Gallowgate Toon Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Saying 'we've lost a lot of ground' at this very early stage is canny bold. Ignore Ronaldo though, he's prophecised doom after every transfer window. Edited October 28, 2023 by Gallowgate Toon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liv and Hall wouldn't have been out of position but hey, Eddie knows his shit so that's fine. No one is particularly sure of Halls position. Seems to be very versatile.

Vinny Green Balls Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 6 minutes ago, Ronaldo said: I really didn’t go on about it religiously and I defy you to prove me wrong. I mentioned it was odd that we did that without a replacement. Bottom line, we’ve lost a lot of ground on our competitors and as much as I’d like to be positive I think not signing JM, in particular, and wasting so much of the budget is a sliding doors moment and will be scrutinised by the owner when he asks why we’ve gone backwards at the end of the season. Go back and look for yourself. That is probably the majority of what you talked about for over a month. And I think the going backwards theme came up quite a bit then as well. You really do appear to have selective amnesia, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen that on Sky, and his comments just before were saying we didn't have many attacking options on the bench. So I'm guessing if he was to introduce Liv and/or Hall, then they wouldn't be replacing like for like players (Tripps and Burn), and would be played further forward which may not be their natural positions. But, I'm guessing. Kind of agree with comments made earlier, if we want to play Tripps in the CL games, then we need to rest him in the next PL match and start giving Livramento a go. Similarly with Burn, if he is Howes first choice LB, then following league game, play Targett or start trying Hall.

Andy84 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Think our transfer business is a little opportunistic. We’ve seen an opportunity with Hall, very promising full back available due to a bit of a malaise at Chelsea. Same with Livra, who I think could be our right back for years to come.

They've been very tough to beat for other good teams this season already. Combine that with injuries and suspensions and its a decent away result.

We would have had 3 points no problem if it weren't for the sudden injury crisis. Just give the majority a rest on Wednesday please, otherwise our league performance risks falling apart. I'd be going all out in the cup and picking the strongest team available. If we continue to pick up injuries we are going to finish somewhere between 6-8th in the league. You get no medals for that.

Paullow Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 I didn't actually see the West Ham game, but this feels less like 2 points dropped to me, possibly because the goal was later at W Ham. Quite content with this result. I'd consider W Ham away the harder match on paper as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember one or two even criticizing you for beating the point into the ground , but you and I both share that tendency of belaboring a point. I can at least admit it though. Look, man. I have absolutely nothing against you, but You really do appear to be a doom merchant.
