Hate the way VAR offside is called. It's against the spirit of the original rule and ridiculously fussy. The offside rule is meant to prevent an unfair advantage. Today, Wright was an inch further forward than a defender who was 20 yards away. In no way was that inch conferring any advantage...

This is easy to say after that goal, but regardless I consider Walsh to be the best midfielder in the club by far. If only he could stay injury free. I think he's worth a pay-to-play or 6-12 month incentivised contract for next season to see if he can put the injury stuff behind him. I've read...

It's a shame Page wasted his last sub with the Broadhead - Brooks switch. If he'd waited until a minute before the end he could have put another penalty taker on in place of a defender. The Mepham red was the perfect opportunity, less than a minute remaining. Or even just kept Brooks on, I'd...

This is 100% the reason I dislike possession-focussed systems, and this game plan is near enough what I would use instead. Put the ball in the opponents third, if you don't have it, press and win it, then shoot. Then do it again until the scoreboard looks right. Then keep doing it until the...

The commentators job is to make it sound good even when it's not. It's an entertainment product after all, so they have to pick up the slack when the match itself fails to deliver

Ollie Cooper isn't it? The best Allen replacement in the squad. The team's most energetic midfielder, tons of quality, and as good and willing a tackler as Fulton or Allen. Not as experienced as either but there's always swings and roundabouts.

:ROFLMAO:

Blackburn will be emotionally and physically exhausted after their midweek extra time and pens cup defeat, and they played a strong team for that game. Swansea should win comfortably.

This is the team that has been brewing for over a month, but suppressed by having to play opponents which are stronger. Now the opposition is more even, the dam is bursting

This is why I would sell him and use the money to buy a fast CB. A lot of people really rate his passing, and he's a solid passer, but he's Lake Placid when this team needs Niagra Falls

Get Cooper in there I reckon

I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling positive 😂 I had my reservations about Williams largely because of his poor defensive record. I accept that his teams still won't set any clean sheet records but all the stuff @CroJack pointed out more than makes up for it. The tough opposition is now off...
