    Jones has improved immensely since Hughes came into the side.

    Hughes
    Drama
    Puerta

    Coyle gets a mention in dispatches for his last minute blocks, though he did have a bit of a harem scarem sort of match.

    Five points for first choice, three for second, one for third.

    Drameh 190
    Hughes 131
    Puerta 83
    Simons 10
    Slater 8
    Belloumi 1

    First MOTM performance from Cody. If he plays like that out of position I wonder how good he'll be if he ever gets a chance to play his natural position?

    I do think overall he’s our best full back. He never gets skinned 1v1, him and Coyle are quite the partnership.. might get a chance at right back in summer when the elite clubs come sniffing for Coyle…£100m minimum though

    I don't think he'll necessarily be even better at right back. I really do think too much is made of natural positions sometimes. In this system particularly, the full backs turn up all over the place anyway.

    Depends really he has to drive inside a lot when going forward, i imagine he’d much rather be able to run on the outside and cross instead of having to cut back and cross with his stronger foot

    We don't really do that though do we? Coyle on the right comes inside probably more than he runs outside. That's what I mean about this style. I guess it's partly why Giles doesn't fit in as well - overlapping and crossing on the outside isn't as important as being strong and mobile and good 1v1.

    Can anyone hear the sound of Ernie’s calculator in meltdown?
    Get it in an excel spreadsheet, it’ll do all the hard work for you.

    Drameh best performance from him.

    Using an abacus ? That would be coming from the wrong angle would it not ?

    Is that cos Acun didn't trigger any sine of Tan's alleged miscalculations before his departure ?
