  1. Cantwell/Buendia must be in the mix this week. That's what's best for the team and that's apparently what Farke thinks is important. We keep hearing that no-one is bigger than the club but that I'm beginning to think that has a caveat - providing you stay in Farke's good books. I get that he wanted to send a message last week but as a minimum, they should have been on the bench, so that we could call on there creative skills, "for the benefit of the Club".

    Don't know what you're all moaning about. 

    It's a 90 minute chance to whine like kids about Rupp and Mclean, and if we lose its a win because you can all whine about them all night as well. 

    And with Emi being out the next 8 hours are a pinkun poster's whining pant wetting festival. 

     

    But for those with brains, this is a team to pack the midfield and counter with pace away from home against a team who will press. 

    Why are all the response buttons positive?  Can we get a  negative button for these sort of posts?

    As an exiled non-ST holder, I was hoping that a similar deal to the last time we were in the championship would be available, where you could buy a season pass to streams of all the games for around £100 - £150.

    £10 a match pushes this up to about £500 a season, which is some price hike (although understandable due to all the pandemic income reduction).

    I already have my season pass. I paid CAD $241. Just go to i-follow page and click subscribe.

    We need players who can step up, players who can get us promoted and perform in the prem. Not players who if we go up need replacing again. Trybull is one of those for sure. 

    Judging by our results in the PL this season, this argument is true for the whole team. 

    I liked Trybull and thought he worked well with Tettey, not so well with McLean but they are similar players in that regard.

  5. As others have said, I think the lack of attacking the ball when it comes into the box is the main problem. Its not just zonal marking.  Our defence has been poor for many seasons and a quick review of goals conceded (over the last few seasons since our best defensive record) supports that:

    2014/15 - 48 Championship (lowest conceded goals was 37)
    2015/16 - 67 Premier League (lowest 35)
    2016/17 - 69 Championship (lowest 40)
    2017/18 - 60 Championship (lowest 39)
    2018/19 - 57 Championship (lowest 41)
    2019/20 - 67 Premiership (so far - heading for a new low)

    Farke has been in for the last 3 years but has not chosen or been able to sort the defence out. Perhaps the lesson will learned for next year but the signs are not good.
