Hopefully last night can be the catalyst for Barnes to go on one of his runs. He has tended to be quite a streaky striker for us historically, so it wouldn't surprise me.

I thought he was excellent last night against Matip and Fabinho, they really struggled with his 'tricks'.

In the next round of fixtures WBA play City, so you'd expect a City win, and Sheff Utd play away at Man Utd, so you'd expect a Man Utd win, leaving Fulham v Brighton as the most interesting fixture. So, do we want a fulham win, to keep Brighton down there and interested, or do we want a Brighton wi...

Firstly not taking anything away from our full backs who were also outstanding to a man, but, I think what we have all thought for a while needs saying once more.

The best unit of goalkeeper and two centre backs in the entire Premier League.

jedi_master

Not bad.

Wish Vydra had played though - it’s pathetic.

jedi_master

We need a new option up front - and someone proven yet affordable. You would struggle to find a better fit than Josh King, who is also rapid which is something we hugely lack. I think that would be a top signing. If we were able to flog Vydra this month and bring in King, that’s a significant upgrad...

He is out of contract in the summer so I would imagine it's permanent.

Lingard gets stick for his assists/goals over the last two seasons but I would say it's probably inarguable that he would be a vast improvement on the options we have in the attacking midfield/right wing areas. If the player is willing to go on loan to a club such as Sheffield United or Burnley, tha...

One surefire way to refute Amazon's allegations is to get some players signed

jedi_master

The forward line have been poor to a man this season. Rodriguez and Vydra haven’t scored in the league for months, and have been totally ineffective in most of their appearances as well. I fully agree that Barnes and Wood have been poor, particularly of late. The reality is Dyche is probably looking...

Perhaps we have to sell before we can buy.

Absolute joke if that turns out to be the case.

I would be bringing McNeil, Rodriguez and Vydra on at half time. Barnes and Wood have been great players for us, but this form is awful and Dyche has been very patient. I had hoped the criticism they had received (even publicly from Dyche) might get a reaction, but this today is just a continuation ...

Unsure what Wood’s moan is about there.

Post hit by West Ham

Brady has been playing well - but can we please permanently take him off set pieces? He is absolutely awful at them.

jedi_master

West Brom win, Brighton winning.

Bad day for us this if it stays the same.

jedi_master

It’s the strange paradox with this team.

We go one in front, I am confident we will win. We go one down, I’m certain we’ll lose. There’s no Inbetween.

jedi_master

The team that can’t score going one down currently is worrying every time.

jedi_master

Awful defending, what on Earth were they doing?

jedi_master

You have to think that if today doesn’t see a huge improvement from Wood and Barnes then they will be dropped.

Pressure can bring the best out in a player!

jedi_master

Deeney is not an exciting prospect, but Dyche would play him and he would most likely score goals for us. For all the shouting about him, he scored 10 goals in 27 league games last season for a relegated Watford team. He might be 32, but if on an 18 month contract is it really the worst idea in the ...

jedi_master

How certain of this and does it get the pulse racing?!

jedi_master

If Dyche doesn’t rate him (and I think it’s fairly clear he doesn’t), then it’s best for all parties he goes this window.

We absolutely need a centre forward in to replace him, and not some Nahki Wells style clear backup/pointless signing but someone to really put pressure on Wood and Barnes.

Well, I am not doing Keto, but I have lost (as of this morning) 12.4lbs since January 1st. What am I eating? A ham sandwich at dinner (that's right...a SANDWICH! :o ) and a Hello Fresh meal (the weekly food subscription boxes) for my tea. I work from home since Covid started so go for a walk at dinn...

I really don’t see what Kenny would offer us. Played in arguably the worst bundesliga team of the last decade (won one game in the last 12 months) and he was bang average. I watched him a few times last season and he’s not better than either RB we currently have. These are the players that have pla...

Everton have apparently set the price for Jonjoe kenny of 7 million, that's Burnley going in with the first offer of 4 million, then 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 ect :lol: Seems a fair and reasonable price in this climate. I have been translating some Schalke fans opinions on a YouTube video of his Schalke highli...

So from what I have gleaned, Quaison is generally deployed in either a number 10 role or off either flank as opposed to up front. This makes his goal return very healthy, particularly for a Mainz side which is currently bottom of the Bundesliga. I also stumbled upon a quote from Mainz’s chairman reg...

Feels inevitable.

jedi_master

The age old topic of ‘what’s our best ever squad’ has been done to death, and rightly gets dominated by the players that brought us our 1950s-60s success, in the main. This makes sense and is obvious, but makes the question almost academic/depending on when you were born. As we have ten days ago rea...

their player Sorinola looks like a good player

We were linked with him a couple of months ago.

jedi_master

What today has illustrated is just what this season overall has.

Our front line, including wide, needs extensive investment. I would suggest we need at least one centre forward, and without question a right winger.

jedi_master

Mumbongo is a threat, looks unorthodox as Hell but he certainly commits a player.

jedi_master

Glennon looked class in his cameo in the Carabao, and he’s looked class again here. I want to see much more of him.

jedi_master

I bet Dyche is fuming that we scored then.

(Just joking!)

Not suggesting we ‘throw’ cup games, but there is too much of a coincidental style to these games over the last few years for it to not be an ingrained culture of not caring if we do actually win. It’s rubbish as a fan, but as sad as it is I only care on the day and then forget about it till the nex...
