They did that for others. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 After tonight every player should feel part of the set up. That’ll be great for after the World Cup. That BBD goal just put another £5 million on his fee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossyian Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 6 minutes ago, rovers11 said: You don't think a team with Pears Rankin-Costello, Edun, Vale, Buckley et al is any weaker than a team with Trav, Hyam, Gally, Morton, Kaminski etc etc? That is surprising. No I said apart from defence there isn't much difference. Midfield to front is minimal apart from BBD. Look who played tonight Dack, Vale Buckley, Markanday swap with Szmodics, Hedges, Gallagher, Travis. I think we've got good depth now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_B Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Great win, 11 changes with 5 academy players in the starting line up and 3 on the bench. Pleased for Vale to notch, and Hirst to put his penalty away, but how must Szmodics have felt taking his? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller11 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Am I remembering right here… didn’t we lose to West Ham on penalties in 1998? Wilcox redeemed his 1993 miss absolutely smashing one into the top corner, but Hendry missed the decisive one. If so I’m even happier with beating them tonight! Edit: I am definitely remembering right. FA Cup replay. Finished 2-2 and Henry missed in sudden death. Hated Eyal Berkovic at the time as he’d had a run in with Kevin Gallacher and I think got him sent off.

JPTSwindon Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Great result! Cup runs are great for raising the profile and belief around the team. Also lots of minutes for the wider squad - all players who will be expecting more time in the starting XI as the season progresses. Good times! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoverCanada Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Ah, well that was a fun one 🙂 Generally quite a good effort/performance from everyone. Just before the equaliser, my friend (a neutral) commented, "huh, I wonder why they're not trying to get it to Brereton more...". Classic cut in and finish from him! That backline had me nervous throughout, but West Ham's goals were ultimately the result of a couple lucky breaks (Buckley deserves some stick for the one goal - I'd have to see the replay - but otherwise I thought he was pretty good tonight). Edun had a couple awkward moments defending the ball in the air, but was otherwise excellent. JRC definitely struggled a few times defensively, but also played a few great balls. Mola was good, but unsurprisingly tired. Carter... not sure he'll quite make it, but he did well in the end. Can't believe Markanday couldn't finish either of those chances, and he went absent a few times. Showed he can handle the ball well, but I worry about his overall speed. Kinda like how Dolan (who was good tonight) has poor straight-line speed but can make up for it with his short bursts. Dack struggled a bit when we were chasing West Ham, but also showed his class quite a few times in midfield. West Ham... seemed to know how to generate a lot of corners but not much else. Pears seems to be an okay shot stopper, but an adventure with crosses. Plus some excellent pens! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
