. Happyish with 18m. Hope there's a decent sell on in there.

Odd because it looked like they'd photoshopped the logo off the shirt last week, now it definitely looks like its been photoshopped back on, so what was on the shirt in the original pics in the first place farcical.

Equally, his agent is also daft if his client goes for £5m plus to the league above and they're not demanding at least 15-20k imo.

Be amazed if it isn't Ricardo. Nelson and Hamza vice captains.

Yep this thread ain't lasting.

Had to be Siraj again, like him or loathe him sport needs characters like that.

Does winviz take into account Woakes has one arm

Chris Woakes I am in love.

Brook finally having the standard lapse of concentration, Bethell and Smith shitting themselves, Letting the night watchman having way too long at the crease, so many small factors have played their part.

Relentless amount of nibbles in this thread from you Stan
