Sangare should definitely sit out the next game. He looks like he needs a rocket up his arse to be honest and at the moment looks like PSV did us dirty.
Yates is the obvious one to come in for him.

I stated a few games a go hes not that great,no turn of pace,not great in the air,struggles with the old 1-2 and awareness.Do i think he could become a better player certainly so..
We are a different beast at home against the good teams, we will win I promise.

And also why psv were prepared to let him go even though they were in the champions league.
He doesn't look like he would cope in the champions league

I don't think Villa are better than Liverpool, especially not away. Still a very tough game but hopefully not as one-sided as that.

I fully agree about the Luton collapse-but I expect a hard fought game at the City Ground
next Sunday.
I anticipate a Forest reaction.

They said the same about Rodri in his first year at City. It's also about us finding the best role for him, he played where Mangala is playing for PSV for example.
Give it time, he will come good. I don't think he's been close to bad like some are saying, just he hasn't looked out best player which is what people wanted.

No he said he moved like a Sierra.

Sangare isn’t the first player who’s come from the Dutch league to struggle in the PL and he certainly won’t be the last.
Fingers crossed he adapts fast as he’s cost way too much money to not be one of our best players.

At least Taiwo is back!
How did he look when he came on?

I just can't get my head around why he's played every game since Chelsea (the last game we played well in)!

It tizwas it is
We don’t know that this season, we haven’t faced any top teams at home yet, All we’ve done so far is struggle against supposed relegation fodder.
I think Sangare will gradually get better throughout the season, the more that the team gels and the more that the team get better, unfortunately two seasons in a row, we’ve been in a position different to most teams where we’ve been unable to slowly bring players into the team.
Difficult to take any positives from that sadly. Our failure to maximise points against Palace,Burnley,Brentford and Luton don't augur well. This was predictable today but we looked no more dangerous than Luton until the latter stages when Liverpool switched off. Tough times ahead imo.

He got stuck in within 1 second exactly what we were missing
Bob Fossil
Nottingham's dirty secret
Coops chased him for 18 months. He's essentially this season's MGW. So I don't think he'll be dropped. He should be. But he won't be.
I think we'll probably see Yates come in for Mangala or Nico.
George cooney
Viv Anderson
Maybe so, sometimes i wonder if its just players need breaking and rebuilding regarding Rodri hes diffo gravy mate..

Steve Chettle
I wouldn't say better, but the argument that he cannot play when we want to control the game seems weak
Coops dropped Yates for Sangare for Burnley after Ryan put in a brilliant display against Chelsea. This particular incident was self-inflicted.

Well we saw what we were capable of when Taiwo and Yates came on so that's a positive.
We didn't totally fold even though we were being outclassed so that's a positive
Taiwo being back is a massive positive by the way

I was critical of Taiwo last season from a technical point of view but one thing nobody can doubt is he that he isn't fazed by his opponent's reputation. He will smash into world-renowned players and make himself a nuisance against the very best.
Unfortunately we have a number of players who see the big names they're next to in the tunnel and shit themselves.

I'm confident Sangare will come good; similar to Montiel he just needs time to adapt to the Prem.
I am however becoming frustrated with Coops again, I thought/hoped we were past this cowardly way of playing against the top teams, particularly after the Luton f*** up, I was hoping we'd have gone and given it a right go. It's also time for Yates to come back into the starting line up and for Vlachodimas to be given a chance.
Other than the midfield thing, Murillo showed well against them and if he reins in his drives against the top teams for the time being he'll be great.
Good to see Taiwo back, but we're clearly struggling for goals. If we only do one bit of business in January, we must strengthen the front line.
Oh, and hire a bloody physio to stop all of these injuries.
