    I still think his stop stopping in the Championship last time was influenced by his positioning and the playing out from the back. He was always in the wrong position as he was looking to get the ball to his feet and piss around with it to his defenders and then back again. Even when the other team was say breaking forward he would maybe be initially out of position as he had just passed it or was looking to go to a good place to receive a pass.

    I am not saying he is the next Anti Neimi, but I also don't think he is the next Tommy Forecast either.

    I think Robinson and Fraser may be the wingers to start.

    I agree completely not bazunus fault, it’s one of many SR cock ups. I’m worried they haven’t learnt. For me he’s closer to forecast than neimi.

    All I am saying is give Baz a chance. Imagine that.

    Personally, more than willing to give him a chance. I just have little to no faith he'll prove me wrong based on what I've seen <laugh>

    I’m not his greatest fan but he has looked sharp in the preseason games.
    He wasn’t at fault for the goals against Brighton, as I think someone has said, so let’s just see what happens.

    He's blatantly gonna either have an absolutely worldy or disaster on Saturday after this.

    Let's hope it's the former.

    He did look ok in pre-season matches, unfortunately if you look at the previous 2 seasons he looked awful, as the stats. clearly show.

    Absolutely agree, but it is what it is and he hasn’t been found wanting in the friendlies so I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

    It's just something in the way Baz moves
