We just need to get our best players on the pitch as regularly and consistently as possible
Sunlun were the better team but it did take 2 own goals to beat us and that's with 3 players making their debut, 2 shadows up front and at #10 and them having pretty much their best 11 that's played together all season
I have a good feeling about this 9 day break we've had
Seis puntos Cifuentes?!
Hard to say really cos apart from Leeds we're basically top of every good stat
Isn't a manager in this league I'd rather have than Carrick I'd say
Honestly since Wilder took over I’ve never seen anything like the goals we concede
Worldies, flukes, own goals, deflections, defensive mishaps
It is just not meant to be for this club, we will rot in this division for decades
I cba ruining my week by watching us lose to 2 own goals any longer
We will never ever experience anything close to what we did in the noughties again, I’m just thankful I got to see it

This one? I was thinking surely Travers would be in goal so didn't believe it
It just baffles me that it isn't being addressed or seemingly even noticed
I don't claim to know anything about footy but I said Hackney and Barlaser wouldn't work 2 summers ago
Something worth noting about Iling Jr is that he played as a wing back for Juve
You can see it sometimes in his youtube highlights that he has a physical side to him
Comparing IJr last season to Doak this season for example and he has much higher defensive contributions across the board
2.56 tackles p90 to Doak's 1.31
1.44 tackles won p90 to Doak's 0.81
Double Doak's tackles in the defensive and midfield 3rd too so I imagine/hope he'll be helping Giles out considerably
1.89 blocks p90 to 0.86
2.11 clearances p90 to 0.71
Obviously some of this will be the difference in position but it bodes well for our left side
I need a new car but I'm not buying one just in case I win the Euromillions and then have to buy an even better car
The only midfield problem we have is that Barlaser is attracting so much interest! Derby, Rotherham, Huddersfield, etc. We're lucky to have him starting regularly for us
