Maxi and Miggy both have to cut back to cross on their strong foot. I remember Maxi crossing for Wilson from the right last season to set up goals. And I'm sure Miggy must be able to get one good cross in from the left!

Think it would for our centre forwards

To be fair under Howe we play with more possession and typically work harder then the opposition. However if you look closer at the players, we are not a squad full of natural goal scorers outside of Wilson and hopefully Isak. So we have to hope for pens, free kicks or balls bouncing in of players knees. Fingers crossed we get a bit of luck on injuries before the winter transfer window can kick us on.

The whole wing play frustrates me and I can't understand why we don't swap him, Fraser or even Maxi mid game when things are going wrong. Surely the likes of Wood and Isak would have more chances created if Miggy just had to concentrate on running and crossing with his left foot?

No wonder he was distracted in the cup final... Poor lad would have been up all night looking for his next worldie !

If we can include disallowed goals... Rob Lee against Brentford? from inside his own half.. Sure it was because someone was offside!

I mentioned that one to my two sons on Saturday after Isak's missed chance. Every new striker has a John Dahl moment when they break from half way. Andreas Anderson fluffed his. Bellamy missed a few but got better. Miggy missed a few and never made those runs again. I'm sure Isak will be fine but my heart did sink!

Looks like someone has set the FM search engine to find players beginning with P... Must have changed it from B since we signed Botman, Bruno, Burn

Yeah but you know the Wilson flag poles would snap half way through the display...

As the old saying goes... buy cheap, buy twice. I personally believe we could have went out and bought the likes of Dennis, Carlos, Sarr and other similar players this window but long term they would all need to be replaced again for where we want to be the following seasons. Yeah they would strengthen this years squad but if you can hold your nerve and snap up the next level player before the window slams shut you will actually end up saving money long term. I'm still pressing the refresh button in hope every 10 mins mind!

I don't think much of the new Botmobile!

It's that big lad from Gateshead Cannibaga TUDOR

So we bring on Wilson just after Milner comes on to fill the huge gaps in Midfield... 15 mins to late.
