Back to the draw. They gave us the wrong number last round and last night they had Lennon on the right picking the home teams. As far as I can remember it was always presenter then who next to them picks home team then whoever on the right picks away team. They even put the balls after the draw in different rows. As if they didn’t practice it.
who are your rag tag bottom feeders playing next in the league cup? oh yeah.. you got bombed out months ago… levels Monty levels
I think we **** the bed a bit with him He started as LW and then we swapped that with Targett... which is all a bit weird. Thought everyone slagging him was harsh, what did he do wrong exactly?
Looked alright if a bit out of his depth. Will take him time but he’s clearly a left back and not CM or LW. Swapped with Joelinton quite quickly then eventually with Targett because he was just uncomfortable. HT change was vital as we had a shape about us. Tough night for Miley too but great experience, these lads are 17 & 18, so we can cut them an awful lot of slack.
Did make me laugh towards end of game commentator was bugging him up for about 5 minutes saying how incredible he’s been, Grealish hasn’t gone past him etc… and as he’s speaking Doku just spun him and absolutely did him. Classic commentator curse I thought he was solid enough although don’t know if that’s also cos Grealish wasn’t fully fit and all he wanted to do was standard Grealish of get t he ball. Slow everything down, wait for defender to get there do a few shoulder dips then pass it backwards.
Atmosphere was quite good where i was even first half, quite a few lads trying to get songs going and the whole corner were joining in at times.
