  1. And the rest. More like 9 million.
  2. That second half is the best we've played for a long time. 1 to 11 superb.
  3. Not sure if Alfie may is fit but stansfield and Lyndon Dykes are out. The RB Laird is decent, glad he's not playing.
  4. I can't see Murphy breaking into the Newcastle side. Definitely not good enough for that level. But I thought Owen Beck was shite too and he's gone on to do ok. He gets caught out of position too many times, not great going forward and not particularly quick. His only standout attribute is his height. Maybe he would be a better CB, but at the moment he's definitely a weak link.
  5. Forrester MOTM by a country mile. Thought we should of had a pen in that goalmouth scramble. Their player dived in front of ball and blatantly blocked it with his hand.
  6. Had the better of the last 25 minutes but not testing the keeper. Need to get some shots on goal. These are the type of team to get a nothing goal from a set piece.
  7. Murphy didn't look good defending one on one against that winger second half. He turned his back a couple of times when getting run at which wasn't great. He's tall and it does cut out the diagonal ball a bit because teams don't try it as much as they would with a smaller player, so that's a positive. He's young and inexperienced but he deffo needs be better than that defensively for the rest of the season.
  8. 3 in 2 now, doing his job
  9. Schumacher earned his coin today. Time and again we're down at HT and his changes turn it. Do think we need to stop giving soft goals away though.
  10. Looked offside.
  11. Deffo looks like a 433/451 on paper.
  12. Fancy us today. Not sure what to make of these. In good form but they don't scare me. Think these are quite attacking so 3 at the back probably best as we haven't got to grips with 4 yet. Id even leave tutu on the bench to bring him on fresh second half.
  13. Seems to be all back tbh.
  14. Stop fishing. It was an easy pull back in loads of space.
  15. They need to play with that urgency from the start. Move it quicker, be willing to run with the ball and take it out from the back. Toal scored one and set up the second by being proactive and taking the ball forward. First half too much sideways shite. Was nice to see Schumacher call it out in his interview for what it was ,....rubbish. Nice to see Mcatee gets his rewards. Was unlucky at Wrexham with that one that hit the post, and was unlucky with that header in the first half. He has good movement and if we can keep getting the ball in the box, he will get goals.
  16. Southwood should of come for that. 6 yard box.
  17. Don't think this second half really determines that does it. Theres a much bigger picture to be painted.
  18. 1 to 11 all poor. Not a single decent performance. Need to be much better second half. Need Sheehan and tutu on sharpish
  19. He's a forward, think that's clear now given it didn't work out him dropping into midfield earlier in season. Also he got 16 at Grimsby one year, too many for a midfielder. probs disagree about Barnsley. They liked him. He suited their pressing style. As others have pointed out, Huddersfield fans have a much different opinion of Dion than we do . He's definitely shown glimpses, Crawley away etc. I think he works better In a two and not a 1. Not seen the best of him but I don't think we've seen the best of most of our players. Hes most likely gonna be in double figures come the end of the season though.
  20. Frustrating watch, but time to concentrate on the league. I think we probably need 3 in midfield as we did look more solid.
  21. This ref is a cock.
  22. Feel like Baxter could of least dived there. Seemed to be more towards his side.
  23. So firstly, of the top of my head, one of his assists was crawley away where Mcatee smashed that one in the top corner. He played a simple pass to Mcatee , but that was all Mcatee. His other that I can remember was Northampton away, again for Mcatee, early ball across. Can't remember his other one. Point being both of these were from relatively deep positions, positions you would find yourself in as wing back. If were playing 4 at the back, he's being asked to do something different as an attacking midfielder wide player. He's not getting the ball In deep positions anymore, he's getting it in the final third. He's not got the profile to play as an attacking midfielder. Hes not quick enough to beat a player with pace alone. Hes no right foot which makes him easier to defend against. He's weak, very weak. I can't remember him consistently putting in amazing balls as wing back. I honestly can't remember that many. There is nothing he's shown with us that to me shows he's been good enough to operate as a creative attacking midfielder. JDC has 5 assists and he gets more shit than most Bolton players and he's fucking miles better than Schon. Some of the shit JDC gets on here is laughable. There no hatred, sure he's a nice bloke, but I think he's shit.
  24. Show me the footage. Find some footage. Because I can easy get you some footage of him coming inside all day long.
  25. Opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one. He's no better than Randall Williams, and id argue worse because at least Randall was quick. I'm sure he's a nice lad who works really hard, but we need better than him in that position. He's been a bad signing .
