Yeah he’s frustrating because he shows you glimpses of quality and then within seconds he’ll stupidly put us under pressure which has on numerous times this season cost us a goal.. he really shouldn’t be the central defender, needs to be pushed out to RCB when TK returns.

Naismith needs hooking out this team Jesus Christ…. Where the ****s Kalas too? Injured or not put him in, can’t be any worse ?

Yeah I think if the season continues as it has so far where we are playing good football, sometimes it doesn’t go out way but you can see the lads have tried, we’ll definitely be top half. I’ll take anything from 10th-14th right now. Like others have said it’ll be next season where I think expectation levels will rise for a top 6 finish

Can see Leicester trying to take someone like Hasenhuttl/Frank who are now established prem managers with the intention of starting a new long term project with them. Pearson would be a big step back, even if he is doing a good job here with us.

Then you’re mad. If he picks the right club like a arsenal, Tottenham or even Man City, granted there’s a risk involved but the reward is worth it. He’s not a 16 year old with no game time moving to a top 6 team. He’d be 20 with around 100 games under his belt. They’d be shelling out I’d imagine in the region of 20-30m for him so that’s not a signing they’d make for the reserves. He’d be involved and be in and around the best players/managers in the world. I’m by no means saying it’s the best move he could make but it would be the opposite to “not doing him any favours”. Yes he’d probably get more game time at the likes of Brentford/Palace but I genuinely think who ever signs him next season is doing so with the intention to be playing regularly. If I was him I’d rather be learning under a Conte or pep and playing/training with the likes of Kane, KDB and Son than playing a few games more at a lesser team. If he backs himself like I’m pretty sure he does, he wouldn’t take a move where he wouldn’t play.

Well it does for this season. I love the lad but if he’s still with us in the championship next season then somethings wrong. Needs to be in the prem next year with or without us. Could go to a top 6 (think he’d love that spurs move) and get occasional game time but he’d easily be able to handle his own at the rest of the clubs. Another season with the likes of James, Williams and King will do him wonders and hopefully add a few more million ?

Honestly when we signed him I thought he’d be like a wagstaff/waghorn sort of player. Not really that effective and just a bit part player but he’s certainly holding his own at this level. Look a much better side with him in there, fitted for Wilson though as genuinely think if he gets a good run he’d be even better than Sykes which is saying something. Finally got some depth at the club!

Was scary how good he was, you’d think he was 29 in his prime.

Yeah only just seen it was Wells. Thought it was Naismiths goal.

won us the game today

We usually have pretty good starts to the season so can't say im feeling to excited just yet, however things are looking pretty bloody good. Conway is magic, what a boy.

Yeah we need to not even accept 15 million at this point. The World Cup coming up could see us get double. Imagine he gets 2 goals.. very good opposition, we’re looking at 20m-25m minimum. Got an absolute gem here, let us completely have somebody’s pants down if they want him. 30 million or get lost. However all that comes down to his World Cup and league goals up to that point. Just going to enjoy him while I can as he won’t be modelling next seasons kit in July ?

Always good to see our academy players achieving this sort of landmark. Congrats Zak! Still think he’d be useful as a DM in time, especially when Kalas returns.

Yeah Semenyo has to start now for me. If only for 60 minutes. Without doubt our best attacker overall. Must be an absolute nightmare to play against because he literally has it all. The only thing we were missing from him 12/18 months ago was finishing… that’s not a problem anymore. Weimann always has to play as well so unfortunately one of Conway and wells has to be dropped. Over to you Nige!

Also 3 weeks until Christmas.

Our best defender overall by miles. Can get caught out but imo we’d of lost more games than we have without him. Can see his mistakes have cost us a few goals but he’s done more than his share of preventing them too. The problem for me is I don’t think he should be in the centre. I’d play Atkinson there until Kalas is back and have Naismith on the left side, not so much of a risk then if he does lose it out wide compared to centrally.

Lads calm down ffs, really isn’t that deep. You’re either both over 50 and are taking what I’m saying literally or you’re offended because you collect stickers ? all words on a screen, I hope you both get shiny messi’s ?

Alarm bells are ringing if a 42 year old bloke is buying football stickers is all I’m saying.

Any grown adult who spends over £800 on stickers needs to give their head a wobble. Noncey behaviour.

Get yourself a magic fire stick and watch every game you want.

I mean come next summer we could be seeing some serious money coming our way. If Conway hits double figures and Semenyo and Scott continue to improve the way they have we could be easily fetching 20m+ for each player. With the amount that are OOC next summer we’re going to need a massive war chest to rebuild. Think it’ll be safe to say only about 3/4 players who are starting now will likely be starting next august ?

Semenyo to start. Give him 60 minutes, natural progression. He’s an absolute beast and even the Blackpool commentators were creaming in their pants about him yesterday and absolutely puzzled he wasn’t starting. I’ll be glad when Thursday is over, although I don’t think he’s going now. We have no time to replace him.

Don’t want to see Scott at RWB as it takes away from his game. The sooner we integrate Wilson at RB the better imo. He can make the step up and he’s looking good, it’s about time Nige started putting players in correct positions. Scott and Massengo looked great as a duo against Luton and imo it was a better footballing performance than Cardiff, harsh on Williams but think these 2 just offer more overall. Absolutely love Semenyo so imo when he’s fit he needs to play, he also performs better away from home which is worth noting. Wells has been great and doesn’t deserve to be dropped but I think we’re all desperate to see that front 3 of AS, TC and AW. So much pace and power with real threats in front of goal. Nice headache for Pearson to have. Bentley Wilson Vyner Naismith Atkinson Dasilva Scott HNM Weimann Semenyo Conway O’Leary, Klose, Tanner, James, Williams, Wells, Martin

Next summer will be VERY interesting regarding outgoings….

Is he out of contract at the end of the season? ?
