Ok, tbf the lad has time on his side. Id imagine Bidders will be gone at the end of the season, so a decision will need to be made then on Brau. If we are in the PL next season I think Brau may be moved on and replaced, if we fuck up promotion he will be kept on as second choice LB (Imo)...

Praising a player for what he does off the ball is manager speak for acknowledging theres a problem with him not contributing with the ball. Its still early days of course, but Arsenal have a big problem with fitting Gyokeres into a style of play that doesn't suit him.

From a pen. Yes they all count, but he looked like a fish out of water before getting dragged after an hour.

He will be 24 next weekend, and hes been training with us long enough to be trusted for a home game against Swansea. He won't be playing against Barcelona, just a poor team in a relegation fight from the second level of English football. Let's not make out this game is something its not.

Or even a centre right government.

Hes plenty good enough to be on the bench as back up for Rushworth. In fact its a good job we kept him around. If we keep Rushworth on, past his loan, then obviously Wilson moves on once Dovin is fit. (Or maybe Dovin moves on?) Until then we should be grateful hes available.

There needs to be a third "viable" option Pete, im not saying reform are the answer, but the answer sure as hell ain't another Labour or Tory government. If reform do get in at the next election, it will be because the other parties have lost the trust of the people. Thats a damming...

He had a glorious chance first half and really should of scored. Second half there wasn't the room for him to use his pace as we sat back and put bodies behind the ball. In hindsight they should of had a big centre forward to bring on to challenge for crosses as it became too comfortable for...

Can't believe some of the negativity on here just lately. We've had a full week to prepare, and get over the runny noses, so we will have players back, rested and ready to go. Time to get back to the free scoring we saw earlier this season. Someone's due a spanking, and the Swans might be...

That second half was ideal for both Lats and Woolfy, neither had to leave the penalty box, so they were never going to be caught out for a lack of pace or mobility. Also Southampton didn't have much of a aerial threat, so didn't cause us to much trouble other than set pieces. Things might...

A home game against Swansea would be the ideal time to give him a start. If he isnt considered good enough to be in the team for that game then we really need to be asking questions.

He only turned 24 a fortnight ago, so theres still time for him to develop, even though hes already captained Sunderland and played 200 games in his career. I'd trust Lampard to make him a premier league player by next August, and at the very least hed be a decent player to have on the bench.

Wouldn't that put us 2 players over our maximum squad number?

Wages would be a big problem I'd imagine, I'd expect him to be earning a lot more than we would be willing to pay.

His contract is up at the end of the season, so a loan till then makes sense, it gives him a chance to get game time, and help us get over the line, while keeping every sides options open.

1 winger who can play on either wing would be ideal. And a DM who can cover Grimes/Torp Wright can also cover EMC (with Simms up front) if needs be. BTA should be back before the window closes so that adds more cover to the squad. I'd sooner see quality than quantity added, and depending on...

There's always been something a little "odd" about David Walliams IMHO. Put it this way, you wouldn't want him anywhere near children unsupervised.

He should of had 2 pens in that time though. And did get a player sent off against Preston, he also has a goal chalked off when EMC was given offside, and hes come up against goalkeepers who have played out of their skin. He is in a dry spell, but hes has no luck either.

True, although I have a feeling the club might be sold if we do get promoted. It would make sense for Doug to sell then as the club and facility would be at its highest value, and he might look to cash out and let someone with deeper pockets take over. (No idea who's out there though, maybe...

I'd like to see us invest some serious money in a proper premier league class training facility, then maybe Ryton could be used as a top level academy set up. That would set up our infrastructure to be competitive with the bigger PL clubs.
