Absolute lack of any pace really stood out tonight. Not quick enough to play Championship football.
I agree! But clearly I need to work harder on my sarcastic replies!Don’t think it’s the night for scapegoats at all tbh.
No that wasn’t aimed at you. I could tell that was sarcastic. Was just a general comment in response to the OP of this thread and some comments on the match thread. I may have given Clarke a bit of criticism myself on that thread but in reality tonight isn’t about individuals.I agree! But clearly I need to work harder on my sarcastic replies!
Really hope you are right, I just don't see it.Nonsense post. VDB will be worth more than Hackney. Tav. Spence etc. Fact. He’s a class act who was playing out of position and is still only a kid.
A game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge has no bearing on what they are and aren't good enough to do in the Championship.
People need to get it out of their heads that pace is everything. It's not FIFA.
I never said it wasn't relevant, I said it wasn't everything.
As someone said on here recently, Thiago Silva has never really been especially quick, and he's even less quick now at nearly 40, and he's still playing for a team like Chelsea because his awareness, positioning, ability to read the game, among other things are exceptional, and we don't even need exceptional.
Your first language certainly isn't football.Mmmm......lost in translation maybe, appreciate your first language may not be English.
