He did his job, nothing flash. Just got on with it and we don't need to talk about him. How refreshing that was. 8/10 nothing flash, no dramas. Robert_Garrett added 19:57 - Feb 8 Linkboy13 added 20:38 - Feb 8 Today's game emphasised the massive gap between Premier league and Championship and if we do go down and keep most of the squad we should romp this league. Players like Hirst, Clarke, Hutchinson, Philogene etc find the Premier league physically to demanding. Eeyore added 21:51 - Feb 8 Incredible support today with huge Town following making all the noise. But Coventry supporters also showed up unlike many other clubs today who couldn’t fill their stadiums. Scoreline was possibly a little flattering but that’s not a problem. Great to see Clarke play well but PL defenders don’t give the same space as Coventry did. Sad about Szmodics, he is an important player. The midfield pairing did OK but not good enough to start in PL. still feel Morsy and Cajuste will start next match. Phillips is getting closer but not sure Taylor is quite there yet. Hirst was outstanding and looks set to start instead of Delap. Delap seems to only be able to kick and charge. He often gets the ball stuck under his feet and leaves it behind. He is more of an impact player if we are losing with 20 minutes to go. He has forgotten he is in a team. The coaches have work to do there to get him back on track. Townsend did well and could certainly deputise for Davis is we needed to be more secure at the back. We were a little lacking down the wings at times. I hope Philogene can settle into the team soon. This was his big chance and apart from his goal he was very disappointing again. On the bright side, McKenna has been watching him for a couple of years and wouldn’t have signed for £20M if he wasn’t sure. More to come from Jaden hopefully. BathwickBlue added 22:31 - Feb 9 Is it just me or does Philogene look either A) totally disinterested and doesn’t want to be here B) completely unfit C) all of above
