    or Wright, or Simms, or JDS, or MVE, or KP, and so on and so on…. That’s the beauty of this forum, and also football in general, people have opinions 👍🏼

    fair - and people can make up their own minds, I screenshotted there because that was where it was obvious Torp pressed the ball and Eccles was in no man’s land he eventually marked a man, but (in my opinion) if you watch his movement before that he stands around and then ambles back for a bit...

    well I agree with this, but it’s the same point Calista was making re Torp, which I was trying to prove by pointing out there’s always an agenda, and it wasn’t actually his fault even though he got the blame

    that’s Josh Eccles marking the ref - Torp is pressing the ball, and the guy making the run appears to be Eccles’ man (who runs on and puts the ball in, and who Torp was criticised for not keeping up with / tracking)

    glad I’m brightening your day 👍🏼☀️ I do try to be balanced though, and I’m pretty sure I praised him last game too

    sorry, just to clear this up, if you watch it back the run wasn’t tracked by Eccles, and that left Torp with two men as the ball was played past him - that’s why he pointed and questioned the marking before trying to make up the distance as Eccles just stood around. yes there was a lack of...

    he’s coming home, he’s coming home, he’s coming….. H***r’s coming home….. he’s only cost £15 million and we think he’s still f’ing brilliant

    completely agree with this, and would add that MVE also exceptional when he came on, and I thought Kitching was very good… we need to sort the midfield out to play out from the back and control games, and hopefully Sheaf will allow us to do that more, particularly if Torp and Rudoni go up...

    Match Thread Oxford United (H) [LC] 27 Aug 7:45pm KO

    I think the thing is, that is a game he really needs to be dominating if he’s to be taken seriously as a first choice top quality midfielder, and yet he didn’t - and that’s against a poor side’s second string, yet as soon as Sheaf came on there was a massive noticeable difference, not only in...

    agree to disagree - I thought, considering the team we were up against, I expected a lot more, but that’s just my opinion, I didn’t rate his performance tonight and thought he was the poorest player in our team noticeably

    Match Thread Oxford United (H) [LC] 27 Aug 7:45pm KO

    not sure I can entirely agree with that - and if the ball doesn’t go to one of our players it’s a fairly irrelevant point anyway… KP, and even Allen were pretty progressive with their passes, and the centre halves were also playing some pretty decent balls forward too

    Match Thread Oxford United (H) [LC] 27 Aug 7:45pm KO

    bearing in mind we were playing an Oxford 2nd string in a Mickey Mouse cup that nobody really cares about if we’re being honest…. Eccles was poor, too many mistakes, poor passes, once in particular lost the ball, gave up the chase back then threw his hands up and blamed Lats after he’d got him...
