Enjoy!



Thanks, Rudy.

I bet you just loved that second goal in which our GK got the assist. :Winkything.

You've still got me all wrong. Just because I see the need for a team to be able to string a couple of passes together doesn't make me El Presidente de Republica de Tiki-Taka . I loved the utter cheek of Kodja going to the left side of the defender and getting the touch. Shocking defending but that's their problem not ours. Well done Kodja, I say. The kind of thing Brian Little used to do when he wasn't standing there on the half way line with his hands on his hips. Winkythingbackatyou.

To think when we signed him I said he was too right footed.

The 2nd goal reminded me of Cumbes/Lochhead I'm sure that someone can come up with the date/match.

Another good win and despite Norwich playing fairly well, I couldn't see them scoring. I thought Adomah had probably his best game for us and Kodjia should have had his first hat-trick. Fairly comfortable and enjoyable game all round really.

Kodjia's first was fluid and assured, as if its final destination had been decided the moment he received the ball. The second was clever and opportunist, the sign of a switched-on player. And still some people think he's lazy or selfish. Sometimes I don't think we quite realise what a gem we've got here. He could break all kinds of records for us.

I'd imagine (hope) that Kodjia's on a salary that only clubs whose sights are set higher up the food chain could improve upon.

I don't think any of the top six would want Kodjia. But if Lukaku leaves Everton, that's maybe where bids will come from, or perhaps Southampton/West Ham?

If we can keep Kodjia I'll be having a wad on winning this league next year, not just getting promoted.

I imagine it would require a very large bid for us to part with him and I can't see that.

I think the problem is that any kind of realistic bid of over £15m is going to unsettle him and at his age it's going to be difficult to tell him to be patient and wait for a promotion push next year.

I thought it was a good game today, a decent contest with chances at both ends. Our ball retention wasn't very good but our defence look like they can cope with anything at the moment.

Johnstone seems a lot more assured now. Two cracking finishes from Kodjia. A good assist and another decent chance from Hogan. Adomah was frustrating, so often did the difficult bit and then his final ball or touch let him down.

I don't really care where we finish now. I'm just enjoying us winning again.
I agree with all of this but I am not paying to read it.

Does anybody have a clue what the entrance music today was? Due to the crappy PA system all I could here was the word 'closer' being repeated.

Connor Hourihane music.

I am just made up a few results coming in

Kodjia is a scorer of some real great goals, him and Hogan are going to take this division to the cleaners next season. An upgrade on Jedinak, someone who can pass the ball well as well as break things up. Baring in mind this is like a pre season for us with new manager, new midfield, new forward parternship and new philosophy I think we are going pretty well right now. The performances aren't the best but we just don't look like giving goals away right no and that's most of the battle in this division. Keep it tight, compete physically for 90 minutes and let our quality up front tell in the end. Sounds like a Bruce blueprint to promotion again coming together.

Very happy to be winning a few again.

We're in the habit of winning games which is a great habit. Still lots of work to be done though. I'm really disappointed in Lansbury. I don't know what he brings to the team apart from averageness.
