Mee wasn’t all that clever at the start of last season. Kept his place. Ben Gibson was brought here as a first teamer, I’m absolutely convinced of that. No way on this planet have BFC paid double figure millions for a squad player/bench warmer. Not a chance in hell. ssssshhhhh dont say that on here...

Just to be absolutely clear, not a single one if the 5 goals we conceded on Saturday came from Spurs slicing through our midfield. Not one. The theme, if there is one, is teams going round or over our midfield, primarily by exploiting the fact our wide midfielders (particularly McNeil) are less sec...

Isn't the issue that, by going towards a forward who is running at you at pace, you commit yourself and therefore make yourself more vulnerable to being skinned/having a ball played beyond you? had no problem with the principle of Bardsley back-peddling against Palace/Zaha and City/Jesus, nor Tarks...

And one like you saying we cant win league every year

I'm not sure if this is due to our financial limits, but he does seem to prefer people who will put a shift in, over someone who may not work to 100% every game, but simply has far more technical ability than we currently have. IMO this is something we are severely lacking. More technical players. ...

First rule of defending is to close the space down.

How many more goals do we have to give away before they start closing the attackers down

To answer the OP, we have a lot of scouts at all levels working for Martin Hodge who is head of recruitment. Rightly though we do not sign players without them being the manager’s choice.

And there lies our biggest problem

And from a very good source he didnt want Vyrda either

Can I suggest an emergency letter from SD to refocus our scouting attention to central midfield Championship players who have natural pace and athleticism as two basic requirements.

Why championship ?

Plenty of other leagues around the world

Dyche should have pulled the plug on this

Tonight's tactics they are all out on the **** around temple bar - you couldn't make that up after the last 7 days

I would lock them all up in a room tomorrow and put this goal on a tv on repeat for 2 hours

Embarrassing

BOYSIE31

This team / squad needs a major overhaul this summer - lets hope we are still in this league to be able to do just that

BOYSIE31

Couple of myths being exposed: 1. Burnley are a physical side - Barnes and Wood aside, genuine athleticism is one of the weakest aspects of our team. We need some pace and power, quite badly. 2. Burnley are a solid defensive side - Only the bottom 3 have conceded more than us this season. Oh and He...

And Nick Pope was MoM at Watford where we won 0-3. I can't fault Nick for City's first, second or third - and place the ball beyond the keeper as City's 4th and that will also always be a goal. Just because you were mom for a game 2 weeks prior does not mean you cant be critical for another game

BOYSIE31

He seems to have a weakness with low shots right next to him. In choosing to get his hands down there instead of his feet. It's understandable being 6 foot 6 and a long way to get down. He used his feet for those sort of shots against City so he's obviously realised this and worked on it in trainin...

If I was chief exec of Arsenal, West Ham or Everton Dyche would be top of my list....fortunately I’m not. Can’t see him getting anywhere near the Arsenal job but this is the only one of those he should take if offered...however, Everton is a bit of a worry tbh... Please explain why and none will to...

Very worrying

Pope has made quite a few mistakes this season already and was at fault for both against Palace

Hard to judge against City but looked way of the pace for me

I'd rather push the boat out for someone like Bowen and get genuine quality than keep taking punts on players like Vydra and Wells who are never going to feature. 15 million in transfer fees alone on those two, as well as a combined wage of 50-60 grand a week. Spend it on one player who actually im...

Have you seen Charlie Taylor try to use his wrong foot ? Most of our team is one footed.

But why ???

I play semi pro now and can use both feet equally well

Does it matter these days which wing they play on and anyway should be able to use both feet

BOYSIE31

This is why the ideal replacement for Vydra is not a striker at all, but a wide player to effectively replace Lennon in the squad - i.e. a natural right winger who offers an alternative option to our 3 left footed wingers - who can also operate through the middle. Equivalent would be someone like C...

Well it has worked out, as evidenced by the fact that the club is meeting its target of staying in the PL. They were signed as back up and fortunately haven't been required as Barnes and Wood haven't suffered any major injuries. Do you not think they were signed to offer us something a bit differen...

Not saying he should but that table is wrong as they are not even allowed to use most of that cash anyway.

Why would such a player come here when they could go to another PL club and get more gametime and more money? And let's just say they did come here, how long before you're complaining that we've wasted the money on their fee (which would no doubt be substantial and probably a record for us) and the...

Wealth but what about premier money each season - he does not spend out of his back pocket

Boysie, our strikers are averaging almost goal a game between them (12 goals out of 13). Players to score more than 6 this season? Vardy, Abraham, Aguero, Mane, Aubameyang, Rashford, Sterling, Kane. No club apart from Liverpool (one on 6 and one on 8) and Man City (one on 9 and one on 7) have two p...

If we have enough points on the board by middle of Jan no need for a fourth striker and sort this out in the summer with someone who will be our number one striker - not 3rd or 4th choice lets aim higher

:D Winning 3-0 spoilt your planned posts about lack of spending so now you have dug this one out. By the same logic Mau Utd & Arsenal are struggling due to being in the Europa League, seems you can't do both No was only thinking while looking at league table this morning but dont let that stop you....

BOYSIE31

Gone quiet on here about Wolves run after struggling early season and now up to 5th.

Maybe you can do both.
