ZacNaloen Drenthe may well not be able to play 90 minutes for some weeks yet. But that doesn't mean he's a.s on the pitch.


Adkins is qualified Physio I think I trust him over an exciteable Dutchman when it comes to issues of fitness and readiness.

So was Josef Mengele

when Swansea came to the Mad Stad last season I found their style very dull to watch. It did feel like possession for possessions stake to me at times and similar to what Adkins has been trying to instill in our team this year. Even Arsenal have struggled in recent seasons to break down well organi...

Mambo3 = Paddy20 Pretty sure the last six posts have just been the same person talking to themselves. Ha ha no just on the same intelligence level ( duck) Sorry I forgot, I shudnt agree with anyone. Adkins system is really the right way to look at things if he was Manager of Barcelona, PSG, Bayern,...

It occurs to me that perhaps Adkins is behind the times when it comes to possession football. Lots of statistics say the more possession you have the more points you get. But surely the quality of possession is important and hard to quantify. Generally the quality of the play and players will resul...

If you don't work hard in training you don't play

Arnie_Pie He was always going to turn out good once he got his head down and got on with it. Let's be fair, he is far too good for us and this league.

It helps if you are guaranteed first team football regardless

We'll never know. My personal opinion/gut feeling is that this is not the squad Adkins wanted, and that our playing style has suffered as we have adjusted to the demands of the Championship without the personnel the gaffer would like to have seen in place. I just have a funny feeling this isn't goi...

We will win the league. pog will score 15 goals this season and move to Spain for 15million. NA will be championship Manager of the Year and write a best seller called build, evolve, succeed. NH will be head hunted by Top Premiership side.

What are you smoking?

Nice to see where your priorities lie.

We could play a strong side, or we could change lots of stuff. I know which I'd choose.

Define Strong Side?

It's not Antons fault. The manager has 30 players to choose from. We are not Man City's money. Do what West Ham and Southampton do, bring on youth players into 1st team and sell them at he right time. Buying players AS we have being doing will only cover the cracks, major surgery is necessary.

What's the point of an academy if we pay are way back to the premiership.

Gunter is a liability and has been a great disappointment since he joined us. He had a slightly better game today but still seemed to play without any self- confidence (playing for Wales probably doesn't help!). I had to agree with the fella next to me today when he said we will never succeed with ...

Platypuss Get Drenthe out of the first team until he can lose a stone.

I thought you had to meet a certain fitness level to play for the 1st Team
