Snodgrass made himself unavailable for Chelsea away. The club physio's could find nothing wrong with him. He was great when he wanted to play but he's had more clubs then Arnold Palmer for a reason.
Almost like we’re not signing free agents from League 2 anymore and bringing in international footballers who require work permits etc.
I think the suprise premier league 10 was delle ali not happening now since hes going to turkey hopefully can get pelkas and dervisoglu in
Dont think he needed to chase much, she probably came running to him happy to get away from orange for a change
All fingers crossed for this. Our general record against struggling, bottom of the table teams is... Well, we all know how it is. Without bolstering the squad with some more quality before Saturday, what with the injuries at the moment, I could see us slipping up here. Might just be the pessimist in me, but the injuries situation at the moment leaves us with a squad barely any stronger than last season's in many respects. You could argue Tetteh and Oscar are a cut above, but would they even see anything of the ball?
Yeh, we are terrible against struggling teams. It's always so frustrating, we have usually tended to outwork more skilled teams and gain points, then it seems we travel to the bottom clubs and the aim is to all of a sudden play football and we end up getting out worked and beaten. Hopefully in the near future we have the quality to beat these teams regardless.
Yeh thats true in the case of Coventry, I was just speaking in general terms about how we do against struggling teams.
That's a fair point, but regardless, they're currently bottom and now it's our turn to face them. You'd like to think at home with a good turnout after losing 5-2 and hopefully with a point to prove we should have enough to take 3 points, even with the injuries... But...
It's not just us I don't think. Everyone can beat anyone in this division and there are no gimmies. Fans get expectant but probably shouldn't cos there's always chance of an upset - especially when clubs get over confident and expect to win. We did the same ourselves to a few good sides last season.
I’m worried about the next few games. I think Coventry and QPR are both tough, especially with all the injuries and then Sheff U are arguably the best team in the league. A few bad results and our good start is wiped out. I’m still very optimistic for the season though, just need some better luck with injuries
Even if pelkas is signed dont think he will be fit for cov game he hasnt played in a while hopefully we can get 3 points but seems extremely difficult
