I've barely got the energy to write this but it's the Cup...we'll inevitably not try very hard, but it's a somewhat welcome distraction.

They have a striker we were interested in...Richard Kone...who no doubt will upstage the 50m we have just spent.

Predicted Lineup:

T-Rex

KWP  Kilman   Mayers   Igor

Rodriguez  Magassa

Bowen   Taty    Sumerville

Pablo

Subs:  Areola, Scarles, Mavropanos, Potts, Irving, Paqueta, Soucek, Ajala, Landers.

Predicted Score: 1-1 (lose on pens)

Fucks sake

This is the phase of the game where Potts needs to step up. The match is passing him by at the moment.

He’s young, but if he wants to step up, these are the phases where you have to impose yourself and dominate. It needn’t be physical, could be his passing/vision/work rate. But we need more from him in these moments.

If he sorts that, we have a player.

Here we go....

[BoleynGone]

Hermansen is giving me the gitters,can't keep hold of the ball even from a weak shot.

[threesixty]

Not seen us with a front 2 before. It looks like a 4-4-2 out there at the moment.
Strange.

[Jasnik]

To me it is magassa who is giving the ball away not Potts but at least he is putting himself about a bit

 

Both will learn and kick on...Magassa doesn't even have 50 first team games under his belt. Potts did well at Wycombe and Pompey but it's his first season as a regular starter with us 

Agreed

[Keep dreaming]

Fucking hell, how shit our players are.
No ability whatsoever. Wank and slow

[claypole]

If Magassa can speed up his thought process  he could be a decent asset

[Jasnik]

Agreed

[Ron Eff]

Magassa has been way off it for his last 3 or 4 games. Assist today notwithstanding. 

[Jasnik]

Can see why Killman rarely gets injured he bottles everything.

Modern football bollocks a nasty over the ball tackle considered worthy of the same punishment as a shoulder barge!

[threesixty]

I disagree with most on here, i think summerville is quality and premier level - but those months out injured have been a disaster, and once he scored - more would follow. A nice goal. Surely we can see this game out?



 

 

 

I really hope so. I just see the same issues I did with Benhrama. They didn’t adapt their game enough for the better league. Expected the same extra milliseconds, the same shitty keepers and defenders etc. PL is utter ruthless. Some of the best players in the world get humbled here. U really need to make the effort to upgrade your game. 

[cup of tea]

This is a hard watch. Im hoping we just see this out as I don't fancy watching another 30 mins and potentially pens, ive got better things to do like eat spaghetti bolognese

But he hasn’t scored in the Premier League. This is the cup - against a Championship side.

He hasn’t scored in the Premier League for almost a year. And he has just one PL goal. He hasn’t exactly proved himself yet.

[Keep dreaming]

That's what we have been saying for some time now Southbank, we have a majority of championship players.

Funny enough, our board thought this was guaranteed European football

Magassa is also at home at this level. He’s winning tackles, breaking opposition lines and maintaining s good tempo today. Another who will be a Championship asset, but who needs to show himself at the highest level.

These younger lads look capable - the trouble is you need at least 150 games under yer belt before the potential starts to shine through. It's a catch 22 situation.

[Mike Oxsaw]

Pour yourself a pint now! This is as close as we'll ever get to the next round.

[southbankbornnbred]

Summerville clearly at home at this level.

He is all over this right back. He’ll be a big asset in the Championship if he stays.

Tough, of course, but he’s got to step up in the Premier League.

[Keep dreaming]

Who would have thought we got a bit more offensive with a defender less. Now we need Kilman to get his head knocked properly
