When our corners are an advantage to the defending team - the coach needs to find the door and quickly.

SalisburyClaret

Ekdal is 5th in the pecking order so unlikely to play even if fit
Unfortunately

Ekdal is the best centre half at the club

Unfortunately Kompany doesn’t see him as 1st or 2nd choice

England’s 20 odd years of boring rugby management has to end

Morrisey- miserable?
Some of his lyrics are laugh out loud funny
Cohen has made some life affirming music, Reed too
Nick Cave - now he has made some music to worry your wrists

De Klerk on - the whole game will change

SalisburyClaret

Cork - it’s essential he plays
We need experience and leadership

You can add Everton and Forest to the four.

No it’s been a league of 4 from the start
Forest and Everton are on n a different level for now

SalisburyClaret

Zaroury certainly deserves his chance

Muric was ok for half a season but we need a shot stopper at the moment and he ain’t it

SalisburyClaret

Trafford 8* kept it in single figures with no defence
Roberts 4
Al-Dakhil 4
O'Shea 4
Taylor 5
Berge 3
Cullen 6
Trésor 4 clearly not ready
Amdouni 6
Odobert 4
Foster 7

Koleosho 5
Brownhill 5 obviously should have started

SalisburyClaret

We should play with a midfield - that would be a good start
Brownhill Cork and Cullen need to start
One No 10 is enough
The set play mastermind needs sacking

SalisburyClaret

4 wingers on the bench!

SalisburyClaret

With our reserve centre backs, we need to have 2 defensive midfielders in front of them - Cork and Cullen makes sense

SalisburyClaret

Very impressive

SalisburyClaret

Yes responded to say -
No drummer under any circumstances whatsoever
Move the away end
Move the pitch closer to the alongside
Win

SalisburyClaret

Trafford
Roberts O'Shea Delcroix Taylor
Cork Cullen
Larsen Brownhill Odobert
Foster

If AAD is fit then replace O’Shea

SalisburyClaret

Improving the atmosphere is straight forward - simply a matter of moving the pitch a little and re-housing the away support. Plus locking up anyone seen in the vicinity of Turf Moor on match day carrying a drum

I don’t particularly understand this comment.

£20m for a young player who’s now being linked with Barcelona doesn’t seem over the odds to me.

The article quotes 32m - I’ve heard that quoted elsewhere as 34m . Both in £’s and euros. So some confusion but a lot more than £20m

SalisburyClaret

The worry is that we offered so much for him in the first place.

I’ve never thought of alternatives and would definitely agree with HitchinClaret’s recommendation of M6/M40/A34.

Yep - that’s definitely the way to go - avoid Friday afternoons if poss

SalisburyClaret

3 v Bournemouth and possibly 1 v Palace

SalisburyClaret

O’Shea clearly isn’t up to the standard needed as yet. I thought McNally looked a far better prospect

SalisburyClaret

Would prefer Matt Lowton as a defender

SalisburyClaret

The dead ball coach is losing us games and needs to go

SalisburyClaret

Realistically we are in a league of 4 and need to finish top

SalisburyClaret

Nothing wrong with Roberts and Taylor - both good experienced defenders

SalisburyClaret

Trafford 6
Vitinho 3
Al Dakhil 4
Delcroix 4
Taylor 5
Cullen 6
Brownhill 5
Berge 3
Tresor 5
Odobert 7*
Foster 6

SalisburyClaret

He’s too focused on keeping all the young players happy.

We need experience alongside the youth

It seems as though prioritising “future resale value” has led to a squad imbalance with plenty of wingers and attacking players but no left back.

Exactly

SalisburyClaret

We have a lot of young players who could fit into an established side but as a group on their own they are always going to struggle.

SalisburyClaret

One of our most detestable players ever- his attempts to get rid of Mullen were unforgivable

A weasel is weasily identified but a stoat is stoatally different

A welcome three points but - Koleosho is totally wasted on the right Andouni is totally wasted on the left and needs to play centrally We abandoned our style and didn’t pass out from the back Our midfield, all played well but we were overrun in the 2nd half Kompany got selection and tactics wrong Lu...

2 classy goals
The rest was shocking

SalisburyClaret

Appreciate we all may have different streams but does anyone know who the co-commentator is for the game? Very negative and critical about both sides really, on what i think has been a very enjoyable first half. Some particularly rubbish shouts, including having me worrying about Foster being offsi...

Stats - we misplaced 61 passes in that half

SalisburyClaret

Worst performance of the season - get Kolly on the left and finish them off

SalisburyClaret

This added to VAR is or has ruined the game at top level. I notice after Liverpools disallowed goal there has been an apology and some sackings at Stockley Park. We didn't get an apology after the Nottingham fiasco did we? Keith Hackett is the latest ex ref to say that the VAR system has to be fixe...

SalisburyClaret

It’s only going g to get worse while we have such poor refereeing.

It’s quite simple - anyone rolling over more than twice is obviously play acting and should be booked. If it’s Gordon, it should be a straight red

SalisburyClaret

Positives - Koleosho and Foster

We’re 4th in a 5 team league at the bottom - it all depends on the second half of the season

Re the Al-Dakhil vs O’ Shea debate. League Goals conceded with O’Shea in the team = 11 without O’Shea = 4

Coincidence? Just asking for a friend.

No coincidence- Not sure O’Shea has shown anything so far to suggest he’s anything other than a useful stand-in

Again, the stats don't back up these statements. The opposite is true.

There are no stats on Muric in the PL

SalisburyClaret

There can’t be much doubt that Trafford is much better at keeping the ball out of the net. Muric is unquestionably world class with his feet.
Given the number of shots we’re facing Trafford is the better choice

SalisburyClaret

Trafford 7* kept it respectable
Roberts 7
AAD 6
Beyer 5
Taylor 5
Cullen 5
Brownhill 5
Berge 6
Koleosho 6 has to play on the left
Amdouni 5
Ramsey 4 awful

Larsen 6
