    Only Rhodes missing from today’s squad if you count Leitner, available but unlikely to play. What a game great to see it again.

    Looks like my eyesight needs checking if only you can get an appointment! Thanks DD. Leitner’s goal was special : pity he can’t prove his worth at CR.

    He hasn't even been given a squad number, he and Drmic may play a part in the U23s.

    Remember that one well, especially the rising roar from the crowd as we moved the ball down the pitch for the winning goal and then the explosion when it went in.

    The last Championship season seemed to be one where we were not concerned about how many the opposition scored so long as we scored more. The video clip from Bure budgie is an example. Our defence was very leaky, but with Pukki et al we seemed unstoppable. This season we have scored 12 and conceded 8 which is the most of the top six teams, but only Reading have scored more. Are we in for a similar season as 2018/19?

    Good question. And (apologies to the statophobes) you're not wrong:

    Farke has stated that he is in the market for another CB in January. Perhaps another as good as Gibson will give us a settled CB pair and a better defence?

    Good chart. We are, with Blackburn, huge outliers in attack.

    I haven’t done the stats, but my sniff test would be that actually our defence is better than last Championship season.

    For those interested just seen on this day in 1993 we knocked the mighty Bayern Munich out of the UEFA Cup with a 1-1 draw at Carrow Road, winning the tie 3-2 over 2 legs after we had beaten them 2-1 at their home ground.

    Here's the equivalent Scattergraph at the end of the 2018--19 season:

    Defensively, for most of the season, we were closer to or above the median line. Look at Ipswich <yikes>
