I dont see how Foden is less versatile than the other 2. Hes played wide probably more than the other 2 and none of the 3 youd particularly fancy deeper but if you was going to choose any, it would be Foden. Regarding the starting 11 for the first game, how can we possibly say, its 9 months away? Hall has not even really established himself fully at Newcastle and he and Stones are constantly injured.

Not surprised one bit

Pleased you both enjoyed the game and thanks for reply

Gerrard has turned down Rangers by all accounts.

I went to Crewe v Bromley as my granddaughter is ticking off new grounds and it was a first for her. Bromley deserved their win and the really interesting aspect for me was that Crewe were one dimensional and tried to play out from the back but Bromley were far more pragmatic and did what they had to do without taking and unnecessary risks. I was impressed by Bromley's Arthurs and Krauhaus who was a dead ringer for Todd Cantwell in looks, gait and playing style. We met a Rovers legend on Bolton station and travelled down with him reminiscing about bygone days. He was also on the train back so we chatted again but more about the game today at Crewe.

what game did you go to? was it enjoyable game? any standout players who could make the step up to the championship or higher?

thanks for reply and the answer to the question

Great week of darts and semi final night tonight

I think having a player like Gordon out wide left is pretty crucial as Kane will drop deep and he will succeed only as much as other players get beyond him. Saka is brilliant but he is someone who is not going to get through the centre in the space Kane vacates. So the left needs a direct runner. That said surely Rashford will do that job better than Gordon if he continues in the same vein at Barca? Plus obviously much stronger goal scoring record.

I already knew what Watford had done under the Pozzo family thanks, but if they had shown more patience with someone like Rob Edwards might they would have achieve promotion. Give a head coach some time and patience espically when you are appointing non experience British football head coach, so I do question why appoint if 10 games later you are sacking him for a guy who was already available in the summer, so my question to the Watford people why didn't you appoint Javi Garcia in the summer and why appointed unknown in the summer? Crazy for sacking Nuno after an amazing job since his appointment and his sacking wasn't result based

But what you overlooked time after time is there can play 2 positions unlike Foden can. Is Foden going to be ahead of Bellingham and Palmer? if not I wouldn't take him. my starting 11 for the first game is Pickford Livramento Stones Guehi Hall Anderson Bellingham Rice Saka Gordon Kane what would yours been please?

which means less chance of signing him to a new contract & more chance of him being sold

If it’s only a piddling 40 minutes why not play it pre the Derby game?

Piss take.

It’s a ludicrously pathetic attempt isn’t it?

Clean sheet today, Toth’s value rising if he’s now an international first choice keeper.

George Pratt was steady enough for Chorley but beaten by a near post run for Oxfords third.

Would have him here (obviously he’ll never come back under this regime) but I’d have him here any day of the week over Ismael.

Yes agreed and why not. He broke Celtics hold in 2021, they’ll be hoping he can do it again.

They missed 12:25pm - round of applause as our former manager, assistant managers, captain, and six(?) other players take to the field for the opposition having been forced out of Rovers over the last few years due to mismanagement/contract negligence.

Yeah sorry - bit of a maths failure from me. 16 and 32 would be better. Or change the overall tournament to 40 teams in 8 groups of 5 teams with top 2 going through to round of 16.

They missed out, 2.40pm-stadium empties.

But again at the 48 team world cup, you have most 3rd place teams qualifying so there is absolutely no jeopardy in the group stages. You win one game and are basically through.

On a bigger scale, Chelsea under Abramovic were the same.

He was stubborn and clearly trying to prove a point in season 2, but the squad had been ripped apart and filled with crap, and has also become over reliant on sub par academy players or existing rubbish that had to play a more prevalent role. I suspect the Isak situation has really hindered them so far in qualifying. He did start yesterday but as shown at Liverpool is still unfit.
