sonyc 5,492 Posted December 3, 2016 Quick post. Pleased for Nelson today plus some welcome good performances from captain Howson and Pinto (potential pots already?). But I want our team to be built around Pritchard. He is an absolute dynamo. Great to see him played now and hope he stays in the team for a long time. No tinkering.

The Bristol Nest 513 Posted December 3, 2016 We have Wes and Pritchard and Maddison! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted December 3, 2016 We should remember that had he not got injured he would have been ahead of Ali in the Spurs first team conveyor belt. He has class no doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buh 0 Posted December 3, 2016 Yep he was an absolute joy to watch it has to be him OR wes not him AND wes If you do both then you are in lampard and gerrard situation and they are tripping up over each other Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iwans Big Toe 312 Posted December 3, 2016 He ran the show today and thoroughly deserved to be MoM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snake-eyes 13 Posted December 3, 2016 Was excellent today!For me i feel we could rotate him and Wes for the rest of the season. Helps to keep both fresh and both playing.We will need both and eventually Maddison this season!Snake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,580 Posted December 3, 2016 For me Pritchard isn''t the future, he''s the present. Wes will have to make do with the bench for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldRobert 38 Posted December 3, 2016 [quote user="king canary"]For me Pritchard isn''t the future, he''s the present. Wes will have to make do with the bench for now.[/quote]I agree. I don''t see Wes running a game to the extent that Pritchard did today, nor do I see Pritchard running up dead ends like Wes has a tendency to do at times, and then losing possession.

Chemical Bro 0 Posted December 3, 2016 Been saying exactly this. So glad he''s took his chance. Genuinely feel he''s an upgrade on Wes.Both have a massive part to play if it''s going to be a successful season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spillay 179 Posted December 3, 2016 [quote user="Buh"]Yep he was an absolute joy to watch it has to be him OR wes not him AND wes If you do both then you are in lampard and gerrard situation and they are tripping up over each other[/quote]Spot on Buh, the only time it worked was against the team marooned at the bottom of the table which is hardly much of a marker. Pritchard IS best when he can roam free in that No 10 role. Ok Brentford were shocking but there was so much quality in his passing and general play, he will surely be a handful for any team in this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Canary 668 Posted December 3, 2016 Agree with Buh. I feel we break more quickly with Pritchard as he is more direct than Wes and is quicker. Wes does things that other players don''t see and IMO is more likely to pick open a packed defence. Both have a part to play but yes I think we will gradually see more of Pritchard, and therefore less of Wes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,286 Posted December 3, 2016 Bloody brilliant today, Pritchard was like a awes on blue smarties!Saying that, Murphy was fantastic, his link up play with the superb Pinto and the calming influence of Dorrans / Howson combo allowed Oliviera to be involved, another player with a great game. A word for Brady too, his best game in a long while.Have to mention a solid game by Naismith, but he just looks knackered from the start.Superb high tempo game, well done all and AN got it right today, Pritchard / Murphy is our key to this season!

Van wink 2,994 Posted December 3, 2016 The Brentford fans won''t have been surprised to see that performance from Pritchard, he was a class act when he played for them, I was delighted when we signed him and have been so dissapointed that we haven''t seen much of him.We will see a lot more of the same from now on IMO.

morty 0 Posted December 3, 2016 Wes epitomised so many things that were wrong last week, slow build up, too much sideways passing and lack of cutting edge.Pritch was the exact opposite today. Wes has been a great servant, but his time is coming to an end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,202 Posted December 3, 2016 What with Pritch, Ja Murphy, Brady and Pinto on song we are seriously good going forward. So much faster tempo in the side when Pritchard is playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HertsCanary93 222 Posted December 3, 2016 I honestly feel that was one of the best performances I''ve seen in a yellow shirt in recent years. It truly felt like something was going to happen every time he touched the ball.I think it''s been hard for him being a young player but having a year out after a brilliant season on loan at Brentford. With some luck he can build on that performance and make the no10 position his own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Move Klose 303 Posted December 20, 2016 Seems strange that some players have a bad performance but still continually get picked (Brady) but players like Pritchard puts in a bad one and can''t make the bench for the next 2.Surely he''s a better option from the bench than Wes as he can also play either wing. Hoolahan is 1 of those players who should start or not feature at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted December 20, 2016 We have a decent squad. So the manager gets wrong when he uses it and wrong when he doesn''t? You can''t have it both ways just because he doesn''t pick the players that are your favourites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted December 20, 2016 Well we 10th, 4 points off the play offs positions. I would say he''s getting something wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,580 Posted December 20, 2016 I get the feeling Neil doesn''t really like Pritchard. I can''t think of any other explanation as to why he wouldn''t even make the bench. He seems to be on the shortest leesh of anyone in the squad - 45 bad minutes and he''s out of the squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted December 20, 2016 There are lots of things wrong, but some seem to change their tune about what, depending on what suits them at the time. If Pritchard was training well and warranted a place in the team I''m sure he''d get one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chemical Bro 0 Posted December 20, 2016 Dress it up how you like but whatever way anyone looks at it Pritchard was our main summer signing and has barely had a look in. Is that normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Van wink 2,994 Posted December 20, 2016 This one has got me stumped. I don''t see how we can afford to leave him out of the side. He must be injured or have a personal problem he is dealing with? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted December 20, 2016 Pritchard, Klose and Naismith...25mil worth of players we have brought in the last 12months that can''t even get into the teamYou can''t certainly say that Neil hasnt been financially backed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
