Re: Jrod

I love when fans suggest offering a player a coaching role. It happened with Barnes, Heaton the other day I think, and it's happened here. What makes Rodriguez a good coach? Is he interested in being a coach? Is he qualified?

Burnley chunk is from about ten minutes in. It's all a good watch though. Always rated Arfield and he seems a sound lad. https://youtu.be/El3NB...

Re: So do you drop Muric after two massive costly howlers?

Muric has made two of the biggest howlers in the league this season. Trafford is a better keeper but probably not good enough. Maybe ti...
