The squad needs a bit of tweaking in two or three positions but I'm hopeful the bulk of the side we'll have next season are already here. This is where the manager and his staff earn their corn. They'll have a full pre season with the squad to get them up to the levels they were at in Oct 2022, righ...

I'm sure this isn't open to abuse.

Goody1975

I'm actually the opposite of the opening poster. I am firmly in the Kompany in camp but my support was beginning to wane after the Arsenal and Palace games. Even though the past two performances have only got us one point it has been far more positive. No matter what division we are in next season t...

Cheers, kick me whilst I'm down.

Thanks buddy.

Goody1975

So pleased Josh Cullen has played well since he came on at Palace. One of our best players at Spurs early Jan yet discarded until Brownhill got sent off at Palace. Needs to start every game with Berge until the end of the season Those two are key to our chances in the Championship next season. They...

Will Foster be fit v Chelsea as Fofana cannot start in that one

If it is a hernia op then six to eight weeks is a possible return time. His first game out was away at Liverpool on 10th February.

Goody1975

I thought he was right to add into midfield but I would have pulled the anonymous Odobert. Sadly Briwny has nit been great for the last month or so. At least he's stopping picking Amdouni and already we look to be in games longer. If Foster is out with a hernia op as has been suggested, then he'll ...

Goody1975

The negatives from the two awful performances against Palace and Arsenal have been somewhat counteracted by the past two against Bournemouth and West Ham. It's still only bagged us one more point though. We have the basis of a promotion winning team in the Championship but the full backs and a centr...

Goody1975

Why on Earth did he take a winger off and put Brownhill on? Larsen did fine and it took away any attacking intent to push West Ham back and keep them on the back foot , couple that with a **** weak challenge again that costs us a goal 39 seconds in tk the half. Dreadful second half. It certainly le...

Goody1975

Got away with offside goal when not getting tight to Antonio, so let's compound this by sitting off Ings. Playing three centre halves means you should be man marking your opposition players. Too often this season as per the recent home game (where the opposition scored from the edge of the box) we a...

Sky Sports bigging us up pre-game - interviewer saying to Moyes that our performances have been far better than the points we’ve yielded.

I’m not sure I believe that.

They are but not by much, if things had all gone our way we may be on twenty points now.

Goody1975

But he's using Odobert and Vitinho as our an out wingers. If he's asking Vitinho to do a role inverted and dropping in to central midfield we are in serious shít Odobert played as the number ten last week Vitinho and JBL will work back to give us a more solid bank of four, thus meaning Berge and Cu...

All those wingers signed and we persist with Vitinho on the wing

The formation we have with two central midfielders means we cannot play out and out wingers.

To play two wide men would mean that Brownhill has to play the attacking central midfield role.

Goody1975

Vitinho and JBL have big jobs today, they have to help the midfield two, we are going to be outnumbered in there again.

Goody1975

Just over fifteen minutes till the teams are announced and the possible meltdown on here.

I think Brownhill returns will Odobert reverting to the left wing.

Injured isn't he?

Goody1975

There are obvious holes at full back but the thought process has to be next season, with a big nod towards where we are if we win promotion. We dominated games and protected the defence by keeping the ball in our title winning side, something that is never going to happen in the Premier League. We c...

Goody1975

Yes, just about my thoughts. There's blind faith and knee jerk reactions, most of us are somewhere in the middle. My judgement will now be based on the summer window and the two or three glaringly obvious positions where recruitment is required with the right type of player. Hopefully we don't have ...

Saw it described earlier as El Crapico

Goody1975

If we are comparing last seasons midfield to what we are hoping for next season, then a replacement for Cork is the number one priority with Berge playing the role that Brownhill did.

A replacement for Cork was a major priority this season but that seemed to pass the recruitment team by.

Goody1975

Agree with that and feel Cullen for Brownhill has to now happen because he gives us more forward dynamism. He was badly exposed in those first 10 games but Berge was learning the system too. We’ve missed Cullen badly (though much of that his own responsibility for performances as above), and also B...

Goody1975

I did read it and respectfully disagree. The biggest difference in dictating our attacks from deep between this season and last is not the goalkeeper, in my opinion. It is the quality of the opposition, their organisation and ability to combat those passes from the goalkeeper. Muric may be better t...

Goody1975

We weren't impossible to press last season. Perhaps we were for a decent Championship side, but never for a Premier league team. We've learned that this season. The comparison between Muric and Trafford is redundant as a result. Trafford may not be quite as virtuoso with the ball at his feet but he...

Goody1975

Cullen and Berge would be comfortably best midfield 2 in champ next season They will be (if both are still here) but the balance I mentioned earlier is the key to everything. Last season, the ability for Muric to play as an additional outfield player in our build up play was massive, Jed Wallace sa...

Goody1975

What people forget about the beginning of the season when Cullen was starting was our completely naive tactics. You cannot have a midfield two of Cullen and Berge with four forward thinking players in front of them and expect to take on the likes of City, Villa, Spurs etc. Remember Brownhill was a b...

Forest should have been given the ball back, however in the long list of **** ups by the refereeing teams this season and there effects on the result of games, it's somewhere on page two in terms of direct consequence.

Goody1975

I will still go to the Turf tomorrow, hoping we win, hoping this is the start of an improvement in form, results and league position. If you don't have any hope when you go watching your team then what's the point in going? It's been **** for the vast majority of this season but in my life supportin...

Basically the same thing.

12 games to go, won 3 games all year.

It's not happening.

....and if that becomes four tomorrow then the fact Luton lost is a big positive.

Goody1975

I'm in all honesty not that arsed. Just commend them for the way they've gone about their season. It's nothing to do with their league position, nor ours. Anyone thinking that we're still in position to get out of this is beyond deluded. We are in a position to get out of it, whether the team is ca...

we lost 2-1 at an awful Bournemouth team earlier in the season. They are massively improved and we are the opposite.

Inspirational guy.

Goody1975

:lol: :lol: :lol: behave I'm not expecting us to get out of it but this is an opportunity to put ourselves back in the same area as Luton, Everton and Forest assuming they get points deductions. Bournemouth at home is as favourable a game as there is at the moment but so were Luton and Fulham.

What a terrible day if you’re a Rovers fan. :D Other than Birmingham losing all of the other results went against them today.

Zaroury next season will be based on whether or not Odobert and Koleosho are still with us.

Goody1975

If Villa win then it's setup for us again tomorrow, we should have no hope what-so-ever but the carrot keeps getting dangled, we just don't have the ability or determination to grab it.

That table looks a lot different with points deductions for Everton and Forest.
