God, that was grim. If I remember correctly, it was around the time he signed a load of strikers on loan - Will Keane and that other guy who I can't remember the name of. God knows how we went up that season. |

Wow, great news. It really looked bad for him on Tuesday. |

I think it's because we can see it's a comparatively weak league this season and a half-decent side could make the play-offs. Judging by recent performances, I don't think that's us. |

What if the player wants to leave though? I can't imagine Sam is a Winston Bogarde, happy to sit on the bench every week. Even when Varane is injured, he can see that Hayden is ahead of him in the reckoning and that the manager doesn't really rate him. |

I like Sam and he's done well for us but I don't think he's good enough technically for how we're looking to play. I don't think Varane has kicked on this season but he's far better on the ball than Sam, even if his passes tend to be backwards. Of course, as mentioned elsewhere, for a side that aspires to play a possession-based style, we're not doing very well at the moment!
I do think we'll sell him, partly because I doubt he's the type who would be happy sitting on the bench most weeks. |

We were barely in the play-off positions. Sorry, I should have been clearer - I meant post-Leicester when we were crap over Christmas. Even Sheffield Wednesday when we picked up the injuries was pretty crap. |

Difficult for him to pass to most of them as they can barely control the ball. |

I think Field will be gone this window. |

It's a fair point. Beale?  Probably wan't here long enough.
I suppose I just find us a very predictable side. I don't understand why he hasn't played an extra man in the midfield with the injury crisis. Kone was lost last night but he is playing far too deep - he looks far better on his own in the box. Can we not at least try that?
I also think draws are over-rated. Okay, good not to lose and keep a clean sheet but three draws gets you the same points as a win and two defeats. Draws take you nowhere fast. A draw away to Coventry this season is an excellent result. Two goalless draws against that team we played last night are really not good enough, however many injuries we've got. |

I think the reason a lot of people are unhappy is that we can see this is a better squad than last season and a far weaker league. How on earth are we still only three points off the play-offs? We haven't played well since the Leicester game. Personally, not convinced by Stephan. Maybe because I like a proactive manager who can change things up if they're not working. Every game is deja vu as the French would say.  |

They are a really poor side and the crowd is on their backs. Get at them second half and win this bloody game. Get Kolli on too. |
