Osborn not very good. Cashin outstanding Couldn't stop their magic man though. That guy with the hi vis yellow and orange absolute game changer to be fair

Wheres the anti Warne brigade gone? They were out in full force a few weeks ago

What are you playing it on? I have downloaded it/ got it for free but can't find it within my android...

We win 3 0 everyone's happy. If we lose that game playing the same way the Warne out bridge would have been on here. We had less possession this game then any other yet everyone's now happy with the style?

All the anti Warne brigade. This is your thread for tonight

I wish this post could be pinned. Absolute nail on the head stuff

After all the anti Warne discussions this week. I know there's a bad winner here but this is how I feel right now logging into this forum

In reality I can't see how it's a pathetic window. Goalkeeper I'm very confident is an upgrade Defence a slight upgrade Midfield is definitely an upgrade despite losing bird Strike force has only slightly improved and that's the disappointment but I still think Yates will score a few and there's a free agent or 2 out there if we could get them will give us a solid upgrade. It's far from a 10/10 window as we are still too weak left back. Attacking mid and striker options. But surely it's a 6 at an absolute minimum. We have enough to at least scrape survival I think

Yates will score goals. I just wanted 1 more with him. Once we confirmed Phillips it looked like 5 at the back but now we are getting wingers so it's a little confusing You can't play wing backs and wingers unless those 'wingers' are narrow

Haven't they signed jebbison today? So a striker up ?

Is Aaron connolly still available for free? I'm really surprised no one picked him up yet

His wage demands meant Blackburn didn't bother. Was this the same for Hull? I get the feeling he is pricing himself too high and he's past his best without realising it. Safe to say I'm not convinced

Warne clearly isn't going to say these are our only targets when there's negotiations to be had with the current club.

I knew I needed a tinfoil hat to go against the grain so appreciate you making it a discussion instead of berating my opinion. Can't argue Warne got to impose his style in a lesser league (obviously) however it's a fact it worked. Under other managers it felt like we were passing for passing sake and not scoring goals. Under cocu I'm pretty sure we went on a terrible run of binary code scorelines which I think has scarred me. What I like about the PW style is I feel like we are always in the game, I think there's explosive break aways available to us and in my head we don't concede loads and we score goals. With our squad and our budget I just can't see us playing any other way and having success from it. I think so far we have looked OK. Blackburn we were on top at 1-1 then collapsed. Middlesbrough we did the right thing by not going toe to toe as they would smash us if we did with our squad quality compared to theirs. Watford we could have got a point on another day so I think the reaction now is just fans who have been waiting to jump on Warne at the first given moment.

This is where I appear to be completely on my own. I think it's a lazy narrative the football style is naff. I enjoy the style. I probably need ghost of clough to work his magic with stats but under cocu and rooney and rosenior to an extent it was too much slow build up sideways passing. I haven't done the research so I may be proven wrong here but in my head we score more goals under Warne then the 3 before him. We definitely sorted out the set piece problem where we've gone from being awful at them to good.
