Is it me, or does it look like Jedniak struggles to run. He looks like someone trying to run after just completing a marathon having done no training.

Not that he didn't play as well as everyone else in the second half, it just amuses me watching him try to run.

No-I've noticed this as well (it worked in our favour last week when the rest of the team ran to our fans after the goal haha)

It is why he cannot play in a 2 man midfield as RDM attempted.  He is simply not mobile enough.

It's all very well you all going on about the win and being the only Championship team unbeaten at home but don't you realise the Blose really deserved to win last Sunday.
But they didn't. Wolves deserved to win but they didn't and that the difference. Getting results when they aren't deserved is better than throwing away points in the last few minutes. It shows more fight and determination is in the team now.

I said the same thing to my son at the game. Fortunately he reads the game well so manages to be in the right place the majority of the time. Lovely ball for the goal too.

I like Adomah. I notice he ran back with the ball to the centre spot after the penalty.

Were there really people booing Westwood whilst Agbonlahor was cheeed at the substitutions?
For all his limitations Westwood hasn't taken the piss out of the football club and if he's low on confidence that's hardly going to help. I hope that come January a club are foolish enough to take Agbonlahor off our hands, can't believe he has been welcomed back so readily by some.

I didn't hear anything from the DE.  The crowd were focusing on giving Kodjia the ovation that he deserved.

I didn't notice the boos for Westwood but I agree with you on the Agbonlahor thing...I just don't get it

It was more collective grumbling than booing I would say

I think Agbonlahor's Blues baiting makes a certain element of our fan base elevate him to hero status more than his playing ability does. I'm clutching at straws here - I have no idea why some still think he is worthy of any ovation, standing or otherwise.

I've not read the rest of this thread so excuse me for asking, but did we miss Ayew?

Not massively. We won, and Kodjia and Adomah bring more to the team anyway.

Me too. Kept trying to be involved when he could barely move at the end. Would have been an easy move for him to just walk off and let us play with ten.

I was up the Holte and there was definitely booing when Westwoods name was announced. Fucking moronic bunch of pricks.

Agree, surely six managers can't all be wrong?
