  1. Gumboots - spot on. Another angle: could this be a friendly reminder to Venkys not to faff around all summer? As for wage rises: of course it affects transfer funds. Knowing about it doesn't make the money magically appear. Imagine also that certain players (Dack, Smallwood, Raya) may be offered new contracts on better terms to prevent last minute bids from rivals.
  2. Think it shows that the players weren't following their instruktions/plan and knew it themseleves. Suggests tactical clarity and mutual respect between players and manager. José Mourinho aside, how many managers make subs at half time unless 4-0 down?? As for tubthumping - isn't that the point if behind at halftime (passion i seem to remember being high up on the/your list of requirements for a Rovers manager...)
  3. Selling Steele was evil genious level - pretty much swapping Steele for Dack (financially) must be the best bit of transfer business EVER ??
  4. Frustration is one thing but Samuel shouldn't be anywhere near this list. Edit: saw your next comment so fair play. Actually thought Samuel did ok holding it up in the last 15 minutes.
  5. Thought that Samuel and Antonsson worked well earlier in the season. Think he does a lot right when i have seen him as sub but obviously a tough job to come on for DG when the team is already nervous. Decent enough return first half of season and good enough with the other bits whenever i have seen him for L1 and possibly mid championship but needs players pushing forward in support.
  6. Strange that the system isn't being used to punish divers and so forth - only to check decisions that affect betting - sorry i mean of course ensuring that results are correct in accordance with the spirit of fair play 
  7. Shouldn't Croatia and Iceland have been kept apart?? Bizarre situation that they could lose out in the group stage to a team that they outqualified... England - if Hart is first choice then something is very wrong.
  8. Great result but a bit of a downer to concede late.
  9. Under the cosh Good save and then a Superman flap by Raya
  10. Injured - got twotted in a challenge around 40 mins.
  11. So far so good - looks good enough and strong enough. Composure is harder to judge
  12. Shut up shut up... No talk about league positions as My nerves can't take it
  13. Sorry - answered as it was (forgot they switched) Dack!!
  14. Who got the flick on at the first post?
  15. Think it was Downing that lost his man (for the goal)
  16. Never listen to the commentary so can't answer you. Wish i could turn off commentary on all games i watch on tv
  17. Will wait till i see it again but not a keepers ball on first viewing
