Great performance

The way im looking at it at the minute is let Fleming compete and play foster in the channels with him - it doesn?’t matter about who plays wide if they?’re not contributing anyway - get the ball up ( Dyche like maybe ) and we?’ll build from their third

I like the idea of this, Foster runs his socks off and is a much better finisher than Anthony. Would help Flemming out and be another target for Hartman.

I don't know why SP is pissed off, he picks the team. It was obvious imo that Anthony and Larsen were not fast or clever enough to beat PL wing backs. Many have said Hannibal should always be starting and I think Foster should too. As I have said before why is it always better to play the ball square or backwards to keep possession rather than towards a player who has to fight for possession but in a more dangerous area. It is not a game of perfect. Lots of goals are scored from deflections.

Take the hand brake off and let the lads play. I believe they are good enough. Believe#

The problem on here mnhrt is it’s just all our opinions in the real world it’s Parker’s decisions as you rightly say.

The question is - is he disappointed because the players didnt deliver what he asked of them or is it because he gotbot wrong and he’s annoyed at himself.

They are all only our opinions and none of us have Uefa A coaching badges as far as im aware anyway so we cant argue the facts.

It is frustrating though as I like you and many others know we have players starting who shouldn’t be in our opinion

We’ll be a better side with Hannibal and foster starting is all I know.

Ballcock s idea isn’t bad tbh but I think I’d like foster up top with Fleming especially against teams around us and let’s make them uncomfortable instead of us.

Another thing I find puzzling. Flemming hit a rocket against Norwich last season, Tchoua?? likewise against Leeds. I don't think I've seen any shot resembling those shots from either player since. Why not? Surely it's an option worth trying now and then, as opposed to trying to get through 10 man defence packed into the penalty area.

For me anyway loum should nt have been dropped after the Leeds game - he came on was willing to go at them and scored a worldy - parker in his wisdom though dropped him again to the bench ( imagine his thoughts at that ).
Anthony as I’ve said numerous times is way too comfortable and gets selected ( i believe ) regardless of his contribution - interestingly it would be a good exercise to see how much - many times Anthony - and Larsen have offered wide to go past a man in the last 6 games - I haven’t counted but I think from what I watch it won’t be many.

So I don’t know if they’re told to stay in a defensive structure or if they’re in capable or not quick enough to worry full backs etc - but if it’s not very many we’re carrying players again at the highest level of football.

I also say that Anthony and JBL are good players but are we getting what’s required is the question.

Anthony had a great start to the season but maybe could do with a rest from the starting line up. Foster and Flemming to start together?
