Why didn't you apply for the job? I mean you've played at a higher level than Pep and unlike him you can see that Henry is utter wank. There must be some sort of glitch in Pep's spreadsheets, that tell him every statistical measurement of performance under the sun, otherwise he'd clearly get nowhere near the squad. Pep is on twitter, I'm sure he'd very much appreciate your insight. Jury is out for me on Henry, let's wait give it until Xmas before we judge looks like Henry ant quite fit, but if he's not up to standard there will be a lot on here who will comment I will, but let's just wait

Sorry, didn't realise I couldn't have an opinion on an Oxford player without being the manager. Think you need to get down the Tate Modern mate... Is that where I apply to be the next Oxford manager?

Who would you play instead of Henry? what would they do differently? would their role be different?
Somebody who appears to do little, but brings out/allows the best to come out of others is fine by me. I think with Rothwell being given attacking license in the centre, it's necessary to have a wide player who isn't an out and out winger because otherwise we'd get caught out on the break much more.
Time to get back to Tracey Emin's bed 😉

The majority of people are above average intelligence Wouldn't the majority of people be of average intelligence or below? Not according to them

He hasn't set the world on fire yet but he does seem to be slowly improving game by game. Wasn't a stand out yesterday but didn't do much wrong either. Hopefully his big games come when some of our current stand out players have a little dip in form. Not everyone is going to be playing their best football week in week out. Just not possible. Plus what a good player to have in the squad. I wouldn't be complaining at all if he comes off the bench in a tight game.

Time to get back to Tracey Emin's bed 😉 I think Mowett could play up there? Then you have Van Kessel as well. I didn't actually say he was shit, I said he wasn't worth a seven yesterday and that, for a 28 year old in his prime with experience at this level and above, we need to be seeing more from him, he has been lacking end product and, while being an unselfish worker is good, we can't afford the 3 behind Obika not to be chipping in with goals and assists as the 4,2,3,1 doesn't allow that. Fair point on him allowing Rothwell to get forward more, I think Clotet may have swapped him and Hall around to keep us more compact what with Rothwell not really being a holding midfielder. We will need more from our most senior attacking player on Tuesday though in a tougher game, it would be a good one for him to make his mark on.

So my thoughts
First half a very poor mans Arsenal. Lots of pretty football but lacking that cutting edge. Second for 15 mins we had that edge and 3 good goals.
So while Hall was MoM, first half very typical being very light weight. Candice - starting to real like - must stay. Left back - words fail - just love watching him. Henry - jury out The Scum man, frustrating but hey not bad. The new centre half - top notch - be in Peps shoe having to choose between 3 ( Nel / Will / M ) Bet Raglan is wondering how he will get back in - as for Martin - history. SO the real challenge. Midfield - was a Lunny fan and clearly we still missing that type of player _ HOWEVER and this is why we could still be a very good side - we do move the ball and so much quicker.
So improve the accuracy of that and just maybe we could become a very good Arsenal side !!

He hasn't shown it here yet, so I wouldn't bother with the snide comments until he at least gives you something to back it up with. He hasn't shown it yet except to those with a bit of knowledge as to how football is played. I thought his movement yesterday was good, and sometimes brilliant. All these people who think Henry is so good, what on earth must they think of Hall, a wide player who actually affects games in the tangible way of goals, assists and chances created?!
