    They really didn't impress me for the most part tonight, got some match winners n they are solid at the minute tho

    Just think they lack a bit in the final 3rd, which is strange given some of the players they have there

    Still feel others have better squads but their starting line up is very good for this level

    They'll def be up there for sure

    They’ve won the same amounts of points as we have after starting on -2

    I’d still be over the moon to finish above any of Sheff U, Burnley or Leeds.

    Ahhh, I was trying to work out how 5 wins and 3 draws equates to 16 points. Thought I was going mad

    I know they have but they still haven't impressed me massively

    As I said solid team and They'll 100% be there or thereabout. They have more depth than us but I honestly think we have about 5 or 6 players that would potential start for them (mepham, Hume, cirkin, jobe, roberts and mundle) - yes they have some quality players that play in the same position as those lads but we def have some real quality

    Our depth is just unknown at the minute

    Fair play to Aston Villa. That was brilliant

    Cracking saves at the end. Bet they are buzzing with that. Brilliant their fans.

    Only saw the first half but they were pretty unimpressive once again imo. Decent chance they’re less than they appear on paper and it’s gonna catch up with them at some point.

    Wilder’s a fraud imo. The good thing about this champ season is that the best squads are all gonna be blunted by very mediocre managers.

    Two goals for Osmajic - has he not been banned for biting the Blackburn player yet?

    Not sure on the wider public opinion but I am really enjoying the new European competition system. So many top quality games. Tomorrow is no different despite it being the lesser competitions.

    I still reckon they finish above we do but it’s a long old season. We’ll see.

    I love it personally and the games will only get better as the table takes shape

    34 European games tomorrow. That’s perfect for me <laugh> Just love any football.

    Minging if he's still playing while awaiting punishment. Typical of the EFL

    It goes one of two ways imo. Either their performances increase to match their reputation, or their results drop to match their performances.

    He should be looking at a 12+ game ban for that. Dirty bastard.
