It’s much worse than this though, the basics of being a CM arnt even being witnessed at the moment. Look at yesterday as an example Westwood completed 37 passes Brownhill 24 passes Cork 19 passes With a midfield completing that many passes a game we are always going to struggle to win a game. We ar...

The problems have been there for a number of seasons, age is magnifying them for Cork an...

Other than 2 routine catches what else did he do to deserve a higher mark. He was certainly below average and has been all season. Not sure he has fully recovered from the shoulder injury or is lacking confidence. Your first sentence pretty much describes an average rather than poor performance. He...

Think it would be easier to name the players we should keep.

Pope
Tarks
Collins
McNeil
Cornet
Wood

On second thoughts I can see your cunning plan - Dyche has lost the dressing room so let's just get rid of three quarters of it

It seems you're just trying to see what is the most nonsensical thing you can possibly post.

My worry if we strengthen in January is that we may well be the end of the window rather than the start. However good the signings are SD will not feel they are ready until late March/April

Like Cornet?

It's a nonsense debate really because it's largely based upon what others do because we can only do so much ourselves & so far results wise it's not a lot, we could lose to Brentford win our next 2 & still roughly be in the mix, you've got a thread stating Brentford is a must win & if we lose to Br...

We have some quality whether that's not enough to improve the form is highly debatable. I disagree with posters saying there's a lack of effort or commitment when I think they are trying but simply not up to the standard anymore by age regression. I think our form will improve, as we are starting f...

No,

I think he has got to grab the team and try get them back on side.

Similar to after the Everton result

If he has lost the dressing room, which I feel is complete nonsense, it won't be easy as just 'grabbing the team'

taio

The quality comes before the form, without the quality in this league it's unlikely you'll ever find any sort of consistent good results, we haven't phased the old guard out & replaced with younger on a incremental basis often enough. It wasnt really in any particular order. It's not to say that we...

4 wins in 29 games.

None in the last 12 kind of supports the theory

No it doesn't. It supports the view that we aren't good enough right now. If you are sure in your head Dyche has lost the dressing room do you want him gone?

taio

You may not agree but our record over this year is absolutely shocking. Under Dyche with worse starting elevens we have been able to grind out results, we are conceding goals for fun at the moment. I can understand poor results/form but it is the lack of effort that makes me think he has lost the d...

Defensively vulnerable not just in conceding the goal.

Good work by McNeil, good cross by Lowton and a good header by Cornet.

Like last time, Norwich just seem happy to get promoted without putting up much of a fight trying to stay in the Prem.

Harsh. They are trying but they don't have the quality. They tried enough to get a point from us at Turf Moor.

Both Chelsea's goals were very good especially Mount's finish. They have unsurprisingly dominated. I think the commentator said all Chelsea's outfield players have now scored this season which is impressive so early on.

Maybe, I'm not sure whether they'll have such clauses in their contracts to be honest, but maybe they do. Forget the website bit if you'd prefer, I think my comparison is still valid.

I've already told you I know Richardson is an adult and that I was responding to a post stating that we don't publicise the injury status of our young players. Maybe I am over-thinking it. To be honest I was looking for an open-minded discussion about whether the health status of footballers should...

taio

But other players in the U23's are under 18, therefore children. So you've agreed that my employer shouldn't make my private health matters public. Do football clubs operate under different data protection rules? Richardson is an adult. I haven't agreed - I only agreed if it was done without consen...

I know Richardson is an adult, I was replying to a post saying that we don’t publicise the injuries of our young players and giving a valid reason why this may be the case. What is so odd about my workplace analogy though? Should any employer be able to publicise the private health status of their ...

taio

I can understand the injury status of senior professional players going into the public domain - although even that is debatable, but I’m not sure this is appropriate for academy players, some of whom are children. If I was off work ill for whatever reason, I wouldn’t be too keen on my company putt...

That is just normal transfer business though, which we needed to do regardless of the buyout. It's factored into the normal operations of the club. The buyout debt is a separate issue It is normal business, yes. But the point is when a club has been taken over through a leveraged buy out it adds to...

taio

Sigh. Transfer fees are normally paid over the duration of the players first contract, so that's 5yrs to pay off Lyon. That's been normal in football for years. Very true. But this increases the club's financial risk rather than mitigating against it because of the leveraged buy out. It shouldn't b...

It’s just realism, most of this board live in absolute fantasy land. Them players combined wouldn’t even cover our debt.

I suspect Dyche would convince most of them to give him a season to win promotion back into the PL, but we'd probably have one or 2 who'd want to leave. We've had similar before, wasn't it Jay who had signed a deal on the proviso the club got promoted or they sold him? Off he went when the club fai...

We shall see in regards to financial growth. We don't know the repayment terms the debts, but that hasn't stopped people making very wild assumptions about how the club is going to sell everything apart from the fans to repay it :roll: The club needs to go back to buying and selling like we did ver...

It wasn't aimed at solely you. As for servicing the debts and paying off Garlick, do we need to go over old ground again? If you don't get it now then you never will and me explaining it again isn't going to help. It's all about growing the club's revenue streams, it always has been. The club under...

So you think a player who misses chance afer chance after chance, and rarely makes any effort at a challenge deserves to play? Fair enough. This board is all about opinions.

I think suggesting he shouldn't be in the squad is odd.

Coudn't agree more about Wood. He's started this season worse than last. Does not deserve a place in the squad, never mind the team.

Doesn't deserve a place in the squad? Bizarre stance to take.

That’s exactly what I’ve read about him - everyone seems to be saying the same.

Is he a right or left sided CB do you know?

When I've seen Stoke they've played three centre halves with him the middle of the three. If he was to play I a 442 I think he would be right sided CB.

Defibrillators should be available 24/7 in every community in the country. Out of hospital cardiac arrest without defibrillator and there's very little chance of survival.

We were. I’ve never watched him but know he’s about 6ft6” or something, so an absolute unit.

Definitely a unit but I've been impressed at how good he is with his feet for a big lad.
