Three games to go. That's 9 points for the taking. We're off to Leicester next. Could it be happy-hour at the King Power? Leicester are without a win in their last 5 Premier League games. Eeeek. Anyway, for those of you, (like me) still looking for little morsels of positivity to feed on, no team has conceded more goals from corners this season than Leicester. Hanley for first scorer this week? Let's hope there's more content to follow.
I remember the Surrealist poets. They used to cut up words, throw them into the air, see where they landed, and that would be the poem.
That’s a “planning for next season” line up if ever there was one. Bit of experience for Springett is good. I can only assume we are contractually obliged to play Gilmour a number of times otherwise we have to pay extra.
Nothing against Springett, but why not Rowe? Developing players does not just mean putting them on the pitch. It means - well - developing them. You know, the way Farke used to do? Not just going to the ouija board and asking it, 'which young player will I develop tonight?'.
One game and Sorensen gets dropped to the bench. Does this team smack of trialing players? Anyway, defeat is only to be expected.
I’m hoping that is just because it was his first 90mins for a while and he may not be fully fit. Very harsh to drop him just because of a handball which wasn’t really his fault as he was challenging for the ball. I think he’s right to drop Krul who has been poor in recent weeks and it sends a message to other players that he isn’t afraid to drop anyone if they aren’t performing
My God! We look competitive. Perhaps we've even been the better team. Gunn has been reliable, and I think Giannoulis has been excellent, along with Rupp. Shame about Pukki hitting the post. Let's hope we can keep it up in the second half.
