A full back playing in midfield ahead of him tonight. Needs another half a season in the championship in my opinion
Going to suffer Pompey V Wednesday. Looking at that first 11 for Pompey is grim. Not difficult to see why they are where they are. It is not a championship level starting 11. I am following Mousinho as a coach, but he has his work cut out to keep these players up.
Good support from Wednesday at Portsmouth as it's Friday on Sky ... ... they've started singing 'My garden shed' though
8 mins in and this is a horrible game to watch. Agricultural doesnt do it justice. It is just kick it away all the time. No calmness. No willingness to take a touch and play.
And idiot boy hasn't stopped ringing that f*cking bell He rings it no matter what's happening ... ... how is that offering any support.
Two poor teams, I half expected Wednesday to do okay this season after the way they ended. Ugbo not even starting after the clamour for him
You told me about him recently. I have changed my opinion. He has served whatever purpose he had years ago. Time to move on in terms of how support is shown. Imagine sitting next to him
Something shocked me in the Pompey game. They have recalled a young lad, due to injuries I assume, from step 9. Step 9 to championship is like a lada to a lamborghini. No offence to step 9 at all, but wow, it shows where they are in terms of their squad. I was shown the door as a coach last season from any proper level, which at the time was academy u18s at the best. I am on old twat really and time to let the younguns do their thing. To be fair they are much better than me and my time has gone. However, I am helping out a step 7 side who have new coaches in. A bit of an old fart to help them with session planning and the like. They have some talented lads in that group but none I would put forward for anything above national league level. The gaps are enormous. Feel for Pompey (tiny bit) if they are at this sort of scratching around level to fill a bench. Feel even more for the player tbh. Sounds like he has missed out on FA Cup round 1. I hope he gets a chance at that again. I had the pleasure of playing FA Cup prelim, and one 1st round game as a very late sub. Bloody brilliant it was.
I was just contemplating this, especially the Portsmouth style. Reminds me of a 90s championship side (possibly us back then...before Reid). Caveat...I know nothing but that's just how it made me feel. Still I prefer to watch this than Forest Leicester. Maybe that's just me or the PL have problems...
