We are bang average because most teams in the championship are bang average. We were bang average last season too and so was every team except Fulham. Ok we’ve won 2 out of 2 but we’re still pretty average. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already with a pretty thin squad we look a lot, lot better. Two opening wins, 4 goals and 2 clean sheets - could hardly have done better. We might just have unearthed a managerial diamond who will take us on a REAL JOURNEY!!! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a perfectly executed away win you say we're bang average.

roverandout Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Listening to jdt gives real positive vibes. Must be enjoyable in training. I can imagine the players were bored shitless with Mowbray 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical response. if we're bang average, what are they? You just got done 3-0 at your own place and you calling the other team bang average?

Venky's - make sure you back this feckin manager as he knows what he's doing and he might just help you to recoup huge parts of your losses. I think you've already started on the reds!

Miller11 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Looking forward to watching the highlights. It was radio for me today. Like the idea of playing with purpose and actually trying to score when we get forward rather than the confused ideas of the last couple of seasons. Travis appears to be getting rapidly unMowbrayed. He always looked like he could play box to box but learning from Smallwood looked to have turned him into a budget Robbie Savage. JDT seems to think more of him and it’s paying dividends. Few quid on Szmodics first scorer at 8/1 was a nice bonus too! A proper managerial appointment working early wonders!!

JacknOry Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Yeah, when Travis first came in, he was a breath of fresh air. Always looking forward. Admittedly, he was replacing some dross. It started to go. Mowbrayed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBar Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I think Jim and Sparks do have a point too. Really happy with the win and am enjoying the start to the season as much as anyone but still plenty of room for improvement and seems like these wins could easily go the opposite way. There is an underlying sense of fragility about most championship teams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyblue Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Of course we are ‘average’ in the grand scheme of things. By that benchmark Celtic are an average side, Ajax are an average side, Porto are an average side because they all play in average leagues. Doesn’t necessarily mean we will be an average side this season in comparison to others in the division we actually operate in.

Paul Mellelieu Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It seems that JDT is bending the team to his will. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBar Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Kaminski is as good as you can get in the championship imo. Brittain looks a solid RB. Pickering needs upgrading. He was nowhere at times today and alot of teams single him out for a reason. Ayala and Scotty seem a sound pairing. Cover needed badly. Trav off to a flyer. Always loved him and happy to see him back to his best. Buckley. We know my thoughts but there is a place for him but not starting every game. Sammie. Too early to tell, took his goal very well, supported the play brilliantly before slotting home. Hedges. Delighted for him, alot questioned him without a fair crack of the whip from January on. Gally. I do try and see the positives but when he is bad it's hard to defend. Useful when on form but all too rare. Ben. Picked up from last season with a sublime goal. Gambling on keeping him must mighty tempting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
