@Kid in the Riot CC: he’s done it again….. me me me me me me

Exactly the same as last season. I’d go as far to say, they were the team I was most impressed by at AG last year. Their attacking structure was on another level, but defensively really basic. Hence they were 3rd with minus GD at the time iirc!

Like the tactical change in bringing Mount on in a more advanced role against France, gets him on the end of a chance in the box that then earns us the penalty & golden chance to equalise?

So realistically, quarters we could face Germany, Spain or Italy, and if we don’t face one in the quarters then we naturally will in the semis. I really think if we can avoid Spain/someone else knocks them out, we win the whole thing.

That is probably the best group we could’ve hoped for

Having Ndiaye, Doyle & Berge certainly helped too.

I think they’d be mid table in this years championship, genuinely. They were so average last year, such was the weakness of the league. Can see them sticking with Heckingbottom because they know there’s no saving themselves, whoever is in charge.

And yet, he had hardly any injuries before coming here. How many players could we say that?

Kal out for a while. Sounds like a torn hamstring. All Rennie’s fault!

Totally missed that, that is odd. Christmas maybe? God knows.

I believe (someone may correct me) but the football club gets first option and decision on everything, not the Bears. So it would’ve been a City decision to have Bears tomorrow and us Sunday. Club may have seen an away day to Southampton on a Wednesday, freezing cold night against a side we’d be doing along of running against, as an opportune time to get an extra day of rest before the next game?

This is the only time it’s happened this year, isn’t it? Outside of games over festive period etc Sky is 99% of times the only reason it changes, which effects every club. Part of me actually dreads the impact of the PL if we ever got there. Think it’s something like around half the games for every club are ever actually played at Saturday 3pm because of the tv deals/rights.

No was definitely not a penalty. Armstrong very lucky to not be sent off for a second yellow for his dive at the end of the first half though. If it was further up the pitch, he probably would’ve had to have gone.

Every away day in football atm seems to just be 14-17 year old ‘hard men’ jumping up and down acting hard 4 yards away from opposition fans, who could actually ‘get to them’ if they really were fighters who wanted a scrap, recording the whole thing on their phones to put on their Instagram / Snapchat stories. All before going home to their parents house and playing FIFA all night. It’s cringe as ****.

Bloke is an absolute egomaniac. Walked around clapping the fans BY HIMSELF not with the players at FT, ensured he was the last person left on the pitch (along with the photographer) whilst doing so too. Absolute bell.

Have to find a way to go 2 up top. Knight has been closest to the striker at all times in each of Manning’s games so far. I’d love to see Conway & Cornick up top together. I think Liam will have seen enough to realise we need to be 2 up top moving forward.

Sykes pulled up a few mins before coming off. Looked like cramp but he could hardly move whatever it was. Tinnion will appoint himself head of medical before long.

Massively missed opportunity for points that. We looked totally out of ideas after they scored, which doesn’t make any sense after playing so well first half. We looked happy to just lose it 1-0. Given we were playing a side who would shag the ball if they could, the amount of times we needlessly turned the ball over was absolutely staggering. Second half was truly, truly horrific and was a borderline copy and paste of QPR.

Mehmeti

That ******* sums it up

Whats that gotta do about Max’s shit kicking?

Max has absolutely killed us today. His kicking has been ******* horrific.

This second half has been absolutely shite fair play

Loook like we had a 15 min nap at ht
