From what I have seen of him, along with Burrell, are 2 amazing signings. At this present moment, play him as RB , as I have banged on for ages that Dunne is a terrible RB. I'm actually really excited, JS needs time to understand his squad. I'm really confident we will finish in the top 10
Saw the first half and thought the game was there for the taking. With the right substitutions. But the latter clearly did not happen. So we didn't.
Too many changes for every game for my liking to get a top ten finish. I predict another season of 16th/17th without the consistency of selection.
Great preparation. He wasn't even aware of the 8 seconds rule (which he thinks is 6 seconds) hilarious
The twists of Hamer and swapping Dunne/Mbengue worked and JS deserves some credit as bringing in Hamer was ballsy. Mbengue did get forward well and put in a couple of decent crosses but also hashed probably his best/easiest opportunity, got a yellow for killing someone on the halfway line and was ghosted past far too easily second half and probably should have come off. The subs weren’t good though at all. Frey, bless him, is pointless. You might as well chuck Dunne up front and bring a defender on if you want a target man. The bloke looks totally cooked. Vale was never really in the game and at a time we needed some legs was probably the worst of the three options. How he didn’t give one of the others 15 minutes for Chair is beyond me. Quite like Morgan as the reserve right-back. We need a way to get him involved more which should be as the Madsen replacement really but it’ll do.
The refs have obviously had had an email to clamp down on it for a week before forgetting again after it happening in successive games after being entirely ignored for three months.
Exactly my thoughts. How can so-called professional footballers not be aware of the rules of the game they play? Why didn't the so-called professional coaches inform the players? We seem to be run by amateurs in so many ways.
Unless the bloke doesn’t watch football or keep up with the news at all he must have known surely. I don’t blame the coach as it’s so well-known. Like saying he didn’t realise you can’t pick up the ball if it’s straight to him from a throw. When the back pass rule came in did any keepers just instinctively pick the ball up early on? Those who remember rationing may be able to answer.
