Eustaquio injured his shoulder playing the US last night ..

Tough game Saturday, I know Norwich have shipped a ton of goals so far this season but they have players that can hurt you hence why they’ve scored a ton of goals as well. Toure is out for them but I like Makama who I think will replace him. They’ve had a number of withdrawals over the...

I'm sure everyone is bored out of their minds watching the Internationals so circulating back on this thread, anyone's pre-season predictions changed 8 games in?

He traveled with the squad to Lincoln but wasn't in the matchday squad. I was at Lincoln and I saw him with training gear on clapping the fans at the end. Like you, I don't expect him to be starting games as he needs to adapt to the style and way of playing under Matos but I expected him to be...

Fair play to Lincoln, I knew they were direct but underestimated how direct they’d actually be. Long throw ins from the half way line! First half was poor, slow on the ball, taking 4/5 touches before passing it back and we couldn’t compete physically. Thought Just was the only one to come out...

This will be a tough test, long balls from every direction into our box so we need to be up for the physical challenge in order to compete. Hope Matos doesn't go to 'physical' in terms of team selection as you can then get drawn into their way of playing. They'll have a fairly low block so we'll...

Find it strange that Monga isn’t making the bench today. Do we need Parente, Seelt and Lissah all on there? We haven’t exactly been great with PL loans in the past, Yalcouye being a good example last year where he should have had more starts for me

Hope Matos goes with: Vigs, Key, Fil, Welsh, Tymo, Stam, Just, Eustaquio, Opoku, Idah, Yeo You could debate Widell/Just. I know Just hasn't pulled up any trees but he's only going to get up to speed with the pace of this level by playing games. Franco won't be rushed in but would expect him on...

Can we put the debate to bed that Lissah is a RB? I know he was up against arguably the best winger in the league but he’s a centre half, plain and simple. I’m not going to overreact to one loss. From an attacking perspective, we built up ok in parts and got through to the final third well but...

On paper, the toughest game yet although my mate is a Saints fan and he said their performances have been quite average this season and the new signings aside from Larin haven't clicked yet. I think Matos will go with this - Vigs, Lissah, Ben, Welsh, Tymo, Jay, Stam, Just, Eom, Vipi, Opoku.

Yeah I think we can roughly guess 8/9 of those to start on Tuesday. Franco may make the bench aswell is what I’ve heard. Think Cabango will start with Fil at right back, I thought there was a little bit of chaos when Ben came on last night, we just lacked composure building up once again. I...

Anyone else thought Eustaquio had done his ACL when the physios sprinted on 😂😂 thought he was good again tonight. I do wonder whether in games like tonight Matos could stick him as the single pivot? Jay didn’t do anything wrong but when your pivot has no pressure on him and time on the ball to...

Frustrating one, carbon copy of the Sheffield game - unable to break down low block. A point isn’t the end of the world but more and more sides will employ the same tactic so we’ll need answers to it soon. Felt like the subs didn’t impact the game as we’d hoped, thought Vipi looked a little...

The rationale behind playing Key is that I don’t think he’ll have an opposite winger to deal with, his main threat will be the wing back runs which eases what he has to do defensively. Therefore he’ll have space to eat up the ground with his pace. I’m not his biggest fan don’t get me wrong but...

The only possible change is bringing in Ben to cope with Kieffer but the more I think about it, the more we’re then thinking too much about the opposition and not what made us play so well the last previous 2 games. I’d go unchanged, definitely no need to play Stam and Jay in the midfield at...

Yeah, think from memory he has 1 year left + club have option of another year but should be the priority. Eom has 2 years left I think so if he continues to perform like Son Min Heung, they'll have to tie him down When I was leaving the ground yesterday, one of the fans mentioned if we play...

That was good wasn’t it? That 1st half reminded me of WBA at home under Laudrup for those who can remember that.

The one caveat of being in a location out of reach from any other club

West Ham have put the Wout Faes deal on hold, not sure if its linked to a bid for Ben or not.

Tricky with Cabango, leads by example and is captain of the club, suits Championship football down to a tee but has he reached his ceiling and is he going to elevate us to a promotion chasing team in his position?
