Bayern you have made your point do not need to reiterate it umpteen times Of course he does. Bayern's unique selling point is that he doesn't just make his point, he likes to make the same point dozens of times on the same thread. He takes pride in the fact that there are multi page threads on this board where 30% or more of the posts are by him. He enjoys people disagreeing with him. If 50 people post that they disagree with him then that gives him 50 chances to type another post defending himself - its a sort of multiple posting orgasm!

Yes. We need a new back 6 so GK RB CB CB LB DM 2 down and I expect 2 more in. So you’d bring a keeper, giving us four on our books? Nobody is coming for Jack. Davies has conceded 2 goals in 4 games, give it a rest Just remember, Jack conceded 10 in his previous 4 games with 5 in his last!

Bayern is the oatcake equivalent of the wasp. Irritating, incessant and hard to pin down. And even when you think you’ve killed the fecker it can still sting you. PS for all that he does contribute a lot to the board. Not all of it bad!

I think the responses on Twitter tell you all you need to know and judging by this thread also I’d have a few days off if I were you 😂😂they do. That Jordan Thompson is a bag of shite. So you totally disagree with O'Neill who picked those two players out as the only two to have had decent games?

I’ve watched the game thanks to Rob and Thompson was awol like the rest of the midfield. He only praised him because he signed him. Which is quite pathetic from the manager.

He was only praising Thompson because he signed him. I agree that there is some of that but I also think he has proved to be more honest in his assessment of games than previous managers. We don't know what Thomson's brief was. Perhaps he carried it out better than others did theirs. Although I didn't see the game yesterday (I wasn't going to waste £10 having watched the Burton game) I find it bazaar and perhaps prejudicial that you pick these two players out for criticism. From the highlights I would say central defence particularly BMI were worse. It seemed once our midfield was breached our defence looked like it was built of straw.

I've watched a bit of the game thanks to the replay in the thread below MacLean and Bruno were unconnected in the first half,their speedy right winger ran riot Second half that was sorted out. Thompson pinged several good balls but didn't prevent their players attacking our defence whereas Powell had a stinker, everything he did was off. Davies didn't have much to do as Blackpool's finishing was terrible. So of course was ours, definitely had the better chances, could easily have scored 4 or 5

My prediction:
we’ll go into the season with Davies 1 and Butland 2. Davies will do ok for a bit, people on here will jizz about how amazing he is. Cracks will start to appear and he’ll make a howler or two. He’ll get dropped, Butland will come back in, he’ll be not quite so terrible as he normally is and people on here will jizz about how he’s rejuvenated and refreshed and this could be his chance to get back to his best. Cracks will start to appear and he’ll make a howler or two. He’ll get dropped, Davies will come back in and............
What we really need is to sign a good #1 goalie. Preferably with a good bit of experience. Easier said than done I know.

I'm with Bayern on his criticism of Thompson, apart from his set plays he's really poor and shouldn't get a game once Mikel is fit.

Again hopefully he can improve with us.

It’s hard to see why we signed him? He's miles better than Cousins at passing,touch, control all better Cousins is miles better as a defensive midfielder Thompson needs to play with a defensive midfielder not as one

I know you're not asking me but Thompson played two decentish passes and stole the ball once before being fouled other than that he did nothing, O'Neill has very low expectations if he thought that was classed as a decent game.

He was only praising Thompson because he signed him. Maybe so. Praise in public, chastise in private. Basic motivation strategy. The opposite rarely results in improvement. You might as well say “the beatings will stop when your performance improves”. I don’t know many people that would respond positively to that. I know I wouldn’t.

Thompson is a squad player nothing more. He won't be starting most games so its a pointless dig. Would I like players who id call definate starters amongst the bench ? yes but thats not the world we live in or can afford to live in right now with big earners still needing to move on with a massive squad.
TOB will be fighting with Powell for a place, Cousins with Mikel.
Clucas, Allen will more or less pick themselves.
Will he be needed at times yes but he will likely play less minutes than all those above.

He’s about 12 months behind from where he should be down to club incompetence but still better than Thompson imo with much less football under his belt.

And just for reference.
Sorensen is 20, Thompson 23
Sorensen has 8 pro games under his belt. Thompson 140 and 7 full caps.
And there’s a gnat’s cock between them.
