Palmer and Eccles future. Discuss

Eccles?

Vital to us. Shouldn't even be a discussion. Palmer is a different matter, because of his lack of consistency.

Think we need to drop some cash on a CM whether Sheaf goes or not.

need a consistent cm defo

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

We’ve been pretty rubbish.

 

[Tommo1993]

Always nice listening to the obnoxious prick experts in the away end. Fuck off home back to FIFA.

 

[robbiethemole]

Middlesbrough above now

Finally!

 

[Gint11]

Seems like our players are on the beach

 

[Briles]

can tell blackburn are fighting against relegation by how much quicker they are to the ball, but quality wise we should be winning

 

[stupot07]

Pretty poor half really. Dominate possession, yet have just 2 shots all half. One of which was a speculative long ranger from Eccles. Compare that to Blackburns 15.

Kelly is terrible, he needs to be moved on in the summer. We have nothing on the right hand side. One of Palmer or O'Hare to go off for Lusala, and push MVE up or put Lusala on the wing. We need width both sides.

Palmer is pretty consistent most of the time

 

[Evo1883]

Allen on for Kelly

We've had just 2 shots.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Kelly's positioning is almost like a third centre back which then stifles Eccles. Palmer's work rate just isn't there. O'Hare has probably been our brightest player.

We need to move the ball up the pitch quicker as we look dangerous when we do it, too often we're playing silly triangles. I'd be tempted to bring Allen on to try and give us a bit more energy in midfield.

 

[Blind-Faith]

Get Wilson on up top, loves a goal at their place

McFadzean and Hyam is asking to be punished by pace, but it’s all been too slow as you say.

Be fuming if Norwich go to Blues final day already secure in play offs.

Sheaf is such a massive player for us.

Looking likely.

Throw Fabio on for last 15 min with instructions to run down through a tired defense

Birmingham look set to get away with being shit yet again in that case

Good idea!

 

[ccfcchris]

I hate criticizing players but for me, Palmer is not the answer for us as we strive to grow and improve.

 

[Jamesimus]

Blackburn look poor, we look tired and devoid of attacking ideas. Bobert good, Kelly pretty bad.

Think Blackburn now have to win this if scores stay the same?

 

[PVA]

Might take him a while to run all the way from Coventry.

 

[robbiethemole]

No doubt now 2-1 up v Swansea already on 75 points

 

[curly_tom]

With Niorwich winning it's all a bit moot. It would be nice to win, just to end the poor run but the team have that look about them like they know there is nothing on it. I think we will probably see out a draw. There's nothing to bring on that will make a difference.

Even with ankle ligament damage that needs surgery?

That’s a completely understandable criticism and one I agree with. I enjoy watching him sometimes, but sometimes isn’t enough.

 

[steve101]

Shouting out for fresh legs - get Lusala and Andrews on.

 

[TomRad85]

Helped by us, typically.

For the ultimate old gang reunion we could get Godden on second half and shift Simms to the right

 

[shmmeee]

Good idea!

Maybe get Saka on too!

 

[robbiethemole]

Plodding in the middle get some legs on asap

 

[JohnWH]

Never do what your opponent expects

 

[Old Warwickshire lad]

Palmer is pretty consistent most of the time

Just pray someone makes us an offer and we accept. Can’t wait to see the back of him.
