Re: Weak links - Lowton & Boyd
Have to say our defence has been outstanding. Both full backs have played their part. If anyone doubts this just look at our goals for and against in the lower half of the league. WE are set up to play as a defensive unit. With both wide men primarily defending its minimising the chances we create. ...

Re: Weak links - Lowton & Boyd
I think SD has built a Jeckyl & Hide team that's capable of holding its own one week, can beat anyone at home most weeks, and then on other weeks totally outplayed as we were yesterday. In stepping up a gear from last year Arfield, Boyd and Vokes have struggled to put in consistently good performanc...

Re: Robinson over Pope?
Robinson has not played for several years and it showed.Watching him was like watching highlights of keepers in the lower divisions.
Has the defence(Mee in particular) to thank for it not being 6 or 7. Its made me appreciate Heaton more. THink we might even have won with him

Re: Andre Gray
One thing that was obvious today-we play better as the "underdog" and today we looked stone wall bankers to win before the game kicked off In the PL home or away no one really expects us to win, particularly away, and that seems to lift our team. To some degree SD seems to fall into this camp with m...

Re: Andre Gray
Agreed with Beddie-shows the importance of Lowton & Ward . Darikwa can do some things really well but does not have the composure of these two full backs. Needs to go out on loan in the Championship
Flanagan is a liability and would put Ben to LB if Ward ever got injured

You can rotate Barnes, Gray and Vokes as much as you like. All 3 are great servants and squad members but all 3 lack the cutting edge of the PL
We will inevitably sell MK in the Summer and that's where we need to use the money, maybe trying to get Ings or Rodriguez and another quality striker

He bought us a few dud players, but he also got us some tremendous ones-Trippier, Mee, Ings, Austin, Shackell all for next to nothing, and we made good money on all of them.
If you had a team that was set up defensively by SD and in attack/midfield by Eddie you would have the near perfect 11
