I first noticed Rico Henry at Walsall and impressed me.
One has pace,athletic and wants to join in all attacking play.
What do we have Eric fucking Pieters plodding about.

I used to like Pieters but its wound me for a good while now that his right leg is really just for standing on. As a dutch former international footballer I would expect better of his weaker foot. |

We could do a lot worse then buying a large chunk of that Brentford team.
As they’ll all be up for sale.
I’d sell Butland and allen, and go and get any from the following
Bentley
Barbet
Henry
Mepham
Sawyers
Watkins
Maupay
And the lad who scored the second.

Was at work yesterday so only got chance to listen to the game on the radio....
Henry's name was constantly getting mentioned in the match commentary!!!
I remember thinking we need to get to grips with this lad!!!

I'm happy for any of our squad to leave. In fact, apart from butland, I'd be absolutely delighted to see them all disappear, pieters included. |

Obviously if we don’t sell jack we don’t need Bentley etc. |

I like Pieters a lot, if we played with wingers he'd still do a job but our only width in this formation will come through our fullbacks and while I think Bauer could be perfect, Pieters is so far from fitting the bill.
I'd still lash him on at centre half for a cup game and see what happens though.

When things aren't going well, and you're desperate for points.....just look at the fixture list and scroll down til it says "STOKE"!!! |

Aye but mainly because we needed fullbacks who could do the work of the non existent centre halves, if we had semi competent central defenders he'd do just fine. |

On the evidence of yesterday, I doubt a single member of our squad would make the Brentford team. We were outclassed, outfought and outmuscled in every department. We made them look like Barcelona. |

Poor Erik.
There's many problems with the squad and balance but Erik is not top of the list.
He's always one of the first to be dug out though for some reason.

I think it was a bit unfair he got dropped...he was often caught out of position but I felt it was because he tried to bomb down the wings and start an attack and sometimes got caught out. He’d always do his damndest to get back though. And the rest of our defence is always our position and I don’t see what excuse they have! |

Poor Erik. There's many problems with the squad and balance but Erik is not top of the list. He's always one of the first to be dug out though for some reason. I think it's because he is full of errors and doesn't stand out amongst the dross. People keep saying "this player isn't so much the problem, that player isn't the problem, we have others..." But in reality, they are all performing equally as bad. Every game collective errors loose us a goal, and then and 1 from about 8 players make individual errors that cost us another... It's as if we want the opposition to score!? The defence, all of them, are the issue. Yes CB is non existent, but the lb and rb whoever plays add absolutely nothing to the attacking play and then we are just hoping they don't let the opposition have a free run, which happens almost every game (see about 15-20 occasions this season, including against Brentford, where I'm convinced I would have done better than either eddy or eric... |

New manager with new ideas can disrupt that. They've got one of the best group of young players in the league. |

Let’s not forget they’d won something like 1 in 10 before we strolled into town. They had a change of manager - an unusual one as they are not many Danes about - he had new ideas, and it took a while for Brentford players to adapt. They now have. With any luck they could be us, 10 games down the road. Though the season then will be almost over. |

Lee Sandford would walk into our defence at the minute, and would of give the other defender's a kick up the arse they needed

Jones needs to stamp his authority,by getting rid of our big name players who are past it and players who are just not good enough.
Shawcross.
Pieters.
Adam.
Fletcher.
Crouch.
Diouf.
Williams.
Martina.
McClean.
Give players like Bojan,Afobe and Berahino a run of games in their best positions,if they don't produce the goods then get rid of them in the summer.
