Match Day Thread Bristol City v Hull City

If we have to move players out to bring in others then Slater should be the first out of the door. For all that running, he offers nothing.

 

This Amir Hadziahmetovic fella's meant to be one of those isn't he?

 

Woh, woh, woh! It's only three weeks since Drameh and Giles were finally the answer to our fullback problem.

 

I think this is all a plan so other teams think Pandur and Hughes are **** so they don't come in and buy them by the end of the window - I think it's working

 

Slater is ****e and will be ****e so long as I’ve got a hole in my arse but Syd does have a point because Lundstram, despite his obvious qualities, looked like a 38-year-old plumber playing Sunday League today. Lundstram isn’t disciplined enough off the ball. He likes to press and get forward which means he’s usually chasing back when we lose possession instead of being the shield in front of the back four. He’s not quick or mobile enough to run back and provide cover when we’re hit on the counter so we’re constantly defending 4v4 or 3v3.

We need a defensive midfielder who just stays back instead of wandering off whenever he fancies it. Hopefully, that’s Hadžiahmetović. You just can’t play two number 8s and a number 10 because you will get ripped to pieces like we did today and against Blackburn. It gives players like Cantwell, Twine, Mehmeti etc. **** loads of space to receive the ball and turn and once they’re dribbling at the defence, you’re bollocksed.

 

I'll put that one down to the manager and coaching staff. Strange the amount of space between the lines. The new CM should help things but feel we need to bring in two really.

Pleased for Joseph and great to see that Belloumi will have no problem quality wise after his injury.

 

Well Bet365 knew he'd score

 

We had more shots on target. Their goalie made a couple of excellent saves.

 

Not bothered about the result, didn’t expect to come away with anything. Didn’t see the 2nd half really only a couple of minutes at the start.

But the manner some of those goals went in, the sheer amount of space we were allowing them and the seeming absolute lack of defensive organisation is very worrying.

The last thing we need is another quick fire sacking but it’s already not looking good. I seriously hope things improve, this guy really seemed like the real deal.

 

And there's no way Williams will sign as he's not getting in this team any time soon.

 

And who do you reckon would take him, that he would happily go to? He’d have to drop down a level at least and probably a sizeable pay cut.

 

I’ll keep my eye out when I go in a few weeks.

Do I get commission?

 

Have to larf. The Herbert on Blunderside asked Swann if this guy will make a big difference..
'No,' he replied.
Perhaps, Swann knows more than the brain's team...Sometimes we never give him the credit he deserves.

 

Frying pan fire

 

There’s no point in spending loads on wages up front if you are crap in midfield or at the back.

 

People let personal dislike get in the way .
He knows more than the supposed experts on here .

 

Scouting in Japan's not as easy as you think.

You'll only succeed if you really have a yen for it.

 

The space between the lines has been the problem in every game. Down to the coach I'm afraid.

 

On to the next one. The leaders in this team need to earn their money.

 

Are you being sake?
