Smalling and Jones make mistakes. Piquet and Ramos make mistakes. Maguire and Van Dijk make mistakes. Of course Charles and Robinson made mistakes but in IMO they are the best centre backs who have played for us (at their peak).

 Tudor - we have only been ahead on expected goals in a game once this season. Is that because we are getting into the box and not shooting (Folivi) or are we actually just fooling ourselves

 If only it was as easy as that, Spit...

 So today, Bury get an extension of time, Bolton have the weekend off and we sign Sunderland free agent Glenn Loovens

 The previous manager lacked goals and excitement. Wally needs to give the fans some or fall the same way.hope he realises before its too late.

 We should work on increasing our expected goals stats first, before we start all this "holding onto a lead" nonsense.

 None of our centre backs have been the finished article and all have made mistakes. Robbo and Darius made plenty of mistakes...

 Why would we want to only concentrate on one area when all aspects of our play need to be improved? We have a coaching team, I imagine they must be able to handle more than one area of training between them.

 Windie Kalambayi has promise but isn’t the finished article. Nightingale still makes mistakes at this level, Thomas and McDonald are both too inconsistent and NGW hasn’t even played conference national level til now. Only O’Neill is really a known entity at this level. Hence I’d still argue defence is lower L1 and L2 level mix, at best. We have a good future there (maybe) but that isn’t 1-2 years away still. And I’d rate the defence as the best unit in the squad.

 Wordsworth and Nightingale walk into the team. The problem isn’t who they replace but which of the many you’d have the, ahead of.

 A madman that figures 1 draw from 5 games means we aint got much to lose!

 TBH I wouldn't put Wordsworth in the side at all. What kind of madman would put a player coming back from injury with no match practice straight in the side away to Sunderland?

 I'd put Wordsworth in for Wagstaff. West Ham game excepted, I'm not sure I've ever left a game thinking that Wagstaff played well. Still not really sure what his strengths are.

 Canadians don't get football

 the phantom raspberry blower

 I like it when we kick or head the ball at the opposition goal and it goes in. Almost as much as when we kick or head the ball away when it's heading towards our goal. I reckon we should try more of that stuff.

 Wordsworth for Hartigan or waggy,.or replace both,put Rudoni in too

 Blows raspberry at pd :}

 Ball Boy Don must be the youngest.

 if we are into ageism today I would like to join the oldies and more sensible posters as I was born in wimbledon in 1942

 I would keep faith with 352 a bit longer. It served us well last year and we benitted greatly from a settled formation imo. Wordy in for Wagstaff is probably the best and Will for McDonald. Real question is probably who Wally will play as the two forwards out of Kwesi, Piggott & Folivi

 congratulations, Alice on your anniversary next week. I say this now because I will probably have forgotten by next week.

 OI - Only a year or so more ancient than your good self. Mere spring chickens, the pair of us.

 At home at least I'd keep the 352 which is pretty much the only formation I think we can play, and drop Wagstaff and Hartigan, and play Folivi as a CAM behind probably Kwesi/Joe given Roscrow is dead.

 Will go straight in replacing Wagstaff
