Kodjia never makes a run in the box does he

I’m more and more convinced now that Kodjia is spent. From looking like a £30m player to someone who might not even be £3m.

I know most people liked the look of the team sheet but my big fear was Jedinak at CB.  He just isn't one.  Elphick may be iffy there but I think even he is less of a liability than Jedinak there.

If Axl is a Centre half, why not play him there?

Can ya just go and get JT back? We're gonna be exposed at CB all year, ridiculous that it wasn't addressed over the summer.

I'd be bringing the Russian on for the second half to worry their defence. Kodjia looks awful. Regardless we should be beating these cloggers, they're absolute shit.

Not so sure to be honest.  Wigan are no mugs and keep finding spaces in our defence and we look powder puff up front. We definitely need more loans

That’s not the first shit backpass by Jedinak today. When RDL is back next week get him in at RB and Axel to CB.

Agreed but Elmo has been known to play right back every now and then. There's no need for this bollocks.

Jedinak and Kodjia are poor, Nyland looks nervous
the ref is shockingly bad...almost as bad as AVTV
Jack is pulling the strings nicely
and Green and McGinn are doing well

Almost the entire season, so it’s Bruce doing the make things difficult by playing some one out of position.
Does not make sense.

You sound surprised. We can't afford to be dropping points especially at home. Bruce needs to stop bloody tinkering and keep it simple by playing players in their best positions.
