Swift didn't look on the ball in the Spurs friendly either. For a player that loves playing. There's a spark missing.

Hope more teams do it, it`s a bloody choice not mandatory. keep politics out of football. It isn't political, it is a social issue that everyone who isn't racist should be in support of. Do you not think black lives matter? People stand on their doorstops to thank the NHS staff. Then a matter of we...

Yeah, that wouldn't surprise me either to be honest, but I can take one big money signing if it is outweighed by Laurent, Riquelme, Gibson & Ng. Even allowing for the big fees on Joao and Puscas, our transfer dealings for the past few windows have been a vast improvement. Started with the windo...

So . . . we won . . ..which was good. But apparently (I didn't watch the game), didn't play well and maybe only got the win because of the red cards . . . . . which isn't that good as there's going to be a lot of games where we aren't playing 11 - 9. But then the new manager has only been here a mo...

Big step up from league 2 to Championship.

Still only 24. In a better team will excel. He is improving all the time. Interesting team selection for Paunovic next Saturday. Does Yak start? If he does then who drops out? Yes. Should be Swift. Quiet against Derby. Bad against Barnsley. Not effective as a No 10, can't play wide right or wide le...

Agreed. It looked like Bowen back as DofF supporting a new coaching focused manager was a sensible and supportable move. Trust Bowen to mess that up...... The Chief Exec change is harder to call. The new guy is not some random foreigner parachuted in, the timing might not have been great but time w...

Meite is never going to be a really great player but his zest and eye for goal is very welcome.

Ejaria.

I think there's a pretty strong correlation between you not watching and feeling confident. :lol: Maybe... You would have felt differently if you had watched it. The first 60 minutes was dreadful. Not a single attempt on goal. It was all just so laboured. A re-run of what we have seen in the worst ...

Derby lost to Luton today. Gives last week a degree of perspective.

I know a lot of people on here hate Aluko and would prefer to see him do badly than prove them wrong ... but I think he did really well when he came on. I'm hoping he proves all the haters wrong ... The opposition was down to 9 by then. Aluko isn't going to improve on the player we've seen previous...

Rinomhota and Laurent rarely pressed forward. Not their natural game.

Missed Meite in the first 60 minutes.

Ejaria needs to up his contribution over 90 minutes. Though perhaps not yet match fit.

Looking forward to our managers assessment of the game in the post match interview. How honest will he be?

He wants the manager to fail

No one wants the manager to fail. However I'm expecting him to hit the ground running and build on the platform from last season. Not send us backwards. Crowds are never going to return if the football isn't entertaining to watch.

All of you idiots who have moaned for the entirety of the first half will now bask in the glory of our easy victory against 10 man Barnsley. The majority of you don't deserve to listen or watch the 2nd half. Chill. I'm sure that the tactics will be addressed at half time. The opposition manager had...

Old Man Andrews You can tell who the people are who are against Paunovic already, they are the ones who moan non-stop during the games for absolutely no reason.

Not against. Was expecting a significant upgrade on Bowen though .

I’d prefer we stopped fannying around with the ball in our own box. Back to possession football. :roll: Yeah keeping possession of the football, terrible isn't it? Such a bad tactic to keep hold of the ball so the opposition can't score. What a silly thing to do, sack the manager. As in the past. A...

Royal Ginger I’d prefer we stopped fannying around with the ball in our own box.

Back to possession football.
