Tyrone Shoelaces

I think they wanted somebody who they could play a more direct game with if they needed to. When their usual intricate short passing isn’t working.

I don’t think so. They were crying out for a central striker last season and most City fans thought he was “ the last piece of the jigsaw “.

I could have gone up to my son’s house to watch it. I’m not feeling great at the moment so I gave it a swerve. I didn’t want to end up feeling worse. His text after the game “ Can I have those two hours back please “ ?

I don’t think his legs are up to a midfield role these days.

Or we’ll wake up one morning to see the Chicken Chokers have appointed somebody that nobody on this site had even considered for the job.

No way. They’ll get a severe letting off.

Yeah, it’ll be for bouncing the ball on an opponents head. Nearly as stupid as the Kevin Ball red card.

I still haven’t got over that pass in the first minute at Rotherham. Brain dead.

Jorgan Locadia is available apparently.

“ Bang “.

I think it’s his pride that got injured.

You could get a bloke out of the crowd in the Blackburn End to do what Vale does.

That’s the problem, you’re dead right. He’s got no pride.

I’ve seen him score better goals than that. Let him run at you and you were dead.

I’m sick of hearing it. When are we going to show some desire and self confidence. Do you think Dyche said “ We’ll give this one a miss lads, they’re way too good for us, just try and keep the score down “ on Saturday when they beat the top of the league ? One thing I learnt a long while ago - “ Give players an excuse not to perform and they’ll take it “.

This season the division is piss poor. We were third a week ago, that tells you how bad it is. That’s why I’m so annoyed we’ve blown another golden chance in the transfer window. Next season will be nye on impossible for us.

If I was Gallagher I’d be well pissed off.

I could do without Vale starting. I presume the left sided Thomas will be starting on the right. Happy days.

He played where he was told to play just like any other pro. You don’t do that you get dropped.

No.

If had to chose one player to keep him quiet it would be Nyambe. Quicker and stronger.

Corboran being talked about apparently.

I’m concerned how the apparent willingness to bring in a player on possibly twice our highest earner’s wages will go down with the rest of the wasters. It wouldn’t be so bad if he came in and tore up the midfield play. At least he could say then - “ that’s why they pay me what they do “. As it is now it’s the worst of both worlds.

What I’m pointing out is that having spent more money on players isn’t the be all and end all. What’s beating under the badge counts for a lot. Everton beat Arsenal on Saturday because somebody managed to instil some motivation, desire and self belief into a team that a week ago was on the ropes.

Money.
