Definitely a fair comment. He has more ability in his left finger than Fox has. He's fit has loads of energy - good at reading a game - a very good call...... Certainly haven't seen any of your veery unfair and aggressive detractors on here coming up with a better solution......

No spells No

Good summing up...... Forren read the game well but as one or two said - he looks very short of PACE ...... Rowe looked very good and played with intelligence. Taggart caught the eye as did McQueen but not in a first team way though Taggart was easily as good as Fox however that's not really a compliment is it..... A good watch and deserved draw.... a little worrying we ran out of puff........
-
Can't understand why Rowe isn't in the first team - he 'has good delivery after all' !!!!!!!!!
-
Second half we played a lot of balls from half way line high and hopeful forwards. Call it a medium long if you like but it was definitely a 50/50 longish high hoof.
-
Wel we played long ball hoof it all the second half and really was terrible. Issue is not the passing game it's personnel in the team who are either totally enept ie a certain left back! Or players that are not playing the part in knitting together the style of play - I'm not sure why Davis did not come on in place of Gaston - JWP was a very strange substitution...... On another note: If Potty even puts Fox in the squad for the next game or indeed ever plays him again I for one will be calling into question his sanity....let alone his suitability for the job.
-
We are better these days with Davis in and Gaston on the bench. AL and Gaston in the same team - not for me. Gaston doesn't seem to support Punch very well either. I suppose in short as lots have said previously, Gaston is not the best 'Team' player......

MP chasing Espanyol left back Victor Alvarez

The Sunday people know left back is a huge weekness of ours when shaw is out, opposition fans know, their managers know but we continue to play Fox! We get what we deserve ! It's a scandal that we persevere with a left back that is not up to it... Potty seems to take so long to learn lessons... -
If Fox starts the next game our manager has really lost it! Plain and simple it must not happen!
-
Sorry but we didn't pass it! We hoofed it aimlessly and just gave up possession time after time after time.....
-
Sorry but you are wrong - Fox is that bad. The three you mention were all better players than Fox.
-
What happened to our short pass and move game? Playing in little triangles - looks as though that has been completely abandoned??? What happened to - don't make a pass unless you are sure it will reach our player - caress the ball???? Big Sam is the king at what we tried to do today so why didn't we make a bid for him to come and manage here if this is the direction we moving in??
-
A good point but also picking Fox is a straight rank poor decision in any game. However it was tactics today. We look like West Ham these days. I have never seen so many hopeful long balls which just immediately lose possession. The instruction to the players today was long ball which is not going to take us anywhere. Ward Prowse ??? Couldn't understand this substitution - odd!! Davis maybe, he has played well recently and seems to fit our system. JWP is short of match practice and was the last player to come on in place of Rimerez......Potty is not learning about what does work and what doesn't. Today was terrible football - we were totally clueless, poor tactics, poor team selection, poor substitution, and no plan B, this comes from the manager....Simple
-
Can I just agree 100% with this obvious remark. I have lost a good deal of respect for Potty over playing him when he is so obviously completely useless. Indeed we are entitled to ask WHY!
-
Well one we do know now - they will attack our left side! Fox will f--k up is another thing we do Know! Clyne on the left would have been a better move.....
-
We cannot afford to play Fox! Some people just don't get it- he is a liability.......
-
Danny Fox needs Devine intervention!
-
We cannot contemplate playing Fox they will just put the ball on his side all day and annihilate us.... It would be suicidal to say the least....
-
Whilst we can have a sensible debate about a player with some skill like Rimirez there is no similar debate to be taken seriously about such a poor player as Fox.... I agree with your post whole heartedly. What on earth he doing on the same pitch as the rest of the team is impossible to fathom. Surely this time the manager will see the light!
-
What you Fox lovers fail to remember is his mistakes are very numerous he makes mistakes that cost goals directly or indirectly all the time and it just has to stop. He has no positional sense, does not close down his attacking winger and has no awareness of what is happening or likely to happen around him. This has cost us dear and consistency did not start to happen until he was dropped. A total waste of space!
-
Nothing has changed he never was good enough!
-
It's got nothing to do with AL - Fox is dreadful whoever plays in front of him. Just look at the upturn in results when he was dropped - immediate effect! Fox is truly aewful and continually costs us goals.... Has no awareness and no marking ability - he just cannot read a game.... The idea that the Spuds would buy Fox is totally laughable......
-
Fox has not been 'ok' ........ Wake up and smell the coffee he can't mark and is totally unaware of what is happening around him....
-
Fox is and has been dreadful. The very worrying part of this is that our manager has yet to work this out! Unbelievable !

Players "happy with double training" under MP
