By the guys not good enough to get into the worst team in the league.

Some hybrid of 4-2-2-2 or 4-4-2. Will be interesting to watch this

That is a very, very changed “concentrating on the league” lineup from Sunderland. I only recognize a few names. They’re there for the beating! COYB!

Hull. Who thought that might have gone better? A draw is maybe the fair result, but we all come away from the match muttering about what might have been. Tim Searls and Greville Waterman are he to discuss Hull, and to look forward to tricky...

But that was different, because it was a kid from Ukraine on an unfancied team that the ref didn't know versus a guy who plays for Liverpool. So, not the same at all.

Generally speaking two things are true: 1. You're right, what we do has been wonderful and successful, and 2. Brentford generally and KA specifically doesn't need any advise from me! :) I'm going to stop whittering on about this now. To...

Yes, I don't doubt this. It wasn't great conditions, especially first half with the wind in our face. But this tactic has no safety net. You short a pass to KLP out wide there's some chance of cover recovery. Not with this pass. If you know...

If even Raya and Arsenal are getting "caught out on many occasions", what are we doing? It strikes me as the sort of Pep-inspired suicide that cost Southampton their place in the PL. Let's say it costs us 5 goals and 5 points in a 38 game...

I absolutely could see this happening

I bet it’s the most intercepted or deflected pass that GK’s make - and best case it leaves the receiver no option other than firing a first-timer back to the goalkeeper or to one of the wingbacks in either corner while running full speed at his...

It hopefully was a learning experience, not to be repeated.

Think these remain good coaching rules.

I had a former teammate write me after the goal: “Can you imagine our Coach’s reaction if we’d done that?!?”

Thought a lot about this. Without MD changing the pace and intensity of our play, we lose. Also considered Ajer, who was quietly in control.

Where have I seen Hull’s goal before?… View: https://youtube.com/shorts/DcwqEfEb--8?is=61DzvjUJJJvnxnra

:judge:

I had a coach with an absolute rule that his goalkeepers never play the ball on the ground out in front of them against any kind of press. Best case, the player (Hickey), facing his own goal, plays it back to a now under pressure goalkeeper or...

If Gelhardt doesn’t miss an absolute sitter, we lose. Second half wasn’t much better than first. Dams and Anthony subs saved us.

Anthony literally in a bear hug.

Dams has immediate impact

I expect abuse here, but I think he’s the only one up front putting in a shift. Everything even half decent has come down his side.

Hickey is now a second yellow waiting to happen.

But you quoted me, who didn’t say that.

It occurs to me a few minutes after the match what a passenger Henderson was today. He’s superb in a tactical game, but in a rock fight like this was he’s 36 years old. Did he touch the ball? Once?

For the third time this season I'd rather support us than the cheating barstewards that came to the Gtech last week. Yarmoliuk gets suckered into a red, but was it? Donovan Stabler joins us in the studio this week, all the way from Kansas...
