  1. What we thinking tomorrow? Botman in for Schar, Gordon in for Barnes?
  2. DCL is a decent target man. Holds the ball up well and he's great in the air, but he's absolute bobbins in front of goal. Watched a game earlier this season where he fluffed a hattrick of one v ones. Could be a confidence issue of course.
  3. Hard to put an order on it, they're all pretty essential with European football guaranteed.
  4. PIF should be asking some very, VERY serious questions of Paul Mitchell.
  5. Ability wise, I have no issue with DCL, especially given Eddie gets an extra 20% out of everyone. But we've seen the issues of relying on a back-up with an unreliable fitness record, particularly with Isak not being the most robust himself. It feels like a risk rolling that dice again.
  6. I like the idea of having a target man option, where we can be a bit more direct, but I can't see us signing DCL. His injury record and availability v his wages wouldn't be worth the risk. Delap is more likely to join a club where he'd be first choice (Forest would be a good fit), but he'd still get plenty of game time here and the pathway to the England team is there for all to see. It'll probably end up being neither. I suppose it depends how much we intend to sink into the RCB and RW positions.
  7. Sounds like someone from Delap's camp has been busy briefing the media today.
  8. This chap doing the Lord's work.
  9. Pretty sure Heron's comment was tongue in cheek like.
  10. That's a fair point. With us seemingly looking at Europa League minimum, Delap should get plenty of minutes.
  11. Can't see Delap, but would be very happy with that
