this is where managers earn their wages.

[Mad Ferret]

It’s clear he’s got the selection wrong already.

[Sir Alf]

We look vulnerable to the fast counter as we have been for as long as I can remember. Its why Moyes played the low block

[goose]

I’d change it now before we go 2 down.

[Sir Alf]

The lack of pace in midfield exposed

[Leonard Hatred]

Soucek and Alvarez...
The slowest and weakest positional midfielders in the PL

 

That's the spirit KD, positive as ever.

[Sir Alf]

Always a problem. We get caught on the counyer ad they play thru our press 

Thought we might struggle at home

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

Kilman is the worst signing in PL history. A truly abysmal sack of shit.

 

[goose]

So weak through the spine of the team AGAIN.

[Keep dreaming]

[Any Old Iron]

Terrible start. Our ‘defence’ was wide open. Far too easy for Brentford. Sort it out Potter

[RootsRadical]

Fuck me losing already.

[Mad Ferret]

Potter you utter cսnt.

[goose]

What a fucking car crash that was.

[nychammer]

jeezzzzz what a howl up

[Manuel]

He's only just got fit & had 15 mins game time before he joined. Expect him to come on at some point, hopefully with enough time to show what he can do and cement a starting place.
How do you fit him, Bowen, Kudus & Paqueta into the same team though?
It's a squad game and Potter does rotate tactics & players to suit the oppo so no doubt Fergie will have a big part to play in the remaining fixtures, Potter wouldn't have wanted him otherwise.

 

Paqueta is starting as a forward and you're asking where he (Ferguson) will fit in.

[Texas Iron]

Wake up you lot…

We are 16th…,!!!

[goose]

Potter is such a fucking cսnt honestly.

He better hope we win, or there’ll be big pressure on him.

You & him would have a lot in common then.

[Manuel]

Ferguson will be having limited minutes to ease him back into match fitness after a long while out and thus avoid injury. I can see why he hasn’t started.  Todibo is not 100% match having only returned to full teaining this week so another where the minutes will be limited to prevent another injury. Most managers would do this. Suspect we will see Ferguson after 60 mins especially if things have gone “tits up”. 




 

 

 

Disagree. He's either fit or he's not, Potter said he's ready to play and it's just a case of deciding if to start him or not, so for me it's a football decision. Limited minutes? He's only got 14 games to play. He's not even our player, so bollocks to all this modern day let's wrap him up in cotton wool.

If Ferguson isn’t ready to start then we should’ve brought in a player that was

[Manuel]

Manuel - agreed, cannot understand the logic in not starting him when he’s only here for a maximum of 14 games 

 

Potter's a fucking fairy, you just know that the wife wears the trousers at home.
