Does he have a future here? Matos doesn't seem to fancy him, also noticed no Stewart in the squad yesterday |  |

To restrict yourself to only one particular way of playing and do your best to dispense of capable individuals who offer you something else would seem to be a foolish approach, and it's one that has cost us in at least three home games now. |
Over the course of the season I suspect you’d probably be right and I’d like to have someone with Waltas qualities on the bench. I suspect Matos would as well and that Walta would like a bit more. I wouldn’t blame him at all.
Saying it’s cost us in three home games may technically be true, but it’s a bit of a moot point given we’ve never started a season better.
I don’t see Matos giving up physicality and endeavour in midfield for a flair player, particularly when we play with two wingers and two attacking fullbacks. |  | | |

I can see Eustáquio being first pick in midfield from now on if he stays fit.
That leaves one spot for Fulton which albeit is ok it doesn’t get us going all the time, but he has played well. Stamenić could have done better yesterday.
Then we have Franco, Just and Widell really.
We haven’t seen Tom Iorpenda yet. The real issue for me is Vipotnik who isn’t putting the effort in for me, and the ever injured Stewart.
A clear week to make it better. |
He’ll mainly go with Eustaquio and Stamenic with one place up for grabs I reckon. There will be rotation of course, but those two will start the bulk of games when available.
Widdell looked very good out wide the other day. | | | |

The revelation by Vetch on another thread about Woodward and Haywood being on the bench yesterday because we were short of home grown players, has made me think about the complexities of managing a squad. Was a reason Walta loaned out because we couldn't have so many non home grown players in midfield. |  | | |

It does give us food for thought would Heywood or Woodward have been given a game yesterday?
Don't think we can complain about the subs used but could question the long balls out wide late on if we can compete for highball in the middle coming in from the flanks why not quick straight ball down the middle given we had two centre forwards with possible players runners off them. | | | |

That defence splitting pass down the middle was sadly lacking yesterday. Without doubt, credit goes to WHU for shoring up any gaps but I can’t help thinking we made it easier for them by our slow laborious build-up play. |  |

My dad had my ticket yesterday and that was basically the first thing he said about the game. Far, far too slow moving the ball.
I think we've got the pressing part right, but we can get stuck sometimes moving it through midfield. Opening up a defensive line that's had time and space to get set is much harder than with one still scrambling back.
Eustaquio if fit is an automatic choice for me in that six role. Don't think we've got anyone better for it. Franco is a little terrier, but again he's not going to carve out openings or set the pace. I've voiced my concerns about how long Stamenic takes to do stuff in the past and pairing him with Fulton runs the risk of reliving the Grimes/Fulton axis. Individually? Not a problem. Together? One for away games only maybe. [Post edited 18 Oct 16:31]

| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Just seen a quote from Matos on it. Ross Stewart left out because Scottish players don’t count. Idah did because he joined Norwich as a teenager. | | | |
