The Who - Out In The Streets

One v Ipswich where the yellow caed he got stood.

Taveres on the bench but no Henriksson?

Same but at least it’s better than henriksson and Hickman like we saw that got trodded over against Derby.

Hmm. You are right, but both Flash Scores and Transfermrkt only show 4 yellows so the stats sites are missing one of his cards somewhere.

Nothing can beat a Dalglish post match interview.

Great stuff, thank you, I’ll give that a try. Really appreciate your help

not confident all all with that midfield pairing

No he’s just come back from suspension. On 5 yellows.

It picks itself really.

Or just pay for a now tv subscription If your willing to do so.

Now we're talking.

Anyone else watching Arsenal vs Bayern tonight instead or just me?

TGH on 4 yellow cards so I think another means a ban (he’s got 4 more games to navigate before a 5th yellow avoids a ban). Hopefully Baradji is more up to speed for if / when it happens.

You called it

Just the one change. Hickman in for the injured Sonny

Can anyone recommend a free stream please? In a hotel in Swindon and just found out you can’t access red button games on Sky Go app. Thanks in advance

Trade off is Forshaw has the right technical qualities and discipline, but can't see him being as effective in the tackle. Think id probably play Montgomery and TGH just to try and make us robust as we already have Mori in the midfield three who is quite weak physically.

I'm not even a particular fan of Forshaw, I thought he should have bene released during the summer. just he is the closest (of our available players) in style to Tronstad, which just shows how poor the summers recruitment was (talking numbers, not the individual players), with no adequate backup for multiple positions (centre back, right wing back, sitting midfielder, striker), whilst having a glut of box to box midfielders and "10s", and 2 left backs, neither of who play

that is a good shout to be fair - old head, able to read the game, not afraid to put a challenge in..

Agree that both TGH & Montgomery are more box to box. Don't think either of them has the positional discipline to play the Tronstad role Think they may try Forshaw as Tronstads stand in, and then prey his legs manage 4 games in 2 weeks (which seems fancifull at best)

Yes id say its both things. Tronstad is so good at the base of the midfield. No one else we have has shown they have the ability to anticipate the right place to be and strong enough in the tackle defensively, and technically good enough to retain the ball and pick the right passes. I think Tavares was signed to play this sort of role but he is so casual on the ball and unaware off it. Can totally see why Ismael doesn't trust him. We will need to play TGH or Montgomery there but they are more box to box and not really suited imo. Big loss.

I think that was Ismael's call so they'd back it anyway and it could also be argued in the long run it makes him look better, worth more and a more attractive proposition for any interested party. They forced out the previous captain without batting an eyelid.

Clearly not the executives at Blackburn Rovers who earn about a million quid a year between them for their 'expertise'.
