What a difference a week makes. Jack mint, Ndyie mint, Pickford mint.
Nice seeing some decent subs come on. Add dibling to that next weekend and hopefully some more to come.
Defence a bit ropey but 2 out of 4 injured and no RB, I'd like to think things will only get better.
UTFT.
{Ed025's Note - good hard working performance Chris and will get better when the new players gel, the defence looked a bit shakey at times but i imagine when Jarrad and Miko are back it will solidify things, we still need a centre forward though mate as our two lamppost twins just dont cut it for me..
24 Aug 2025 16:19:14
But I'd still be really happy to see a top class striker.

I’m going to say this because when you’re wrong, you’re wrong:
Yes Pickford was my man of the match, for me just pipping Grealish and Ndiaye, but I have to give a solid 8/ 10 to Keane. I’m the first one to slate him on here, but he has been decent from the tail end of last season right up to today.

Yeah branthwaitte and myko should sure things up as well as our new world class RB (hopefully) .
Personally I thought Barry was quite good. He didn't get a chance on goal but allowed a bit of an out ball and brought other players in, needs to jump better for the corners. He's only young and I'd like to see him given a chance.
{Ed025's Note - i think Barry and Beto are the same person with interchangeable heads Chris, but as you say Barry is only young and can improve mate..

The lamppost twins ??? great shout ed 025 mate fought Barry didn't get involved as much as he wanted to an beto his speed is unreal but he does need to control his touching an 1st touch do you think we will go for another forward ed 025.
{Ed025's Note - i would hope so Andy..

When JB is back are we going to drop Keane? He did well last week and this. We look to have a decent bench at last.

Myself and fellow blues have given Keano a hard time in past but he’s shown his loyalty by signing extension and his performance today was quality.
Thank u Michael!

Yeah DMS if anything he looked more solid than Tarks. He mad some shockers today.

BBN me and my lad both thought the same thing during the game but didn't say anything in case Keane done a Keane. However, he was exceptional today and the best in that back 4. Garner though is such a good left wing back I'm finding it tough to say I'd want want Myko over him. Going forward he gives so much more that helps Jack and KDH.

That was strange for a CF/ Striker bought a lad that can't won't jump.
24 Aug 2025 20:58:48
I hope Tarks hasn’t gone off the boil again like parts of last season. That back pass was awful.
Well done on the clean sheet without players in their natural roles. Still hope a RB and RW walk through the door this week and we get a full back who can play both sides on loan before the window shuts.

I still think it's a bit early to to make a decision on Barry Ed. Also, and I know you won't agree, I think beto could do a job off the bench.
Either way, I'm so happy in comparison to last week. Hopefully get some more recruits in and get as far up the table as possible.
{Ed025's Note - Barry could be one for the future Chris but its the here and now im interested in mate, with him and Dibling we seem to have paid a hell of a lot of money for potential and when you have an established side then thats fine, a bit near sighted of me maybe but im 67 now .. :)
