It's a good goal but it's some horrendous goalkeeping. So far out and so much time to watch the flight of the ball. I'd go as far as to say Danny Ward would have saved that

fook off:mad:

 

Ward would be wrestling with the corner flag:brendan:

Those talking about the fee just haven't adjusted their mindset to 2024 transfer fees. 

 

Good post above comparing it to 1m signings from back in the day. It's exactly like that. 

 

4 points (that he has won us now) is absolutely huge for our survival hopes. It's quite obvious he has already proved his worth and will continue to.

 

 

It's the way transfer fees are now amortised for PSR though. He's on a 2 year deal that's up to £8m, so £4m per season. That's the same as what we've paid for Skipp on a 5 year deal.

 

That said, it's the Reid deal that looks mingin' business currently and as most of us said at the time, we didn't need them both. We're saddled.

It's pains me we didn't offer Albrighton an additional year and rotated between him and youth talent, rather than lumping out on Reid for 3 years.

Albrighton couldn’t start consistently for West Brom 18 months ago. He wouldn’t have been anywhere near standard now. 
 

Kasey McAteer is the player for that rotation role.

I think we'll very likely look back on the Ayew moments as ones that saved us if we do stay up. I'm just glad he's done as well as he has. Reid has been everything we worried they'd both be. 

 

I know the bar is very ****ing low these days but I wish every player had Ayew's professionalism. Not asking for a lot. 

The only possible redemption I could see from Reid would be in the Championship. 

 

There were clearly a few panic buys late on to satisfy Cooper and the fans.

Agree with you there, but devils advocate here, has Reid done anything more?

No, he hasn’t done anything, but don’t think we need either of them in the squad, really.

It’s a stretch to think Ward would save a shot on target tbh

that last few games he came on, me and dad sat in C1, you could see as he ran the to the byeline and wrappes his foot around it. I really think some games put him on with souttar up front for last 15/10 we need a goal.

Now injured bloody international breaks......both him and Fatawu sent home both apparently injured.  Ayew has a knee problem..sent for an mri scan not good.

Apparently, he played the whole game against Angola. Of Course, that means noting. Fatawu went off afterwards 40 mins, though. 😡

Abdul was wearing a knee brace.

Ghanaian news sites reporting that Ayew’s knee injury is significant. They also report that his Ghanaian team mate - Issahaku, also has a serious injury. 

To confirm Ayew’s teammates full name is Abdul Fatawu Issahaku 😬

Utter dogshit today. 

 

And that's being generous, I think. Wouldn't have been averse to Stephy coming on for him at HT. 

Genuinely awful.

His game is winning fouls, holding up the ball, linking passes etc 

 

Everything he did just didn't work today. You can see what we wanted him for, but he was awful.

he's really good coming off the bench but can't start, at least not on the wing but there seems to be an issue with Stephy, he doesn't look fit

Bring him on for an impact etc absolutely, but starting, especially in a wide role isn't his game anymore
