It was actually remarkably similar to Ralph's first match at Cardiff @Archers Road

**** game. Worse conditions. Vestergaard mistake.

Except we collapsed afterwards and Burnley are better than Cardiff.


Yeah, 1-0 wouldn’t have been that hard to swallow. 3-0 is another story though.

I still have total faith in Ralph, not so much in the quality of this squad.

Yeah the icing on the cake was the fact I changed my mind from a large bet on Burnley to win to a smaller bet on 1-0 as my insurance bet.

Agree on your last sentence too, apart from the obvious centre back issues I think we're really light in midfield assuming Mario goes.

It'd be nice if this Danso kid was the bollocks.

I don't think your winning this argument mate so let's just leave it there <laugh>

Your lad Alfie Jones has at least come away with some credit the last two league games. MOM against Doncaster and probably second best player on the pitch according to most supporters yesterday.

I think I was just was so pi55ed off yesterday that I probably failed to notice his contribution, although has to be said, he was one of very few players that I didn't criticise, so that's a positive and I noticed only what I could call his tidy contribution, albeit my disappointment at the team has not subsided enough yet, to watch back Burton's two goals. I think there first looked unstoppable, what happened in the second is more the question. But no, it seems your lad is doing well <ok>

Good to hear <ok>

Can't be easy for him playing for Gillingham tbf <whistle>

i honestly cannot remember when I last watched such a pile of shhite! All the hype to be dealt that. Some supporters suggesting we need to give the team time, well might be nice if those supporters actually turned up to a game, considering the gate was less than 5k yesterday.

Evans out? :biggrin:

Who you got in the cup?
 
My mate elbowed me square in the temple when Kane got our second. Fun times.

Club paid a nice tribute to Justin Edinburgh at HT.

Strange game for us in the end. Poch made some dumb selection decisions (dropping our best CB and benching our best player...) but ultimately got the job done in the end.

Took 65 mins for the Spurs fans who’ve been saying they wouldn’t be arsed if Eriksen left suddenly change their minds.

Without Eriksen you looked clueless tbh. Very little movement up front leading to loads of half chances and very little else.

If Eriksen does go you need Lol Celso to fill his boots immediately.

Fair play though, got the job done and a fairly straight forward 3 points.

Yeah I’ve already said I’d rather lose him on a free next summer than take £50m-£60m for him in the next two weeks as another season with him is far, far better than without.

Lo Celso judging by clips looks a class act but he’ll need time. And for me, the idea of Eriksen, Ndombele and Lo Celso linking up in an XI is sexy as ****.

He’s our best and most important player and key to our ambitions.

I assumed Lol Celso was the Eriksen replacement... wouldn't playing them both make you a bit weak in the middle? Sissoko and Ndombele look to give you the strength needed.

Not sure but just my thought, if you're playing 3 in midfield then 2 have to be strong and dynamic.
 
It's a team we're never going to play in the league though.

I'll take any lower league team away just so I can hopefully attend a non var match tbh.

it's so nice not to have var, I thought our goal yesterday looked a bit suss at first, I was so relieved at the time we don't have the technology, albeit as it happens the goal was good.
 
I've just seen they want 15 quid to watch that game, I thought it would only be a tenner!

Tickets for our match against Liverpool next week are a joke.

50 quid for a seat behind the goal or in the corner? You can **** right off Saints.

I can’t see Levy sharing your opinion as to the asset value of Eriksen mate. He either signs a new deal or leaves this month will be Levy’s view imo. It’s obvious you’ve already signed his successor. The problem Levy might have is getting him to go, as he seems to have set his heart on a move to Madrid that ain’t looking like happening.

I go to court in Newport about every 6 weeks. ****ing horrible place mate.

Never been to the stadium though so can't say what it's like.
