@benwarny21@jakerai76 I think that’s the problem though - ‘if fit’ - the way he plays when he’s firing, he’s so explosive and powerful, but also so injury-prone. In pre-season he’s played like he’s worried about getting injured
@KP24 Maybe but his opinion on what he thinks is best for the England test team heading into the summer is completely valid. Out of interest, would you disagree so vehemently and disrespectfully if Root or Stokes expressed a similar view, or is it just a grudge rearing its ugly head?
@louorns Not surprised to see the majority with Jude but had you asked the same question in Jan, the results would have been quite different I think. I’ve given credit to TT for picking players based on form and not reputation. But now - has to be Jude
@louorns I hold onto the hope that we’ll see another performance like Hull, but find our shooting boots. Assuming Mfuni is playing LB I can see both FBs having an impact going forward, combined with the extra defensive stability you’ve implied there. U ‘Orns!!!!
@qasimshahbaz49@piersmorgan@PhilMickelson Totally agree. Mickelson at 50 was great but due to the physical/insane fitness levels required in tennis, not comparable. Having said that, Tom Watson winning the Open at Turnberry in 2009, aged 59, would have incredible (appreciate he lost in the play-off!)
@louorns Hi Luke, what do you think would have been a better game plan? Agree it was awful although second half less awful. Thought Maamma struggled today, he’s such a talent but still raw. I would have brought Irankunda or Baah on at half time.
@louorns Louza and Pollock immense, Giorgi still a tad rusty but showing signs of re-discovering his levels from last season - plus he scares the life of out defenders. Great win
@Watford_Douglas@louorns Fair, with hindsight although looking at these stills, I don’t think he had a choice. Pollock was in no-man’s land and Keben was all over the place. Anyway I’m no expert and at the end of it, the second half was much better and we won!
@Watford_Douglas@louorns It’s interesting, never seen a Watford player divide opinion so much - especially as of course, we all want him to do well. You’re right on him being at fault for a number of goals but I also think the back four defends as a unit and we need more solidity and consistency there
@louorns The half-time sub was a no brainer, as well as Alleyne’s composure on the ball, thought Pollock looked so more more comfortable on the right. Ngakia was great and aside from a couple of weak attempts at tackles, Kayembe put himself about much better. Another 3 pts on Tues please!
@louorns Pretty much the same. I really like Vata, think he should be getting more game time, but could only be accommdated by keeping Baah on the bench. I’ve only been to one game this season, Southampton and the second half was so good
