100% ........ I do not believe at all that Nourry picks the team or the formation, or the tactics.

If he does then the Manager is no good.....100%


Julien is not the manager, he's first team coach.

I suspect that the board do exert some influence. That would partially explain why they moved away from the manager model.

I was at yesterday's game & as Northern did at a previous game I watched Madsen closely,

Madsen was beyond lazy, never showed for the ball and hid.

Varane changed the game when he replaced him as we then had 10 outfield players on the pitch.

In a team that rarely dominates possession and games Madsen is a complete passenger.


Madsen is a really odd player. He either does very well, end of last season and Preston last week, or he is completely anonymous. There is zero middle ground.

I think what we have got is a consistently inconsistent player, which is what makes him so infuriating to watch.

I wonder if he'll put Varane at 6 with Madsen at 8 when Morgan needs a break.

Poll: How is Nourry cooking so far ? 🤣

I wouldn't say that he has bee 'very good' in any matches really. From memory at the end of last season (Sunderland and Oxford) he did quite well but then faded badly. Same against Preston.

Never going to take a game by the scruff of its neck

Just hope it's not too long that Stephan and Nourry waste on giving him chances again this season.

I reckon he's has 2 games in maybe 20 where you might give him a 5/10,

The other 18 odd he's been a passenger,

Playing him in the Championship is a bit like putting a Panda Bear in a cage full of Grizzly Bears,

It's not his fault he hasn't got the physicality or courage for this league,

Best to sell and put him & us out of misery.

Sign Hayden and we can forget about Madsen. Field a keeper he always does a decent job, but Madsen try as we want him to succeed is just a passenger in this league

Field and Madsen just not good enough. What a difference Varane made when he came on. He can do the ugly stuff but can also turn and play forward!

Short memory on here and willingness to write a player off as always... Wasn't long ago field was scooping up end of season awards.

Do people really think we are easily going to sign better, more loyal players in the same position who play as many games a a season as him? Be careful what you wish for. He's not the most exciting midfielder but he's done a pretty good job for ours in some absolute terrible teams consistently over the years

100% agree.

I think that Wilkins is right that for this team to improve the centre of midfield has to improve, and I also think he's right that ideally all three (please, not two!) central midfielders should be able to play on the turn and pass and/or run forward. But there is just so much to admire about Field, and your post nails it.

No one is remotely suggesting Nourry is telling Stephan what to do in game. Read my post again. There is a game model, a theory, that is set by Nourry. That is a fact. He says the coach has flexibility to veer from it. The way we are setting up and some of the personnel calls in the first two games are remarkably similar to last year’s start too.

And Colback started 16 and came on as a sub in 8. Morgan started 21 and came on as a sub in 11.


I think Morgan is OK, he needs to improve but the midfield position that he plays, a forward thinking forward passer, is much more difficult to do well.

Regarding the 3 CMs that you mention, I cannot recall many times, 10/12 max, I recon whereby Field, Varane & Morgan have played together and the results have been very mixed indeed.

Is Madsen good enough, maybe yes, maybe no.......he ended the season pretty well, started v PNE no worse than most & did ok imho, got tired in the 2nd like many of them did. Posters need to understand that not all players tear around the pitch, kick players, tackle to hurt, just like not all players can see passes and execute accordingly. Some of the stuff about him is far from accurate, one poster stated he passes and stands still - not correct because he actually passed it wide and went to support the player, lots of examples. Some of the posters criticism is poor play. But as I say, at the start, maybe he is, maybe his is not good enough - tough call, just like who is the better keeper, nardi or walsh..

I can accept he can't run
I can accept he can't tackle
I can accept he can't head

I cannot accept why he consistently refuses to show for the ball.

Strange PRR.......there you were supporting your favourite player (the mighty Lyndon Dykes) rarely saying anything against him and not recognising his many failures, transferred, played just a very few games in a lower division, cannot get a game now basically, still not scoring goals........and there you are giving Madsen the cane!!!!

Shocking!!!!

Not true.......I have seen him do it many times. If he didn't show he would not touch the ball.

Yet another untruth about Madsen.

Yes he said that but he also said that it changes all the time during the match....please do not tell me that Nourry gets on the phone and tell him mid game to change the tactics and players.

Sure, Nourry says what he wants but not in close detail. That is the Coach & his team.

I would be interested how many games Morgan started last season compared with Colback.


Colback 17
Morgan 19

I'm a Dykes fan by no means, but he scored a winning goal yesterday. In this division.

Dykes cannot get a game heh,

Won a 100 yard sprint in the 98th minute yesterday and showed superb movement in the 6 Yard Box to score the winner,

Still getting game time with Stansfield £10m & Kyogo £10m likely ahead of our £1m fire sale of Dykes.

More poor business by us especially as replaced by Celar who like Madsen is just not brave enough to play Championship football.

C'mon, how many times did he save us defending set pieces in that position, watch yesterday's goal, likely fresh legs as no doubt replacing Stansfield or Kyogo but always thought he was quick enough over a distance, great finish too.

Dykes scored a lovely goal at Sheff U this time last year but he was still crap and Birmingham were the only takers on his wages. Chances are he’ll be out the squad when the German bloke is up and running. Replacing him with even worse doesn’t mean he was worth keeping and overall he’s been dreadful for Birmingham too.

Be interesting to see how League 1 Player of the Year & 20 Goal Striker fares with our supply chain of smash em long Smyth & delay your final ball just long enough for the defence to reset Chair.

We can but hope.
