    Maddo constantly criticising Engel

    I think if you look at his improvement over this season - he could be a real assett next season. If he continues to improve at his current rate he becomes one of the first names on the teamsheet rather these liability arguments.

    Greenwood and Silvera

    Everyone seems to be forgetting that footballers develop at different rates. Some peak in their early twenties, most in their late twenties, increasingly top players are effective till their mid thirties. There are many players that looked "not up to it" in their first games in the...

    What do you think Sammy Szmodics transfer fee will be.

    I think the last paragraph there is important. Lath has been on an unbelievable run. Szmodics has had a great season. It's very difficult to predict what happens with both next season. Szmodics is probably peaking Lath could improve for another few years yet.

    Finn Azaz

    I think he could go either way - his weakness is clearly physicality - not especially quick or strong. But there is definitely a player in there. It depends on if we find a role for him and he continues to improve (he's only 23 - should be getting better for the next few seasons). I actually...

    Erik ten Hag - bald fraud?

    I thought it was a definite pen - instinctively leans into the ball to block it and caught his elbow which he had moved towards the ball. Not as bad as the one in our game today where the player's arms were out like a keeper making himself big...

    Also little credit for some of his really good passing. The through ball that Lath mis controlled was superb. Hutchinson was superb though

    Greenwood and Silvera

    I'll be honest because of injuries Silvera has played more than expected. If he stays I think he will improve a bit and be worthy of a spot on the bench.

    Greenwood and Silvera

    Sometimes it takes time to develop players. When you bring in young players - sometimes they take time to become the players you need. You look to develop them over a longer period of time. Both these players have shown flashes. Silvera was superb as a false 9 home against West Brom. Even...

    Great game. Good performance. Good chances at both ends. Still not lost since February. We need evolution rather than revolution in the summer

    To Mr Silvera

    Superb play for the Lath chance (and definite penalty) Good run and perfect pull back. I think everyone is looking to have a go at him - not great, but not as bad as is being made out

    Its interesting the different games people see. They look good going forward but we also keep getting into dangerous positions.

    I was just coming on to say i have been impressed by that left side going forward. Silvera does great with that Lath chance. Engel done some great stuff going forward but overcommitted for the attack that led to the corner.

    Team

    I suspect Silvera has come in because they commit forwards and to look for space on the break.

    What needs to happen over the summer then?

    Yeah - we need goals from the 3 behind the striker. McGree was scoring at a good rate earlier in the season, Azaz has 10 in 42 games over the two teams, but I think if you are playing the formation we are you need 30-45 goals from those positions.
