Can't be just me that thinks he's genuinely turned up under Rowett? 

 

I don't care how much people hate him, if he helps us stay up I'm happy for him to play. 

 

I'm not sure how you actually squeeze him in our best 11 if JJ is fit to start. If he misses out purely tactically then fair enough. 

 

But I couldn't give a shit about anyone's personal grudges right now as long as we stay in the league. 

 

We're not staying up so long as we continue to play players like Winks, Ayew and Mavididi who clearly do not care.

 

Midfield 3 of Skipp, James and Mukasa is the only way going forward.

Hayden Hackney is not fit to lace Winks' boots but because Gary Weaver bangs on about him being "tHe BeSt MiDfIeLdEr ThE chAmPiOnShIp hAs EvEr SeEn" people buy into it.

 

Dont get me wrong, HH is a decent little player in a good moment currently but he isnt and never will be Harry Winks.

 

Winks is an absolute melt. An arsehole. But he's our melt, our arsehole. so lets get behind the arsehole and support. Up the city

Baffling. I'd take Hackney with a broken leg over Winks.

Isn't it funny how all the "back the lads" kpfc brigade are the ones who genuinely always say this, but are silent in the ground

And me!

 

I am starting to notice that the pro KP posters on here are generally ones I’d never heard of before.  Maybe Rudkin is making constant new user names?

This is where I'm disagreeing and, respectfully, I think your bias has overwhelmed you a bit. I can relate to this, I find myself getting infuriated at literally everything Ayew does even if other players do the same shit and I overlook it. I do relate. 

 

But, I'm sorry, Winks has been decent so far under Rowett and he's definitely putting a shift in.

 

I think there's a valid argument that he doesn't get in our best team on merit purely because of the balance of the team. I think Skipp is stronger defensively and our centre backs aren't good enough to only have Winks shielding. 

 

I think JJ offers more box to box and I think controlling the game, Winks forte, is less important to us now. I also think Mukasa is too good to leave on the bench and JJ is wasted at 10.

 

So believe me, I'm not saying Winks should be guaranteed to start. But I don't think he's been terrible under Rowett and I do think you've got the rage blinkers on. Which, again, to iterate - I complete understand and relate to. 

 

What are you seeing that I am not?

 

I think Winks is keen to get on the ball and play his little 5-10 yard passes but where have you seen him putting effort in to stop runners going beyond him?

 

On the ball Winks looks busy. I think it's because it makes him look better on the tele or to potential suitors come the transfer window. But actually watch him when we need to defend and he's static. He regularly watches people run past him and i've seen sumo wrestlers move quicker when a ball is played over his head.

 

It's "alright" when a player is providing important contributions to the team but he isn't.

 

A strong club would have banished him to the reserves months ago.

How about we stop criticising our players,  encourage them instead of booing.  Just maybe they might win a game :scarf:

Yes we should all get there an hour before kick off and applaud them through the players entrance with flower garlands an petals of roses for their contribution throughout the season.

No disrespect, but hear this bo11ox all the time.

If any of these tossers even get a good tackle in on an opposition they do get the crowd going.

This is all it takes, a tackle, a good pass, a good run...i mean ffs ive even heard people aplaud a backward pass to the GK.

 

What happens ON the pitch transfers OFF the pitch...Give us mugs SOMETHING to applaud or get excited about...

I'd be looking to play JJ, Winks and Mukasa along with Skiipp as defensive midfielder, which means that one of Mavididi or Abdul isn't starting.

Abdul's quality has been well off this season, hitting a couple of worldies in a season isn't enough.  Ipswich were hammering it down our right side because he wasn't putting a shift in to help Ricky, having said that, is he the winger to lose his place or should it be Stephy, who again has dropped off a lot from 2 years ago.

JJ and Mukasa are the best two players at the club this season, they have to play.  And don't know about Lascelles fitness, but though he cleared plenty Saturday, Okoli is just too much of a risk, just too many misplaced passes out from the back or poor decision making, he's a defensive liability and not to be trusted.  Even though we lost, Lascelles looked decent at St Andrews.

 

We're stuck with the rest, though good to see Daka get a goal and maybe feel he is first choice now.  Might make him play better, AND if he could stay on his feet most of the time???

We have to start winning AND the world would look such a better place IF somehow, we can win 2 home games in a row.  BUT we have to actually go for it, we are clos to having nothing to lose now.

I am almost certain that if the players play in the same way they have in the 3 away games and give 100%, there would be no toxicity. The Toxicity is generated when they don't run. Really, there is nothing stopping players running other than their own minds, if they cant do that its on them. Its one of the reasons people have been more patient with say Daka than Ayew, Daka you could never really say doesnt try.

Breaking news from inside Seagrave this morning" LCFC players say they declare their "respect, devotion and obedience" to Rowatt, and say that squad members are "ready for complete obedience and self-sacrifice in carrying out the divine commands of the Guardian Jurist in our endeavours to remain a Championship club".

 

Have they been listening to the IRCG, I wonder?

 

WTF!?

Not a phrase I use very often but a definite must win and probably the best chance we have of a win amongst the games we have left (excluding Sheff Weds)...

 

They have nothing to play for.

 

One fit CB who is a newish signing.

 

No strikers who know where the net is.

 

One of their best players suspended after being sent off today.

 

Confidence through the floor.

 

So obviously a 2 0 away win.

 

 

Yep, LCFC - the gift that keeps on giving!

It’s way more accurate but I’m not sure ‘Get Behind the Arsehole’ is going to catch on as much as ‘Foxes Never Quit’.

We've caught these at a great time. It's going to be impossible to retain any faith if we don't win tomorrow.
