Meredith starting against Wolves

Surely Meredith is ahead of Gersbach for the back up left back spot? Playing regularly at a reasonably high level , and playing rather well from reports. I dont expect much from Meredith but Gersbach hasnt dont enough at club level to justify a spot.

does Rogic play for Celtic still

Full match for Meredith, 2-2. Decent result considering how good Wolves are.



Injured

Hudders 1 up already.. whoscored ?

any update on Ryan would be appreicated

bugger it switch to Ryan, will be udner pump. just stopped 2 pretty lame shots
woop. can't believe this move he's made to EPL. legend
have a feeling his defense will let him down this game :/

Morales scores. poor defending , shithouse cross really, dinked just past his finger tips into the top cornerer

crap hudders equalizer, lucky goal, well played cross low in front, far side runner 'RAMADAN' gets onto it.. shittt
just when they were looking a sure thing for goal number 2

3 vs like 1 defender and GK Quaner absolutely screws it up rofl wtf 

qpr playing ange's voodoo formation lots of euro teams are playing it actually

luongo wright and irvine with full 90s
irvine playing cam and wright playing rb

Maty had some top draw saves vs Chelsea. handled it like a pro. 
BRighton offered abs lootly bugger all , just defended 

Mooy did his usual. Quaner was so wasteful, had multiple possession in good position & just buggered it all night. Hurry up Kechunga!!!!!!!!!
They should have won. 

they are now in an automatic promotion spot though

i think you mean clear of the relegation zone - if so its only 4 points clear so a month of poor form sometime soon would have them under a lot of pressure

sorry thought he said bristol city for a moment my bad

Brighton might be signing Dembele from Celtic which might help them going forward.

Full match for Jedinak in a 2:1 loss at Brentford. He played midfield this time. Miracle recovery as he was supposed to be out for months with injury. 

Crawley lost 2-0 to 5th placed Colchester

The players are even less suited to it than Australia.  3 atb seems to be in vogue for some reason, its not just Ange.

I'm hoping it is just a rumour.

3ATB is common with say a midfield diamond
what is different is the midfield box

Karl Dodd announced as the new coach of the Guam national team.

In the last qualifiers they beat India with 10,000 times their population, maybe he can top that!

If you include the two penalties Juric won for himself as Assists he has 18 goals and 10 assists for Luzern from 56 games which is a goal contribution of exactly every other game (also won 3 other penalties that were missed). He also had this rate at Roda with 10 from 20 games.Which is slightly up from his 17 goals 5 Assists for WSW. I feel like if he made the step up to say the Bundesliga he would have a similar contribution rate but would need the right team. I could see him playing his best next to a poacher type second striker like a rogic of Griezman or maybe a team with a front three and overlapping wingers like Real Madrid with Ronaldo and Bale but obviously at a lower level 

Counting a self won penalty as both a penalty AND an assist is really flaky. The fact is Tomi has a mediocre record for Luzern and the swiss league is just about the apex of his career. I really hope Mclaren or Mehbratu or someone else develops quickly because our striker stocks are depressingly thin at the moment.

Don't worry rusty... this kid Ben Folami... will be our saviour.

Rose starting away to Rangers
Edwards starting away to Aberdeen

All started with van gaal at the 2014 WC who ironicallyis now in contention for the Socceroos. 3atb with wingbacks hadn't really been strongly used at the top level in years until he brought it back. It had been 4231 and 433 for many years prior

Just saw that a will now have a Aussie striker at Benfica
