    Evolution of Jack Rudoni

    This could be another long read so if you don’t fancy it now’s your chance to dip out now! Seen a lot of talk about Rudoni and rightly so. His goal on Saturday reminded me of the first time I heard of him. He was in the middle of his second season at Wimbledon and was gaining plaudits as a ‘box...

    Milan Van Ewijk and Tatsu Sakamoto - Casualties of the System

    Thought Sakamoto was very good yesterday, seemed to be able to operate in his usual way despite his starting positions. Seems this is the way we’ll set up from now. Very fluid of course but this was the most common I noticed: Rudoni in that left wing spot worth noting. Also a fair bit of...

    Chris Jones and Joe Edwards

    Edwards is an interesting one isn’t he. Well regarded enough to get a championship manager job. Wonder if Lampard will look to bring in Cole or Morris too down the line.

    Summer Transfer Window

    I could be missing it… but where did Lampard mention an option in those quotes😂

    I think Bidwell would be required for set pieces without that third centre back. Having Sakamoto, Dasilva, MVE potentially Allen too would be suicide. Look at what happened in the first 5 mins of Lampard’s first game.

    Pretty good effort that is mate.

    Blog Latest CCFC Analysis article - How to beat PNE

    I wouldn’t as we were 20th at the time. They have wins against Watford and Wednesday and I would argue neither will be near the play offs at the end of the season but I take your point. They were rubbish for 20 games opening the season and didn’t win a game against a back 4 until December. In...

    Blog Latest CCFC Analysis article - How to beat PNE

    What are the quality of teams that play a back four compared to a back five though? Their most impressive wins as of late are beating Middlesbrough and Norwich who both play a back four. They also got a point against Burnley who also play a back four. As far as I can see the wins against teams...

    You will likely see that when Sheaf returns. A midfield trio of Torp, Rudoni and Grimes is a bit soft.

    I got mine this morning but was able to get one for my cousin at around 5 past 12. Such a rubbish away day made worse that it’s early kick off

    As much as it goes against my character, you will all be surprised to hear I actually like the light shows. Will be much better than the usual rubbish playlist mix I hope.

    SIMM’s second goal

    Would be crazy to play MVE at centre half. Baffling suggestion. Also unsure what assist he got yesterday but thought he played well none the less.

    Cov v Stoke

    If we win, serenade him as much as we want. If we lose, best to ignore him.

    V silent in the stands. Lampard’s sub was bizarre. He needs to rectify this or we will lose
