  1. Definitely. Thought he struggled a bit just because he was adjusting playing next to Jonjo. We noticed him more in a creative sense with Hayden as he had to be. He was more anonymous to the attacking eye with Shelvey taking that role. Think there is a cracking potential partnership there once they play more together.
  2. Looked best as a wide forward although he was far from perfect there. Hit a progressive brick wall about a year and a half ago now. Shame as he really burst on the scene looking a prospect. He still potentially is but I don't know how we use him best.
  3. No Colback. Scrumptious. Didn't even notice at first glance. I love Rafa more and more every day.
  4. Polarizing figure. Did lots of good along with lots of bad for the club and will certainly be associated with some of our best times. R.I.P.
  5. Part of the problem is the fact there is nothing creative immediately behind him too.
  6. An easy in for mitro at the moment. That is saying something. We can't really afford to bench mitro to eat humble pie.
  7. Commentator is right. We are willing to sit and wait for our chances. Problem is we have forgotten we also have to create them.
  8. Boo shelvey for no reason. Don't boo the ex palace player. Brighton fans.
  9. Biggest ever attendance when we play them. Strange that. What's with the shelvey hate btw.
  10. Our passing and decision making is soo shocking at times. Is it that players are coached to just clear at all costs. I don't get it when players just aimlessly punt it or head it when it just goes back to the opposition. Fair enough when there is no time to bring it down or if under pressure but we do it on impulse even when no-one is around. It's not just us tbf but baffles and annoys me.
  11. The transfer was formalised after they met our clause of games that had to be played to make the loan into a permenant deal.
  12. Benefits greatly playing next to Clark who has a calming influence akin to Woodgate (Clark doesn't play like Woodgate). Crazy when Lejeune is possibly much better than both but rightly can't get into the team while they play so well as a unit. Times like this i switch to 5 at the back on fifa just to accommodate all 3 because I like them so much. Thankfully Rafa has more sense. Don't see Jamaal in for qualifiers. Far too much risk for an unknown quantity. If we had a friendly imminently then I'd say he was a shoe in on this form.
  13. Next chance of winning a game is against us.
  14. Highlights how huge bringing a first class striker was this past window. I'm sure the goals will come. Plenty said the same about mitro though. If he wasn't a moron id still pick him ahead or joselu but the latter definitely helps our overall play.
  15. Almost posted the same thing. Think he is much more suited to the premiership than championship.
  16. Got a great attitude and head on his shoulders. Hugely likeable. Hope these goals and performances really feed into his confidence to improve his consistency. Got plenty to work on before any talks of a regular national call up are warranted.
  17. Looked a bit toothless and first touch was abysmal to start but definitely grew into the game. While we didn't quite look threatening on the break we crafted a few chances. Second half was a different proposition. Looked like we were going for the kill as the game was definitely there for the taking. Really impressed overall. We are lacking, no doubt in quality in attack but on the defensive side we looked decent and the attack worked hard. Ritchie and joselu were relentless. Clark and lascelles were impressive Merino is a fucking stud. Get well soon rafa. Glad the half time Skype session worked but while i know you are working from home please wear trousers next time. Or don't if it has similar results every week.
  18. Players got a charnley pole dance if they progressed through EFL cup. Explains a lot but a few of the lads were proper gutted.
  19. Would have loved Mitro, Pards.
  20. New manager will probably bring him back.
