Just wait for the excuses about the standard of the league etc....

No idea why people need to constantly find fault.

Unfortunately its not difficult to find fault in this disappointing season in which our most expensive recent signing has contributed very little.

Eom was poor this season until Matos took over the reins. Decent latter part of last season but didn’t follow that up at the start of this one.
Under Matos he looks to have regained his confidence and had a fine game yesterday.

He was injured at the start of this season, it's obviously taken him a bit of time to get up to speed again but has been excellent these past few weeks.

Eom has vastly upped his performances since Matos joined

Let's hope he runs around with more enthusiasm when he's back from injury, after all that's a sign of a really good player.

Its a bare minimum so yes let's hope he starts with that.

For me he had a good end to the season under Sheehan ,
First season looked as if he could play as a 10 .
He was too lightweight for the role
This season looks more comfortable with the physicality of the Championship.

Let's hope so, you can target someone else then.

Stoke allegedly chasing Rak-Sakyi and he has supposedly been offered to Sheffield Utd also allegedly.

If someone deserves it i will. I wont pretend everything is dandy when its not.

Thank God we've got fans like yourself

Absolutely, you seem like the type who'd have told us all was well and fluffy during Pettys time or when the trust was screwed over.

Luckily we do have fans who say it as it is.

We don't even play with a 10 and it is a dying breed in modern football because it's basically impossible to play.

People want a 10 who can dribble, have an eye for a pass, do well in tight situations and produce consistent output but then also want them to be able to compete with physically and intensity of holding midfielders? Unless people know of another De Bruyne lying about there's not anybody who can do that role.

Its why teams are now transitioning to either Second Strikers or Box crashing 8s.

Lucky or tedious, a bit like this conversation.

Prob should fuck him off to
Be honest. Tried for him twice and looks like he's said no twice

Agreed.

His enthusiasm stats aren't looking great if he's said no, twice.
