In an interview I listened to yesterday (the Blackmore Solent one probably) Tonda himself called out the throw-in to Bragg as not being great... can't remember his exact words but he was certainly laying part of the blame on Manning (without explicitly naming him)
Yep, agree, although I'd venture that Matsuki isn't a million miles away from making himself undropable... These days, he always seems to improve us when he comes on and/or when he starts.
I'm not that fussed personally ,but I quite like a post-match chat on here about things that crop up in conversation... It's almost why internet football messageboards were invented...
Not sure about that... Both Wood and now Stephens have partnered well with him... With the 'better on paper' loan fella also in the wings, I'd say the "debate" has probably widened rather than narrowed...?
