Re: Another late 'paperwork' issue. Accounts/Transfers
I thought Egan-Riley was injured, he can play right back yes and is a possible option for the roberts role as well goijg into the midfield . Is he good enough? No idea. Is he fit? No idea

Re: Why the panic?
Maybe because he is being man marked when the opposition don't have possession in our half by a big strong midfielder and he struggles to find even the tiniest bit of space. Someone else also mentioned he doesn't have the 2 out balls of Muric and Maatsen that he had last season. He’s higher up the ...

Re: Why the panic?
Sorry but this is nothing like last season. We were playing well from day 1, picking up points virtually every week. We had one issue then, conceding late goals from set pieces. As of now, we can't defend after we attack. We’ve played the best team in the world, a team in some serious from since Em...

Re: Square pegs in round holes
The press from the centre backs and full backs high up the pitch isn’t working. They get rolled very often and then the pitch is wide open. The defensive side has been a shambles thus far. I’m sure VK sees it. I’m hope he isn’t too proud or stubborn the sort it

Re: Clarets v Spurs Match Thread
VK is going to have to sacrifice an attacking player to bring bronwhill in. Al-Dakhils pressing against benfica from right back was superb and I could see why we would use this but we don’t have the men in midfield to do it. The lack of solidity today and aggression really cost us
