Fair play for staying to the end.
Apart from half the Stoke squad. Anyone checked if their number 9 is ok? He seemed to have some sort of problem, his legs kept giving way whenever one of our players touched him.
And there was no queuing on the gangways. Walked straight out and got to pick up point before daughter.
what does howley do? whats his position? possibly the slowest player we've had since yakubu
Yeah I think so. He had a good game. Our issue is that without O’Hare or Palmer we win the ball and it’s Gyokeres and Godden running in behind and no options to feet. I think Sheaf and Hamer played as well as they could. This was a result waiting to happen with no real attacking midfield players.
What did you want him to do? He came on when we were 2-0 down. He’s 19.
Something would be nice, rather than slowly pondering around. What was Maddison doing at 19?
Who would you have brought on instead? Or would you have stuck with the same formation?
there is no one to bring on instead, maybe the the lad with the eyebrows, but howley is not the answer.
Playing in the SPL for Aberdeen on loan from Norwich I believe…your point?
70 appearances, 20 odd goals, not just a lad that is playing because we have 3 players injured in his position. He will/should not be anywhere near the first team next season, so him getting minutes today was more due to us having fuck all else rather than the benefit of his development with us.
Is it not good he got minutes? Some players don’t walk into the first team at 18. Wilson was a slow burner, look at him now.
anyway, can you answer my original question, what does Howley offer?
The best player in 30 years? All of of youth talent should be up to Championship level if they get there chance. Howley is nearly 20 and miles away.
Greggs - I understand your point but unfortunately our academy is suffering as a result of many years in leagues 1 and 2, when young players would sooner sign for Brum clubs or Leicester. There is a lag and I fully expect in 3/4 years to have some good talent coming through, but we can’t expect our youth players to come and step in a la Maddison.
Conceding four goals today?
What was Maddison achieving compared to Pele, Maradona and George Best at 19?
playing for england?
At what level for England? - your argument is pompous and crass and you know it is.
