  1. People can look at stats but it is still no wins for Eustace. The only win being Johnson's since he started. Will picking up draws be enough?
  2. But is that not what we are now in all but name? Wharton and Philips transfers case in point.
  3. Also the same we the season we went down to League One when Coyle took over instead of Warnock.
  4. Wasn't the game against Mourinho the season we went down? All things are alining for a trip to Wigan next season!!!
  5. The simple fact this set of players are mentally too soft. How many times this season or last has it recovered from a losing position? This club has no fight so we will go down with a whimper there is no backbone. There is no one at this club you would want to be alongside you in a battle. Everything Ive seen from Eustace just reminds me of Bryan Kidd and we all know how that happened. Just like then we have a centre forward who should be bullying opposition defenders with his physique but they cant wait to face him. Just like then we have midfielders who have no fight.
  6. Nyambe and Lenihan weren't, they were already at the club before Mowbray
  7. Someone on Twitter reporting it as a permanent transfer following his old boss to stoke. Usually dont believe but the person did call the yank fiasco first.
  8. I dont get this. You dont wont to waste money but then suggest we bring in loans. I see the loans as the biggest waste of money of the lot. Borrowing a player for a couple of months, paying a loan fee then returning the player and your money is gone. This is not to mention there is probably an agents fee as well. Borrow 4 this window, borrow 4 next window at approx 1 million then thats nearly half the Wharton money gone and there is no resale value.
  9. And Steve Kean called David Goodwillie the Scottish.........means naff all
  10. Actually think all are equally relevent as each other. If you know your keeper is weak on crosses you need to stop the crosses. This should be done by being organised and do some basic defending. Coaching takes time but a defensive general who controls the shape of the defence will help but that will only work if our full backs are not being utilised as midfielders
  11. A Kevin Moran type centre half who organises his back four, a pair of full backs who can prevent crosses coming in and a goalkeeping coach who can teach him how to deal with crosses would be a start
  12. I agree that fundamentally that Szmodics is a forward and we are playing as a 424. This is why we are so wide open defensively. Then if our forwards aren't good enough, which none of the presently fit ones are, then we need another midfielder in the team rather than any one of them to help protect defensively.
  13. Will be known to the new Pilgrims manager, ex-England youth team
  14. The smoke was coming from further back and would be hidden by trees. I personally think if this is where the firework came from I think it was likely a mis firing firework probably aimed above Ewood rather than the pitch as the Riverside would prevent a direct aim.
  15. or trying to get a highly sought after youngster that he has an instant first team route at the club so please...please sign a contract before he goes somewhere else
  16. or are we entering into another power struggle between Waggott and Broughton? We've been here before and it doesnt end well.
  17. Totally agree about it being a front 4 rather than a 4-3-3 and is the reason defensively we struggle because how many teams play a 4-2-4 or when the full backs are inverted 3-3-4?
  18. We wont change from a 3 man midfield as people forget that Szmodics is the attacking midfielder of the 3. It would mean going to a midfield 4
  19. He is suffering from not playing a consistent position one week to the next.
  20. or just not look at the transfers bit. It has always happened, Im so excited that Ray Wilkins is about to sign as he's bought a house in Wilpshire. He has been doing it up for 30 years now so must be about to move in it by now. He'll add valuable experience. 🙂
  21. At this moment, a 1-0 win would be a great result. Minimum is requirement is a win but a clean sheet would restore a little bit of confidence in the defence
  22. Regarding Leo, all I say is fair play to Watford. Once they brought the subs on, they targeted Leo. They suspected he couldn't handle being targeted and they were right. Once he was hit hard, which there forward picked a booking up, he became hesitant which IMO effected Leo. Earlier in the game he caught crosses but once he was hit he returned to how was earlier in the season and started flapping at crosses and pushed the ball back into play rather than concentrating on what he was doing he was fearful of being hit again. Hopefully he will toughen up or opposition managers will target him all the games. Yet again a hard man centre half like Kevin Moran would offer him protection but the whole team is a soft touch all over the pitch. Even though the ref made a truly terrible decision for the disallowed goal, he was playing the rule of probability that there were contact. If Leonard hadn't jumped the keeper would have made contact with him giving the ref an even harder decision as the probability rules would be that the keeper has blocked teh forward. Another reason Leonard shouldn't have jumped he should have been more agressive and let the keeper know he is there. There keeper looked shakey as well.
