That sides makes me realise how much we really need a centre back and a left back.

De Laet looks like a different player this pre season (and yes I know it's pre season)

Still not convinced we've got the right personnel  for 352 - especially sown the left

Kodjia needed fitness and confidence to get himself going again. And slowly he's starting to get back to form.

Happy with the goal but that's pretty much the most experienced team he could make, do people still think there's a chance he'll change his spots and pick the kids?

This is pretty turgid stuff

Vs Walsall 352 looked like it made us really move the ball wel

Today the extra bite from the oppo shows up the weaknesses of some of our players and lack of pattern of play

Lansbury really needs to start doing more

Kodjia and adomah are a threat but my god they're going to frustrate me if they play upfront this season

Taylor is as fucking woeful as ever.
Green will never live up to his hype.

The left hand side needs completely revamping.
