    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Good points for sure, however I'd counter that both had the likes of Wanyama and Dier infront of them, as well as a system which was fixed and stable for their entire tenure. Romero and VdV have played for 2 different managers with 2 totally different styles. I would never play Danso over either...

    This is an enormous issue. Teachers (like a couple of other public sector jobs) are expected to be professionals in (as you say) mental health and social work. All for relative peanuts. It is pathetic. Something serious needs to be done, and for me, that would be to invest in a wave of fresh...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    I agree that when it comes to heading he is absolutely our best CB. Let's see how it pans out. As stated prior, Romero and VdV have won one trophy with us and are vital in so many aspects of how we play. The numbers suggest that if they manage to match or exceed the appearances Jan and Toby...

    What would YOUR priority signing be in the Jan transfer window?

    Those would be some additions. Osimhen would be outrageous, even if only for a season or two. A superb finisher and with such pace.

    2025 will become 2026, so yes indeed LOL

    What would YOUR priority signing be in the Jan transfer window?

    Understand the man's point (and the general point of wanting another LB)...it has zero to do with ability. Spence is a fine player. It is balance. A right-footed LB will always look inside, their body-shape is always looking inside, and it is far easier to squeeze a right-footed LB. Just see the...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    He is a fine penalty box defender -really good and really good at last ditch stuff- but comparing him to Ledley is exceedingly generous IMO. No-one could dispossess a player like Ledders, indeed, I barely remember him having to slide ever. Incredible timing.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Nothing to do with sucking any penises amigo. Do the work and look up the stats. Remember - I didn't say 'were' I said 'might be' as time and appearances continue. Add the fact that until this season Romero and VdV did not have a real 6 in front of them, and it stands further as a real...

    I am in agreement mate.

    Wilson Odobert

    I have been speaking about Odobert personally. Again, players are all different. There is nothing sure in football, but we can all speculate. Based on decades of watching, I will say that I do not think Odobert will be a regular starter for us in 12 months time, as I believe we will upgrade. My...

    Xavi Simons

    Absolutely! Which is vitally important. It also allows creatives to find pockets of space and make little movements/runs to receive and create in dangerous areas.

    I agree, it is becoming imperative.

    Cirkin's a good shout. Danish was always a fan.

    Xavi Simons

    Indeed he was really good. He did a tremendous amount of 'graft' work which allowed Xavi and Odobert to play closer and 'prettier'. Bentancur was also good last night.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    His partnership with Ven de Ven is incredible...I look back and we've had a few really excellent CB pairings. This might well be the best of them. I think they're better than Verts & Toby (it's a tough one but their creativity is insane for CBs)...

    Wilson Odobert

    I agree (albeit it is pretty clear the club disagree as Odobert is Frank's first choice right now on the left and we did not sign an upgrade - yet). And I think there's a difference between the players you've spotlit. Bergvall is clearly -clearly- destined for a top career if he avoids chronic...

    That, and exercise, are counter to how the world propels us. Convenience, not enough time, must work more, losing money, wasting time...it's all gonads really because you're right, even modifications in the direction of diet and exercise are huge. I had a similar wake-up call about 13 years...

    Wilson Odobert

    He has not yet shown the consistent instinct to push into spaces/attack/take people that his skillset suggests he could. At the moment he generally performs like a decent, functional player who is still trying to learn when to release, when to carry, when to attack the space, when to challenge...

    Destiny Udogie

    Absolutely. Djed is a fine FB and will get plenty of games if we rotate with Pedro and allow Pedro to rest more.

    Yet with a bit more purpose and front-foot intent, their press was there to be beaten. Massive spaces in midfield had we played faster. Unfortunately, when Romero doesnt start we lose a dimension, ditto Destiny.
