    yeah, just saw the video, didnt look like much, but the ones that dont look like much can be pretty bad. Such is the case. I mean, yeah, there was impact, but it didnt LOOK like broken neck stuff. Ive seen worse, but again, you never know.

    Eh, frankly they've looked better with the Scott/Christie combo than with Tyler (who's been in the squad and available the past few weeks) in the starting lineup (1.67 ppm in 15 matches he didn't start v 1.28 ppm in 18 matches he started). But regardless, the point stands that for a variety of reasons he's not a "have to" sell player as asserted by the poster I was replying to.

    And with that 3-0 win, haji and Coventry are league champions!

    west brom 3-0 win today ensures survival for Campbell and dike..........unless that point deduction happens. In that case they still gotta work.

    In the coaching domain, Hurzueler is having a hell of a resurgence with Brighton, just beat Chelsea 3-0 to jump them in the European spots.

    Not that he’s a bad manager but the secret sauce with Brighton is their owner. He’s got some super secretive algorithm he used to get rich via gambling that he also uses to identify coaches and players that is the real source of the team’s success.

    Brentford’s owner has a similar background and they are very moneyball in their approach yes. Bournemouth I know less about.

    Man now that I think about it I would have absolutely loved to have seen the scientific research of a healthy Dike and Big Pat up too for us in a 442. The absolute mayhem for the center backs….…… would be like a safety knowing they have to tackle peak Eddie lacy and marshawn lynch

    Its nuts to think we would ever play a 4-4-2 with the likes of Dike and Big Pat up top. Two big guys? Sure. Scare a WC backline? Not hardly.

    I’m at 68:00 of the Leeds-Bournemouth match.

    Adams didn’t start.

    Aaronson is the epitome of competent in possession; no bad plays, and except for one sweet mazy run, nothing exceptional on the positive side either. He IS decisive and clean on the half turn.

    Defensively and work rate wise he’s terrific. On the Leeds goal, he played a role in creating chaos in the box.

    I’ve liked his game so far. Not enough to start him over Puli or Wes, but enough to not be nervous of Poch rotates and gives him a start in the middle match.

    Adams in about 70. Aaronson out about 83. A couple minutes later Adams drives a ball into the box which is finished.

    Leeds scored very late to get the draw.

    Forst half was pretty dull but the second half was alot of fun.

    Morris(CM in 4231) and Bro get the 1-0 win over Sheffield Wed to remain in contention for 2nd place. Whatever happens hopefully, he moves up a league level.

    exactly. They still think they’re too big a club for Weston, laughter worthy. Roll on the floor laughter worthy.

    Morris is a player I definitely think should be on the WC roster. I understand that Poch gets to make the decision.
