Now that is classic. Vision and pace beyond the ability of the rest of the team.

All will be forgiven of course if he scores the winner against Palarse

In the Argus it quotes that Mr Hughton was very pleased with his performance on Saturday. The Man obviously knows nothing.

He is a great man manager, a good 'on-message' club man, and obviously wants to protect his big money signing from near-inevitable criticism of his performance from the press and social media. That is simply good, professional management - it doesn't mean that CH really thinks that Locadia played well on Saturday, when most impartial viewers would say otherwise. Whether he says so or not, CH must be concerned that Locadia is one of the few that our scouts have got wrong, but hoping that with time he can turn the corner. Fingers crossed that he is right.

His strengths are his pace and movement when facing the goal, not hold up play with his back to goal.
We need to adapt our play away from home so that we play the ball over the top for him to turn the away defence and allow the rest of the team to move up.
He makes the runs but the midfield just go square or backwards.

strong and stable with me, or...
That was the identical argument made by CMS admirers. Poyet and Garcia ruined a 'great talent'.
Is it PotG?

Sounds like the CMS rhubarb....manager played him in the wrong role, not to his strengths blahblah.
So far, doesn't look up to it, imho of course.

I think we'll see a truer reflection of what CH actually thou hit of high isn't performance when we see the starting 11 and the bench on Friday evening.
Indeed.

re: What Chris said about JL. This is what he actually said.
""I thought he did well.
"Whoever was going to play you knew it was going to be a difficult game and they would have to do their running without the majority of the ball.
"That was the reason (he started). I thought it was a good opportunity to freshen things up a little bit, give Glenn a rest. I was really pleased with Jurgen's contribution."

Oh brilliant - this is worth a thread all of its own for those of us who recite the one-to-elevens of yesteryear. I offer:
Clemence, Lawler, Lindsay, Smith, Lloyd, Hughes, Keegan, Cormack, Heighway, Toshack, Callaghan,
And we'd need Michael Palin's Hagerty F, Hagerty R etc..... from Ripping Yarns. Some of the funniest stuff
Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grubb.

I heard Locadia's form is a little off, because the club are making him wear different boots.

Schmeichel; Neville, Johnsen, Stam, Irwin; Beckham, Keane, Scholes, Giggs; Cole, Yorke
Treble-winning team.
Although they only started one game together, so I suppose this doesn't count
