    He's covered LB well but is clearly a midfielder in an unnatural position, he got forward well but Hanley had to cover the  space he left a few times 2nd half.

    Once we have a natural LB we could have a choice of Sara McLean or Hayden from the bench which at this level is huge, the only thing we missed over last 2 wins was a player to bring on to make us more solid and defensive

    It's when I see fees like this I actually think we can compete.

    We always look at the price which we can't compete with,  but I see so many high transfer fees on pretty average players.

    If we were in prem and signed gibbs white and jed Wallace, I'm confident Wallace would contribute more at probably a 10th of the price.

    Our way isn't at fault, it's our scouting that has been failing up to now but more recent signings look more promising and hopefully the beginning of a more successful scouting network

    I'm not sure we actually played any better v Huddersfield as we did v Wigan, or even Hull.

    I'd probably keep the same team for Friday partly because when Pukki gets an injury it takes him time to get back up to speed and I'm not convinced you can fully recover between Tues to Friday 

    But we are also likely to have tired legs so a fresh Hernandez pukki rashica combo at 70 mins could be a match winner

    Sargent caused them problems last night but he still looks a donkey with the ball at his feet.

    He looks nervous and low on confidence, which is perhaps understandable, I'm sure a confident player would have shrugged off the red card challenge but he went down too easily I thought.

    But he did look excellent with crosses into the box

    Thing is, no one can say that the decisions favoured the big side when they both are.  I didn’t think the first was a foul, I’m not totally 100% on the second, it probably was but I’m a bit meh - it’s Chelsea.

    I didn't think the first was a foul although there's an argument offside Richarlison is in GK line of sight.

    Even though it would most likely benefit us this season ie aarons pen shout v Wigan, thank god we don't have VAR

    I'm know little about shares but if the club are talking about new investment, that can't just be Foulger selling his shares as, they are his share, so he gets the money not the club.

    Maybe it's buy these and we release more to give them more controll or maybe, if they are as thorough and committed as they sound perhaps they are buying these to get on the board to learn how the football business works here before obtaing control in 2 or 3 years

    He reminds me of Bruce Rioch, who also came with a highly respected coach.

    I just remember us trying to be solid, professional but had Bellamy as 1 source of light but I never really bought into his way.

    Looking back in think he did far better than I appreciated, and barring that Muscat tackle things could have been more successful.

    The 1 difference is our squad then was pretty average whilst Smiths squad is definitely in the top 6 in terms of quality and depth at least so I don't expect Farkeball but see us grinding out wins
