Was looking at some defensive stats today and Varane is ranking top 3 in the squad for things like tackles, interceptions and blocks. Basic stats really and of course he should for the role he plays. But thats with fewer minutes than those ranking alongside him. I'm not a stats guy by any means, could all be nonsense, so would love it if he gets a section next time one of the analytics guys does a LFW article. Please. Just to see his impact compared to others who play that role. |

He's a decent defender, a really good bloke, slightly limited ability wise and prone to more mistakes than some other players in the squad. But on good form and important to the way the team plays at the moment. Only outfield player to play every minute too in the League I think, as the saying goes 'the best ability is availability'...certainly true of our defence anyway. Plays with heart and passion, but not any more than plenty of others in the squad who seem to get praised for it far less than him. But I guess we all see things differently in that sense. |

Oxford put out a match preview this morning stating that although Gary Rowett has joined, he won't be taking charge tomorrow as its only the day before the game. Problem being they haven't actually announced Rowett yet. Got pulled relatively quickly it seems, but yeah, Rowett new manager then. |

I'm lost, every team is the same now because they don't all play 4-4-2 with wingers? I must be watching a different game. The tactical diversity in football is wild these days. |

Sure, I just thought players needed a pro deal to go out on loan. But maybe it doesn't matter when it comes to non-league loans or at least to the level of Harrow. |

Booked it yesterday as the draw was live, hoping to catch a couple of other games while I'm out there. I know there is another wave of ticket sales and re-sale stuff in the coming months so will keep an eye on it. |

Southampton want Danny Rohl. Be nice to see Sheff Wed destabilised again and dragged back into the relegation fight |

He's been sacked. Inevitable. Watch him get an even better job now. A deluxe Mick Beale |

Pep will be next at this rate. Only one good Catalan manager in this country now! |

I use the Futbology app to keep track of all games I attend, QPR or mostly not. Just so I know which grounds I've been to etc. Not so odd but I've only been to the Hawthorns twice and both times were games with 6 goals (a 5-1 defeat and 3-3 draw sometimes in the mid 2000s) |

Quite sad that, Oxford lad who supports Oxford and was in dreamland to get them up. They're performing as well as their budget will allow them to. Fans are up in arms about it as you'd expect. Should have got the full season regardless there. |

Had completely lost the squad and had been clearly losing the plot himself for a while. Best for him and the club that he's out of there. Obviously the replacement is already ready, Vitor Pereira, Portuguese journyman who is an obvious agent pick. Classic Wolves |
