Can we get the speed gun out to confirm what mph that was, to see how fast he really is.
Are we talking Van der Ven/Elanga levels (+22.7mph) or just a destroyer of over-the-hill oil tankers (Coady)? |

Was this CCTV footage from the bar?
Looked like evidence of Varane mugging a small child before whipping it top bins. Lovely stuff. |

For our 3rd goal, wind it back a bit and you'll see Morrison win a vital header that leads to our attack. For some reason, at that stage of the game it looks as if it was a 3x2 in their favour from the punt down the middle. If Morrison doesnt win that Charlton are through on goal. Well done lad. |

I don’t see Kone having great pace either and doesn’t quite look 100% fit yet but what he is, is a bloody awkward unit to deal with who can finish and hold it up.
There’s ‘easy on the eye’ and there’s ‘effective.’ He was effective today and will only get better (and quicker over 10 yards) with match sharpness. |

'Indefensible' is slightly extreme.
Bringing in an experienced player to hopefully steady the ship in a pressure game takes it off him a little, he can still develop, we're 3 games in to a 46 game season.
Oh and the 'first oportunity' was Preston, which he started, and he's still around the team to continue his development. |

The problem with this strategy of young 'appreciating asset' ballers is simple: we sell them the project of us as their stepping stone to the prem, but when shit hits the fan, they don’t know how to handle it, don’t have anyone to lean on, or they just care 5% less as long as they’ve stuck one in top bins for the agent’s highlight reel. Im alright Jack..
If that means bringing in a ‘meh’ 26yr old on loan who’s been through bed-shitting situations before, so be it. Avoiding total capitulation in 30mins is sometimes worth more than another raw baller with resale value.
Though getting punched in the face and humbled is the real test. Charlton will show us where we stand and the next 5 are 'winnable' (lol), on paper. Yes, that sounds ridiculous, but so does sacking the manager (and everything before it) after 3 games. Give it till October. |

After all this, Rueben could quite easily just say:
"Great, we can use that to offset the £20m per yr I’ve been injecting to keep things running.” |

He'll be coming in as a somewhat experienced steady-eddie to hold Esquerdinha's hand with minimal demands of playing time from parent club. |

Maybe he’s just the vibes guy.
But yeah, I get what you mean it’s still not clear where he really adds value. He seems to strike a ball well, but our new specialist strikers do that better. So are we just looking at a right-sided utility player (not one to beat a man) who comes on late to battle and whip a cross in?
Definitely not a RB judging by pre-season. I assume he was given an initial 2yr deal that would’ve expired this summer otherwise, why extend it now? Maybe this is about giving him more time to develop into something useful whislt staying cheap.
Don’t want this turning into a sunk cost fallacy with some of these dev squad signings, keeping them around longer than necessary in the hope they eventually come good and vindicate the new 'World Class game model scouting database'. |

Did I imagine hearing that his return to London was partly down to family commitments, or was that nonsense? It would at least explain why he’s not involved on matchdays, maybe his own decision since that would mean even more time away from home, which kind of defeats the point if he came back for the flexibility. |

But the load… think of the load. We can’t possibly risk him running around for more than 100 mins a week!
I agree and when going for it, we could’ve brought him on at LB on Saturday. Once we eventually get some proper cover there, I’d like to see him more central. Great technique, good on the ball… too lightweight? Throw him in and we’ll find out. |

Unless it was an agreed award with the DS/Furs for winning the PL Cup, it made little sense not to include more senior players in a winnable cup game.
Surely a blend of youth & experience, giving some 45-60 mins before sitting on the bench at Watford would have provided a better competitive environment for the youngsters, increased our chances of winning, then given them another shot in the next round.
Not just handing out 7 precious debuts for the sake of it, give it to those who had actually earned it. Win the game, build a sense of achievement - nah just send them out to fend for themselves attack vs defend. Bizarre. [Post edited 13 Aug 21:57]
