  1. LOL you can tell commentators only look at the stats. "Armstrong has been in the type of form where if he gets one chance today he's likely to take it".
  2. Stonewall pen that, based off the one Toney got.
  3. I watched the Coventry iFollow feed against them earlier in the season. They had a novel approach of reading out fan tweets / messages during the game. Good lord does that fan base hate Mowbray. I can see why.
  4. Nothing wrong with the back 4 there, they kept their shape. The fact we've got 3 sitting CMs and their player was running free at the back 4 (with said 3 CMs all in picture jogging back) says everything about Mowbray as a tactical genius and man manager.
  5. Lot of low squad numbers and loanees for this to be their reserves.
  6. He was wrong footed by Lenihan's deflection. He was there to tap it in.
  7. In our 4-3-3 formation you have to play Dack in the Holtby / Buckley creative role in the middle 3. He's just too slow to play in the front 3 and playing him as a False 9 is self defeating.
  8. Dolan needs to release the ball earlier - he wants too many touches. Downing slows everything down - like he did last year. He retains possession, yes, but he allows the other team to get into their defensive shape.
  9. I can't understand the Dolan love - people definitely watch him through blue and white tinted glasses.
  10. Who are we crossing to? There's no-one in the box!
  11. Well obviously we'd be 3-0 down already if Whiteman was playing. How's his move to Real Madrid going btw? Just haggling on the goal bonus now, right?
  12. This midfield is so disjointed - everyone wants to sit.
  13. He wants to get Pears a game - nothing wrong with that. Personally I'd have rested Johnson too and given a few of the U23s a game, but I'm not a tactical genius like Mowbray so what do I know.
  14. We're running Gallagher out there every week...
  15. Big win that. Playoffs have gone, but we were in danger of getting dragged into a relegation struggle with our form.
  16. Mowbray has shoved him wide left. He proved he couldn't play there for two seasons.
  17. Birmingham look like they don't train together - and we're in a dogfight with them.
  18. Shoving Rothwell wide left again. Sticking with Gallagher. Mowbray back to his best.
  19. The game is bypassing the midfield. Both teams are just lumping it - we've had ample opportunity to play it inside to our CMs when in possession out wide, but we're trying World Cup balls instead.
  20. His selfishness is a problem because he probably converts 1 in 5 chances. However, 2 of those chances he'd be better laying off to a teammate for an easier shot on goal.
