He can go for whatever we get. Worst case scenario, he's goes for free but we save at least £1m on wages for the last year of his contract. That's assuming about £20K a week. It's probably more.

Humble Pie collected and consumed and repeat double order made for Skeggs for the coming weeks!
Well done Monsieur Lamouchi for putting out a very resilient team. Having to defend deeper with our slowest centre back pairing made life difficult going forward but we coped well.
Muric's confidence is growing, Cash showed he can do a job at right back and Semedo looks a real find!
Looking forward to seeing the new defensive pairings introduced and Bostock who should get us ticking over a bit quicker in midfield to help the forwards.
More than happy if we can grind out results in the coming weeks whilst the everyone settles in and then push on.
Well done lads.
COYR's.

Content with the draw. Probably didn't deserve it. Grabban for me is poor. He's too eager to pull shirts and find himself offside. Lucky toe poke but fouled just before that. Other than Semedo, Sow and Ameobi thought we had no direction and looked no better than the O'Neil days. Lolley needs to get on his game again.

I can see exactly what your saying stevie, a good point but its difficult to see how we can take the game to the opposition.
Grabban isolated for the most part feeding off scraps, this is where I don't see why Watson gets a game, he's too slow and colback was the same although technically better.
You have to have pace to worry the opposition and when ameobi came on Leeds suddenly had a problem up to that they didn't.
The fact is that starting eleven will always struggle to score, not strong enough and not got the pace to trouble the opposition.

11 Aug 2019 17:05:10
Totally agree. Need a loan striker in asap. Out of those available would be Bony for me. Early days yet to comment on Mir but found him pushed off the ball far too easily.
Ameobi is an absolute animal. Definitely got to be in the first 11 here on in.

Not sure what game you were watching, Red, but Matty Cash is no good at right back. Never stops a cross. Keeper doesn't fill me with much confidence either as yet.
Agree5
0Disagree
11 Aug 2019 20:40:45
Was more impressed with Cash at right back this time. Admit the keeper is still a bag of nerves and have to say Robinson was left a bit isolated and was lucky only got a booking and not to give away a penalty. Going forward was and stil is a big problem with only Grabban to aim for.

we do need a striker but in the mean time i'm sure we will set up differently against other sides. We have played 2 of the favourites for promotion and away to one of them, its all about tactics for each game.

I'd loan out most of the dross we've got playing against Leeds still no movement of the ball can't pass for toffee grabban still not had a decent ball put into him dawson banging 40 yard balls to nobody, we've go 40 players on our books surely we can find 11 that can play football.

Dan what do you expect from these players with all the constant changes it's the second game of the season away at a Leeds side who have been together a lot longer and its 0-0 I will take that all day long at 90 minutes not many teams will go there this season and create much.

All ways same excuse not had time they've had a full pre season, What's the excuse for not being able to pass 10 yards or hitting the ball 50 yards to nobody, last week Brom had 5 new players in they made us look crap, in 10 games time will it still be they've not had enough time together.

I actually thought there was quite a few positives. Leeds targeted Cash, cause you know you totally would, he's not a full back. Now we got Jenkinson for the next game. Semedo looks all of the projected 25mil. Ameobi made an impact and silva looks tight. Sorry Ben Watson but he won't be in a squad pushing for promotion.
Agree2
0Disagree
10 Aug 2019 16:59:59
Positives for today?
1. Hopefully that will be Cash's last game as a defender.
2. Ameobi looks like he can be a class player for us and showed some good skill.
3. Samedo looks really good, and an exciting player.
4. Muric will hopefully be more confident for the game.
5. Sow looks decent.
6. Defence was solid.
Some not so good bits:
1. Not being anywhere creative enough.
2. Grabban looks elsewhere.
3. Lolley looks out of sorts today and first game.
4. Watson is crudd.
5. Passing was atrocious for most part.
Onwards and upwards.

Defo not spot on. cash was quality today and I wouldn’t change him, don’t change a player that’s played well.
Grabban looks elsewhere? he was pushed pulled and prodded all game. he was getting no service whatsoever and dropped deep to get a touch of the ball and ran with it and used the ball well when he did settting us on some attacks. if you don’t appreciate that then you will never be happy.

I'll be behind any team we put out on matchdays red dog but the recruitment leaves us praying grabban doesn't get injured, that's no way to go into a league campaign and expect top six.
It will be interesting who he puts out against Leeds that's for sure.

I don't think it's for the lack of trying though mate. He is trying to get rid and some could still go lower league or abroad.
Just read that he was after a striker so expect a free agent to come in
I will be peed off if no change of keeper tomorrow.

09 Aug 2019 23:18:37
Blimey red dog we agree on something. lol😀
I've no doubt a free agent will come in it's a case of will he be fit and how long that takes.
I just think if we had added 4 good players to what we had then wed have a happier atmosphere at the club.
Anyway heres hoping Lamouchi is the one and he pulls off a result tomorrow.

Let's do a Barcelona when they were the best and play no strikers to begin with. Taken grabban to the bench and play 5 or 6 of our best midfielders. Cash, semedo, carvalho, silva, lolley, adomah and no striker then can bring grabban on if need be. Got a solid defence now and GK positions look better, muric will come good and with pants and samba were looking ok. Even appiah, johnson and ameobi could fit into the barcaforest formation.
