Agree with Coventry and Ipswich. It's mad to think that even if Coventry only score 1 goal in the next 6 games, they'll still have scored at the same rate as we did last season. I have this feeling that Wilder will still get Sheff U in the play-offs despite their awful start.

Semenyo at Bournemouth and a guy called Morgan Rogers at Villa too! People seem to pigeon-hole Championship players without recognising that they can improve.

Just finished reading Jonathan Wilson's new history of the World Cup. The levels of FIFA corruption he outlines is breathtaking.

I don't think his record is that good. Yes, he had a couple of good seasons at Leicester, but was in charge for most of the season they went down too. He also didn't win a single trophy in 3 seasons at Liverpool. Also appears to have an ego the size of a house #LUFC

I'm not sure we have the finance to change things in January, even if we trust ed the owners to identify the right players.

Farke's faith in BA is baffling, however Emery doesn't have to choose between two free transfer Centre forwards every week.

You really think any manager in the PL would have made those 3 changes at 1-0 up? No way.

a) where's the money coming from? b) what player of quality will sign for a promoted club if it's in the relegation zone. We've missed the boat.

There are players who have been pigeon-holed as Championship players who have made the step up- look at Semenyo's record in the Championship for example. Players can improve you know.

No chance. No team has been relegated with even 40 points in the last 23years. 36 points will be enough.
