  1. National team of #Guatemala , Nathaniel Méndez-Laing has already accumulated nine goals and 15 assists in all competitions for Derby County this season in England. There are rumors of interest from two interested @MLS teams. #LAFC and #DCUnited . Almost too niche not to take seriously. Could see him going. Lifestyle change, much closer to his international commitments.
  2. Directly contributed to 22 goals in the league (24 all comps). He’s potentially the league’s POTS not just ours.
  3. Wolves away was f****** b*******, Bent gets clattered by Batth, clean through on goal but Ince scores from the resultant loose ball. It’s either advantage and a goal or a red and a free-kick. Free-kick and a yellow. Not sure Collins missing would have the same impact as Martin, mind. Martin wasn’t just our goal scorer, he was our creator as well.
  4. I’m not sure there’s any major secret as to why we went into administration. We had an owner whose net worth was £500,000,000 and in his first three years as owner the club had lost £97,000,000.
  5. For whatever reason, these things always seem biased towards defenders. I don’t know if it’s because their job’s to be consistent and to make lots of smaller contributions throughout a match or what. But even in the Exeter ratings, a lot of people have Nelson and NML as the same, despite the latter getting a goal and an assist. Everybody craves a 20 goal a season striker and a wingers equivalent to that is 10 goals and 10 assists. With just under a third of the season left to go NML’s already on 8 and 12 (9 and 14 in all comps). He’s having an incredible season so far and yet I get the impression he isn’t even favourite for our POTS.
  6. I’m hoping Connor Bradley’s emergence forces Liverpool’s hand into playing Alexander-Arnold in midfield. If he excels there he might be it. Wilshere’s the one. At 32 he should be the one pulling the strings in this England midfield. Instead he’s been retired for three years.
  7. There were two teams in that game… I’ve banged on about it before but we still lack a midfielder that can dictate the tempo. Jorginho and Veratti* gradually started controlling that match as Modric had done three years prior. *Veratti alone made more passes than England’s ENTIRE midfield that night.
  8. No offence… but doesn’t not being that engaged with an England team that’s repaired relations with the tabloids whilst coming off a World Cup Semi-final and Euros final in 2/3 tournaments say more about you?
  9. There’s just no identity, I don’t get what we are. We work hard and have better players than almost everyone else.
  10. Claimed a disabled parking spot as his own at Morley Hayes and kicked off when a disabled person used it, if that helps? 😂
  11. Yeaaah as I thought, Kohli’s out of the next two tests now and likely to miss the last.
  12. Think it’s because of betting, genuinely
  13. Hahahahaha Ninos, Pearson and Toddy 😂
  14. At one point we had a spell were Sammon, Russell, Ward and Bryson missed like 7 of 9. Don’t think Martin was particularly brilliant at them either. The average across football is 3 out of 4 are scored. They’re not THAT easy.
  15. Wouldn’t even call it a chance
  16. This series is on TalkSPORT
  17. Think I’d read or heard somewhere that it’s more than likely that he’ll miss more than a couple
  18. To be fair, Marcus Olsson had just done his ACL and Fozzy hadn’t looked himself after his second (and would go on to do his third shortly after)
  19. It’s only letting me book a seat if there’s only one so I assume that’s literally THE last seat
  20. Is this different from the Skills coaches?
  21. Anybody know of anywhere that has two spaces left? Heanor, Ripley and the official ones are all fully booked.

    He doesn’t, he has diagonal and a sweeping ball out wide in his locker

    I wonder if we were looking what they can’t do rather what they can do. Cashin isn’t quick, he has no right foot, he’s small, he can’t zip passes through the line, he doesn’t carry it out from the back. But By-Christ he’ll out-compete the opposition, he’ll outwork them, he’ll win most of his 50/50s, he can tackle… I think we overrate him but he’s got enough to have a good career. Then Festy… I always used to describe him as the best bad footballer I've ever seen. A sloppy pass fumbler with limited technical ability. But he had the pace and power just to knock it past one or two defenders, outsprint them and drill the ball in. They have significant weaknesses… but they have enough strengths to forge good players.
