just can’t see us dropping Jobe unfortunately so it leaves only Ekwah to miss out really. As Neil is first name on the team sheet for me.
Peanuts these days given his experience and size (big lads always cost more). Nicely done. I wonder if there's a sell-on. See, a few more like this and we're back on track. It's not hard.
Just what people have been asking for ... ... ready made, knows the division and his best position. So, a signing no one can moan about
There's been more whingeing about people whingeing than there's been actual whingeing. People have had, and still have, legitimate concerns. Deal with it.
It has on Facebook someone pointed out a leeds fan said he’s very tall and slow. i prefer my views from @Scout73 to be honest
Yeah Neil playing deeper with those two ahead works for me, I don't think it needs changing now we've hit upon (what always seemed obvious to me) the right formula. Agreed that a new CM wouldn't necessarily be a starter but would be an option for games where we're getting overrun in midfield. Someone to help and instruct the younger lads on and off the pitch.
We beat a Stoke side who've just drawn with Ipswich, score three goals including a striker and stop Stoke scoring ... ... so the first thing some people say is that Stoke are the worst side we've played this season It's like they actually hate us winning because it takes more effort to find something to moan about.
Be good to be able to give Neil a rest. 30 starts this season and rarely gets subbed off. Played every league game (apart from Stoke when he was suspended)
He def isnt rapid but has enough pace. Reads the game well, is aggressive and is a strong lad. Hes not likely to go on lung bursting runs with the ball that huggins or cirkin can do but hes similar to hume. He keeps the ball moving quickly and can pass through the lines Hume is a good comparison, isnt quick but has enough pace but Hjelde is built like a CB
so has Clarke tho and they’d be hell on if he had a rest. Just doesn’t seem like a thing we like to do resting players and giving others a chance. I definitely agree tho but atm we are only playing one game a week and all the young lads should be able to handle that schedule.
I like Neil further forward. But I also like him deeper like he was against Stoke. Just shows what a good player he is, I suppose. Either way, I'm now thinking I don't really want us to sign another holding player. Someone like Styles, who can play throughout midfield, to give us extra options there, I'd probably be happy with.
Not for me, Ekwah one of the first names on the team sheet if played in the same position as Saturday.
We'll see how we get on against Middlesbrough. A couple of games with the new approach and an improved performance and we might be able to say there's finally some signs of change. This happened with Mowbray, remember - we'd think we were back at it only for the next game to be as poor as usual.
