Force of habit! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
AdamBoro 5 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 So it seems like we all agree we could be in for a relegation battle this season and not a mid table steadier. Link to post Share on other sites

Them kind of players are not that easy to replace unfortunately. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't go that far.. Mid to top half of the table maybe but not relegated. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) Very frustrating to watch today. Thought we had some good chances in the half that we should have put away. But didn't take the chances and we ultimately got punished. Today wasn't helped by the fact we had to queue for the best part of an hour to pick up our tickets that we had already brought. Which meant missing the first 25 minutes! ??? Edit: Will do a proper write up of what my thoughts were after I'm back in the South. Link to post Share on other sites

Looks a decent prospect but very naive in defence. Still think with a run in the team as a bit part player hell become a really good player. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't really put a foot wrong, bailed other more experienced players out a number of times. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

There'll be many a player in Spain who could unlock a championship defence no problem but they're going to the likes of Birmingham instead of us Link to post Share on other sites
BoroYorkie 94 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Been at work and just had chance to read through the game thread. The first half was described as night and day compared to Pulis ball, this thread is also night and day first to second half ? sound like we did alright and were screwed by decisions. 2-0 up game would have been ours. Second half Brentford fought back.... it’s the 2nd game of the season. Work in progress. People who are starting now won’t be in a few games after some come back from injury and the new signings find their feet and claim the place. UTB Link to post Share on other sites
Ash 167 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Only thing I got to see was the two goals being disallowed. How was the game otherwise? Link to post Share on other sites

Excellent first half, bad opening 10 minutes of the second half, ran out of steam and ideas towards the end. You can see what we want to do though, so just need to keep moving forward ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's promising however has kinda been thrown into the deep end I think he's a good player to provide cover but not really a starter Link to post Share on other sites
