All Scottish AA late game or tomorrow. Souttar Sunday.

No Baccus today which is concerning. Luongo bench as Phillips gets the start. No Watts. Bilokapic bench. Elder starting. 

Is Burgess not even their 2nd choice CB for Ipswich now?  To be honest don't really care about Luongo since he won't play for the national team again.

Robertson definitely looks well above average at this level, not (yet) dominating like he did at portsmouth but maybe will once he gets the feel of the level

Ipswich just named their starting 11. Phillips in over Luongo. Disappointing. 

They've got to starting using Phillips at some point. It's unfortunate but the cost needs to be justified and he'll gain sharpness. Luongo will get his minutes.

Robertson will be the shining light at Cardiff that should have clubs poaching him within 12 months. Cardiff have been playing dire football for a good few years now.

And there you go. Robertson right in the mix with two opportunities at the start of the half.

One gorgeous crossfield ball and another sharp little ball to Ramsey in the box.

Well after watching the first half of Cardiff Middlesbrough I think I can confidently say at this rate neither club is getting promoted. 

Cardiff are too sloppy and Middlesbrough lack creativity going forward and seem to butcher their chances. Borough definitely go forward with more repurpose though. 

Robertson has looked good, creative and moves the ball with paces and precision. I think he'll become more useful as the team starts to trust him more and use him. At the moment he seems to be getting bypassed a bit.

I felt Metcalfe had nudge himself that bit higher in standard and stature last night. Very prominent and you can see the intensity and new manager coaching paying off. Just needs those scorer points.

Surely Hürzeler doesn't get him to Brighton in 12 months? I say this more as a lot of subs in the EPL come from nowhere off a season of Ligue 1 or Scandinavian football and Metcalfe is edging on 2 Bundesliga 2 and a full Bundesliga season.

Looking at the age of some of the players Brighton are using, there's minimal hope Peupion will be considered among that batch. There's so much more than just leaving a club. Good facilities, lifestyle, support network. He's got to find a place for senior football soon as he can't play reserves much longer.

There are 3 types of promoted sides, ones who are so good at the start and win, ones who play a lot of ball but can't get the end product, those who get battered. St Pauli is the second one. There is something there but it's just the final ball. Costly losses and they'll need to start getting results.

American defender. Just one competitor gone. He could also play RB I think.

2nd week st pauli look the better team but are behind on the score sheet

St pauli are really good at varying their pace of theur ball movement. They can knock it around for a bit then suddenly the ball is pinging around lightening quick. But the last pass hasnt stuck

Maybe, im naive enough to hope he plays on sunday :p

He might sneak into the squad. The Coman saga has been odd. The cost and stuffing around won't please club or Kompany. Fans saying his wage etc is wasteful when Irankunda and Tel offer a better future.

They're playing Freiburg 17:30 Sunday. Wouldn't be surprised if they said just get on a plane Friday night to get to Australia instead of a rush hassle. He's probably first reserve for the first team currently.
