Fuber Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 3 minutes ago, Super said: Thought we had a better squad this season? For playing the ball on the deck, maybe. In my book there's not such thing as strictly better, just getting players to fit a system. The issue is without Flint, it highlights the serious lack of height throughout the team.

He had the Games with the ROI at the end of last season in June/July, so I'd assume he'd be more match fit with the full pre season than a few others if anything. But, I'm just guestimating. He got injured at the start of pre season though . Yes he played a couple of games for ROI but I think that was before the World Cup started .

Have a look at player ratings from the Man City game and you won't find anything less than a 6, so for a debut game for a 20 year old that's not bad at all. Give it a rest you're boring me so god knows what it's like for everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this doesn't become a theme of our season. There's nothing more frustrating than constantly dominating a game and getting nothing out of it. Suggests the tactics may well be fundamentally on the right lines but just lacking cutting edge or real creativity, so annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Grande Homme Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 anything actually happening...other than the bitching and moaning. I'm stuck in a hotel in Luton where i can confirm the town centre Wetherspoons is the burning beacon of hope in this god foresaken hole. I'm not getting much of a sense of feeling for what's happening in the game reading the matchday thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
