    I don't think it is really fair to make a final decision on Archer. He has scored 2 goals in 9 starts in what is potentially the worst Premier league team of all time. Whilst also scoring 3 in 3 in the league cup.

    He has shown he has a good finish on him but hasn't really had the chance to do much else.

    Do we think Bree is playing as a third CB (though not sure why he would be in place of Wood) and KWP right and Manning left? Or is it a back 4 with Manning or KWP playing further forward? Trying to work out how this will be a functioning team.

    Roma were heavily linked with him in the summer, and Juric was manager of Roma at the time, so maybe he does rate him

    I might be some sort of unfashionable luddite, but isn't football supposed to be played with strikers? You know the people who's job it is to score goals?

    Especially when you're a team who are really really struggling to score?

    Thank **** I've not paid for a ticket for this ****e

    Sulemana is probably one of those players that looks absolutely blistering in training then has a nap at game time.
