I thought gnonto was our best player against Derby. He is a young lad with lots of talent he has just been unlucky with injuries at wrong times and the good form of James and Solomon last year. And now we have stopped playing with wingers.
He has contributed to three good results so far .
Goal yesterday. Penalty against Liverpool and a wonderful cross for dcl.
He is arguably in better form than okafor. But maybe he doesn't have the pace.
I think with a run of games he could show us how valuable he is.

Pace is great but you need to have the end result and Okafor only shows glimpses of what we hoped he could do. I've always liked Willie G for his enthusiasm and commitment and hope we can find a slot for him to play on a more regular basis. He's done ok the last few games.

I would like willy to get more game time. I think he needs it to really develop. Okafor is I think suffering a little from the pace of English football. He started like a train but he is having a bit of a dip in my opinion.
I like how willy doesn't give the ball away a lot and he links the play well.

Gnonto is a good player but I’m not sure he will fulfill his potential. I also hate his constant cheating and histrionics, it drives me mad.
How many times has he been rolling around feigning injury while the opponent attacks?!
Seems like a nice fella though!
4.) 12 Jan 2026 22:56:09
He's a young Italian! He is going to roll around a bit . But he plays with a smile on his face and he has a few years yet to improve.

All teams roll around as if they been hit by a bus Gnonto is no different seems to be a part of the game, like goal keepers going down . watched the woman play the other night it’s creeping in to there game now to.
6.) 13 Jan 2026 17:32:33
Oh no! God forbid the women start rolling around, crying and complaining for nowt! ?.

Great result last night not pretty football but if long throws are back why not bring back two strikers?
We really unsettled them with our direct play and they struggled to cope with the press at the back.
Bijols header was a bullet and struijk wasn't far away again. I did not think it was going to be aos night in front of goal after a couple of scuffs but another cracker.
So bring on Liverpool. Good time to play them as they are scratching around for form?
Bogle seems to enjoy the wing back role as well probably his best showing this term.
Just no more injuries for a while now please. We need a settled side into the new year.!

Another poor performance yesterday. No real fight no quality going forward. Again with farkes teams no real tactics of attacking just keep the ball and see what happens. Bogle who was one of our best last is struggling. Whether it is that he has not got a proper winger in front of him or he is just finding the extra quality of defenders in the prem a bit too much but he is not a threat or he hasn't been.
Bijol is not a real upgrade on struijk. He is not a left sided cb his distribution and passing on his left is poor. And I think forest let him have the ball over rodon. Which is mad because rodon is not the best with ball at his feet.
In midfield we just gave them time to put the ball where they wanted. We needed pressure on the ball. But it never came and the subs were too late again. Stach again was out of his depth. Longstaff looked like he did not know what he was meant to be doing. And amps was chasing around after their forwards and attacking mids.
Forest had a game plan we didn't. They had a manager who changed the course of the game. We didn't. We had players that seemed not up for it. They did.
Where to now with a very tough run ahead. Our good start is fizzling away. Do we have the players or the tactics to deal with it?
1.) 10 Nov 2025 12:02:57
I think whole team didn’t know their roles. Utter trash from woe to go.
02 Nov 2025 00:12:58
Well pick the bones out of that one! To start, we just didn't. Slow, poor and without purpose. We tried to play against Brighton as we did under Jessie a mid block trying to stop them playing through midfield and it didn't work.
We did have some good possession later in the first half but our quality of passing and crossing and set pieces was shocking.
Do we have this one down to a bad day? Did we expect something else from this game?
I would have liked us to give them a better game? They never were under pressure or looked like a team to lose their lead.
Like the arsenal game it's one to learn from and one to not repeat. But like arsenal we are going to this Season meet teams that will hand us our arses on a football shaped plate.
Perri made a couple of really nice saves.
1.) 02 Nov 2025 12:18:07
Perri also cost a goal and got an assist.

I agree Ben good post.
Aus you wanted a new keeper, well guess what, you’ve got one. In my opinion I thought he did well.
18 Oct 2025 11:35:54
Just seen a couple of really good goals from logan White. He is an academy player i think they said we got him from Bradford academy. Really good goal cutting in off the left wing and then a long range free kick. One to watch!
1.) 18 Oct 2025 16:50:46
Sadly he'll probably be joining Archie Gray at Spuds soon ?.
14 Oct 2023 16:15:56
He said we would be looking at loans primarily.
If the loans are as good as jadon, rodon and spence we should be golden.
18 Jan 2026 09:21:40
Yes aus very much in control. There has been the Newcastle game where in the second half we lost a bit of control and got a bit ragged. In most other games since the 5 at the back we have controlled and kept even the good teams at arms length.
I felt that we stopped anything from Fulham at source and didn't let them start to build any momentum.
For a lot of our games this season I have never felt we have been overrun too many times. Which shows that farke has learned from his Norwich days.
Just hope things continue till the end of the season.
Okafor needs to be rested for a few games he doesn't look like the player who started the season.

.
Tes topman. Like kalvin to city he chose somewhere with lots of options in his position. Lots of international players that he has to shine above to be noticed.
A friend of mine knows the family of lewis-potter who moved from hull to Brentford.
They deliberated for quite a while on where he would go and get game time. He chose well.
Archie has potential but he needs game time. And with spurs struggling for form a manager might overlook a young relatively inexperienced midfielder.
The batterings they took under ange might not have helped either. He played a lot out of position. He needs regular football in his preferred position.
