Someone needs to be, it’s been a recurring theme of being unfit and unable to stand up to the physicality of this league.
I’m all ears for smileys after match musings, we’re going to chew this one up and spit him out fast if he doesn’t buck up his ideas. |
I think it's become clear that Stephan is Nourry's man and it would take something seismic to get rid of him... | | | |

What did we learn today?
Walsh still needs to get better at kicking a football.
This season's Madsen is last season's Madsen.
When we move the ball at pace we're a good side.
Varane is essential to our midfield.
Dear old Field can't put his laces through a ball.
If we don't give the striker something to work with, he won't score.
I'm disappointed with the scoreline, but at least we were the better side in the second half. |
Surely we learnt most of that last season? Unless by 'we' you meant the new manager and coaches.
I think we need to cut our losses on Madsen and Celar and use the funds for CM, LB, and maybe another GK to get Walsh out on loan. |  |

Mr Numpty
''Varane gave the ball away twice on edge of his box that led to clean strikes on goal.''
I would forgive him for the first one as the pass in to him was very poor. |  | | |

Before we completely write off .'Smiley'/'le shrug', I thought it worth pointing out that Marti's Leicester lost 2-1 against Preston today. Some odd results all round and looks like a few teams, not just us, are still finding their feet.
Personally, I'll give it 8-10 games before writing anyone off. | | | |

I don't understand this football club anymore.
We sign a striker on Wednesday who scored 21 goals for his club last season, and play him for only the last 20 minutes of today's game.
Richard Kone has had a full pre-season, and played one full game for Wycombe this season. Make it make sense, someone.
As for this latest bizarre team selection from Stephan, following hot on the heels of Tuesday's disgraceful capitulation to a league one side, yet to win a game in league one, I'm lost for words. How many players were playing on the wrong side of the field, and how many out of position altogether?
Make it make sense, please.

Well we’ve become a professional football club now so frightened of playing professional footballers in professional football matches that we don’t now play professional footballers in professional football matches .
The club is now so scared of injuries we take Smyth off after 45 minutes , we only play Varane for 30 mins even though it was only a concussion he had and not an injury .
Yep I’m an old fart . Hands up .
But for me the lunatics are now in charge of the asylum.
There is ‘managing the load’ and then there is total paranoia.
Modern football indeed . |  | | |

Kone made one sub appearence for Wycombe playing about 35 minutes. He missed training for several days in the lead up to the transfer. | | | |

That first half was unacceptable. I hope JS will start to pick up on the following.
Field is not an 8. He is a 6.
Varane has to play next to him.
Play De Silva if available in his natural left back position.
Morrison may need to be dropped as he has not started the season well.
Much better second half but our best chances fell to Field. |  |

Big summer signing , big expectations , then we play him out of position because Celar can’t play anywhere else .

Decent fight back. Second half. Didnt quite go for us.
Think we did enough for a draw, which could have happened.
Few more players coming back into the team. With two possibly three more additions, we could do well.
Two sloppy goals conceded and there goes the game.
Points i saw.
Esquerdinha made a difference as did Kolli.
Burrell and Kone both showed flashes of what they could give for our team.
Good to see Varane back too.
We.definitely need a left back in, Mbuengue there is not going to be an option.
Its disappointing with Madsen today but hate all the nonsense blaming him for world peace not breaking out. What people wont pick up on though is Varane gave the ball away twice on edge of his box that led.to clean strikes on goal. If that had been Madsen the usual culprits would have reared up again.....
But lots of green shoots and a couple of weeks of the window to add a few more touches, all being well.
Despite the loss, was pleased and think we can build from here with several more first team players coming back in.
And WOW - a whole match without any injuries kicking in !!! |
The problem with Madsen is that he hides. Varane was constantly demanding the ball. It’s not about making mistakes, it’s about wanting the ball and wanting to progress it. Madsen , unfortunately, has exactly the same traits as Dozzell before him. He looks scared to death to impose himself in any shape or form. | | | |

Don’t expect too much in terms of performance. It’ll be another long, hard season if this continues.
I think it’s a very low bar but maybe we could start (from kick off) with:
Organisation
Fitness
Stamina
Determination
Commitment
Concentration
…instead of waiting for half feckin time, when everyone needs/gets a bolloxing. We’re not world beaters, I get it - but do the basics please.
Maybe my ‘hierarchical’ expectations are a bit high though.
Yep, It’s clearly me and I’ll get some help with my brand. | |

Latest bizarre team selection?
It’s only his 2nd team selection this season - the cup game was handed over to the Dev Squad and taken out of his hands by ‘the club’ I.e. CN.
Yeah he got it wrong on the left side first half and then rectified it at HT.
Kone has had 5mins to be measured up for his shirt and shorts and you think it’s an unfathomable mystery that he did not start and score in this team? With the service he would get prime Thierry Henry would not get a sniff.
Some grounds for optimism at FT unlike 2 seasons ago under GA where there was something to actually worry about. |  |

I don’t think it negated kone. Watford happened to reassert themselves in the last 15 mins. Not sure what changed but assume qpr lost some legs after being all over Watford for the majority of the second half. Varane in particular faded away after a goood start
Celar was brought in bc esquerdinha and kolli were playing delicious crosses into the box. To extent aerial, dembele isnt an option (despite his best efforts)…. Seemed like celar was intended to be another option for far post crosses from the left hand side
Having said that Celar was totally invisible at the end. Don’t think you can blame him theregiven it was such a short cameo
Celar is the third striker now w burrell and kome. If we’re not going to use him in this type of situation, we’re never going to use him | | | |

Talking off kick off…. What the hell is that kick into touch about l?
It’s not even hidden with any players half heartedly going for it .
Even my Mrs said “we aren’t playing rugby, what’s that ?”
For me it gave a glimpse into the mindset for that first half.
And as I said before , I felt slightly embarrassed.

Disagree completely. Think he’s had a great game. |
Got skinned numerous times and was at fault for second goal. No man's land for first goal. Was leaden footed non stop and Watford targeted him all day. He was awful. Not sure what Morrison you were watching. | | | |
