JP Hampton Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 5 minutes ago, Rudy said: The problem with some of our youngsters like Bell and Conway is that they'll try harder in the fa cup than the league because the FA cup is more focused on than the championship so they're trying to catch the eye of scouts from the big clubs (Or Bournemouth, probably Bournemouth) Well for starters Bell was on his favoured left side and I don’t think apart from the Leeds game you can complain about lack of effort from the team as a whole.

Popular Post GrahamC Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 1 minute ago, Kid in the Riot said: Undefeated over 90 minutes in four games against two different Premier League teams. Absolutely. Phenomenal effort tonight in light of those unavailable or not 100%. Just a quick word on Andy King, some of the comments before we kicked off in this thread were pathetic. Bloke is a class act, his availability this season puts others to shame & we have spent far more on players who have contributed far less. 38 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Harry Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 1 minute ago, Mr Popodopolous said: I wouldnt have made the change at that point in time. James for King is fine. Not sure about Cornick for Knight. Roberts has to have his minutes managed. He hasn’t played for 4 months. McCrorie has to have his minutes managed. He lost half his pelvis, didn’t play for 8 months. Knight runs 57 miles every game. He needs a rest sometimes. You realise that the players minutes are managed to the nth degree with all the sports scientists. All 3 were likely told they have 60 minutes today. I highly doubt Manning would have wanted to make those changes when he did. I mean, are some people so anti Manning that they think his thought process was “we’re playing really well here against a Prem team, we’re on top of the game and looking good. I know what I’ll do, I’ll purposely make us worse by taking off one of my best players and totally change the team shape” ?? 17 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took very basic levels of thought about the substitutions to understand why they were made, moreover YOU having an issue with a formation is a YOU problem and doesn't make it a valid reason to criticise without seeing how it plays out. You say no issue with Manning but almost every post you make that isn't digging into FFP is criticism of him, so stop the BS.
