Angus Kinnear interview on the square ball yesterday well worth a listen. Came across very well imo a cleared a lot of stuff up whilst admitting they didn’t get everything right. Interesting views on PSR and how it’s not working and it only protects the established Premier League clubs.. new rules coming in making it even stricter which is not good news. Wants it changed and says there’s many other clubs outside top 6 want it too

I've just listened to it. really interesting. the top 6 are basically creating a market that blocks out everybody but them

Yep. It's madness.

Oh well when the top 6 clubs all feck off to the super duper European League it might leave the rest of us on more of an even keel.

Kinnear was very scathing, he said the PL clubs jump for joy when the 3 promoted clubs get relegated each year.. the task of getting promoted and staying in the prem gets harder and harder and the new regs won't change that.

Interesting on the Hamer bid too, sounds like Hamer's agent told Leeds Sheff U current owners were open to accepting an offer (which would also mean he wanted to come too). I think Wilder threw his teddies out majorly and the retracted from that position quickly.

Same old same old. Wingers don’t create anything we’ve nothing in midfield. Need to drop Gruev for Tanaka. Ampadu was really poor on the ball. Gnonto and Joseph missed 2 sitters. Totally dominated but not enough created. Subs made too late for them to get into the game. Bloody frustrating and we don’t look like auto promotion contenders as it stands. We always seem to slip up after international breaks too

From the off Meslier putting the ball directly into touch, Joseph missing a sitter and Gnonto shooting straight at Trafford a keeper we should have signed 2 years ago.
Unlucky slip by Solomon but Bogle should have covered and Meslier should/could have done better.
Ampadu I felt needing subbing 15 minutes into the second half.
I still don`t think Gnonto is a winger and should play 10, midfield non existent and our centre halves along with Meslier look shaky to me.
My Sheff United Arsenal double looks more promising than us getting automatic promotion, play offs at best unless we get Hamer in January.

difficult when half the team don't even train after the international break.i was on a flight so missed the game so can't comment. Big few weeks coming up though

It was always going to be difficult with so many players on international duty. Burnley came with a plan to sit back and wait for their chance and it worked for them, but we really should have won. We had 2 big chances in the first half and should have had a penalty, definitely not a bad performance, but if you don't take your chances, it doesn't matter how you play.

Saw the first 30 mins and then listened to the rest while travelling. Based on the 30mins I saw, we are still a team that lacks pace offensively. We are also lacking someone carrying the ball forwards through the heart of midfield. If Ao is ready he needs game time and maybe the answer. Is it Farke’s decision to play inverted wingers ? If it is it may seem very fashionable but can kill any momentum with the player constantly checking back inside. Solomon was a prime example yesterday, checking back inside and then playing tippy tappy with Firpo, Aaronson etc instead of getting down the line. He doesn’t look overly fast neither. Early days, but we don’t want last seasons problems manifesting themselves with a different set of players.
