Why are we so bloody cautious, Wolves play a debutant and as l suspected he scored against us,we have Eze sitting on the bench, our most expensive close season signing,and don't bring him on till the damage is done!He is young keen and raring to go,wake up please Roy,and use the enthusiasm of youth like every team that plays us seems to!!!

Feel a bit with the 4 4 2 formation we are getting out gunned in midfield at times this season. Frustrating to see central defenders pass the ball to say Milivojevic and we then have 3 goal side players so if it is passed forward we have 7 players versus 10 from the opposition. This is where Sako can be good but in general we have no pace at heart of the defence so ball gets turned over we could be gifting the opposition easy chances. Tricky trying to get the balance right.

Originally posted by EddieMac Why are people starting new threads every day with the same s***e????? I think there is an issue with this site in that they don't monitor threads very well. There are some threads that were started during the Boer war and they're still active with hundreds of pages. I'm exaggerating of course but it does seem that threads stay active longer than warranted and by that I mean any sense of immediacy is long gone but they're still active. I think the reason people start new threads is because they don't want to have to plow through things from 1958 to get to the last page that has actual valid information. Not sure if there are actually any Mods working this site but in any event I think it would be helped by someone taking the time to cut off threads that have obviously out lived their usefulness. Then if we start new threads, at least they're current. Edited by redshift (02 Nov 2020 5.42am) Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth.

Then if we start new threads, at least they're current. Edited by redshift (02 Nov 2020 5.42am) Is it really so difficult to click on the 'Last Page'or last page number in any thread? We Mods have quite enough to do as it is, and as for 'deleting' old stuff, sometimes people actually do want to refer back to it. Again, that is down to the webmaster who has much better things to do in 'real' life earning his living, whilst providing this site for free. Since this is about the third time you have publicly critised this site and it's moderation, maybe try the BBS? It could well be your sort of place if you prefer a totalitarian state!

Agree with this. Difficult committing players forward and playing further up the pitch. One of the reasons Wan Bissaka's pace is missed so much.
