    I thought we had an 'easier' start, on paper, with Pellegrino. and the 0-2 home cup loss against Wolves reserves will live long in the memory :-(

    Last season Gunn not too bad. This season new GK coach Sparkes, Gunn making errors all over the place.

    Well let’s have a guess. Is it the team in 2nd, or the team 2nd from bottom?

    Sofiane hasn’t got to 6 in a row yet, let alone 6-10.

    Shame as he’s looked very bright this season.

    Yep exactly. The higher you are (premier league position (all EU leagues) wealth, even history; your feeding pool becomes larger & the ones feeding on you becomes smaller. Even the top “6” get attacked but it’s much less & easier to repel.

    He’s missing Rohl big time & if that’s true, we could be in trouble.

    He’s been a shining light so far. I said he should have been rested last week and was totally wrong. Gaffer rested him this week..and was totally wrong. I think we just shouldn’t rest Boufal. Sooner he and djenepo get back on the field together the better.

    Anyone know what’s up with that? Did he ever get a replacement assistant?

    I said first half that we needed someone to hold onto the ball, and hoped he would replace Long for the second half.
    Unfortunately Ralph didn’t agree.

    I can’t see any organisation in the team, especially in the middle.
    As I said yesterday, I think our defence would improve if the midfield was better organised and more disciplined, as they are caught the wrong side of the ball all too often, leaving the defence wide open and having to make desperate attempts to stop the attack.

    Have we reached the bleak @Schad matchday thread of impending doom stage yet?
