    He looks a bit heavier than a year or so ago, but he can finish with both feet very well when he gets half a yard.

    The McCarthy save down to his left was better than it first looked.

    If we don’t have one when the window SLAMS SHUT we can all get annoyed.

    The correct amount of 'E's but in the wrong place

    I was thinking this but then if it is a 4231 we want, we don't have room for both of them.

    I'd like to see:
    Baz
    Roerslev THB Stephens Manning
    Charles Fernandes
    RW CAM. Robinson
    Stewart*/Archer*

    Im split on this one, I feel like Stewart would help in terms of hold up / crosses, but Archer is the better finisher.

    No surprise that someone who is experienced at playing WB understands how to play there.

    But I'd still rather that we ditched it!

    Why not 3-5-2 and stick with both of them? Until we get good wingers anyway.

    It's almost like if we play a competent striker centrally he may score....

    Because it's been awful in every game we have used it.
    But also because Still has said he prefers 4231 so I assume he'll play that when the window closes.

    That man in orange is a bit of a spoil-sport, every time a saints player tries to score he stops the ball going into the net!

    Must be the first time he's played centrally in months and months.

    Finding it hard to care much about this one but a lot of what I saw in that first half was utter garbage from both sides. Sadly Edwards still isn't looking very good.

    Yeah a bit concerned by his start to the season. Should have been one of the players who could hit the ground running.

    I know I already called them a **** and I feel bad for it but the camera on the replays is triggering me beyond belief.

    Yeah the close up of the save was just a close up of the edge of the area.No ball or keeper in it. Or shooter

    Yeah and blurry and shaky as ****.

    Ironically actually reminds me of how vision can be on ecstasy.
