It took Villa 12 months under a strong manager to shift the mentality and be in a European Hunt. It took Newcastle 18 months and a strong manager to shift mentality and be in European hunt. Dyche set the bar low; is it better? Yes... should it...

We need to stop setting low bars like "it's not as bad as ........". It's one of the huge reasons TFG have a massive job on their hands. The Club has been nurtured for the last 40 years with a defeatist, inferiority complex that needs to be...

As the manager and the players have acknowledged: to lose by two goals against Brentford with the advantage of home support is unacceptable. However, 20 years ago, we were being sold a move out of our city to Kirkby and we had just lost 4-0 at...

That’s another of his strengths, he goes out and adapts his game to how a manager wants him to play, no fuss just does it and is able to change again at half time or 70 mins if results are not going their way. I watched his two games against...

Good insight. I just don’t think Moyes will give a real chance to an 18 year old at the moment unless his hand is well and truly forced.

One thing I've noticed with Armstrong at Preston is that there's an expectation for the players at Preston to adhere to the system in place. So at times Armstrong who has been excellent there will kind of disappear but not from a lack of...

I actually think Rohl will turn out to be a good buy after he gets a few more games and gets up to speed. But Armstrong looks very comfortable out there already, even if it was just a cameo. Was easy to see who is more composed of the two. I...

Chin up, Joe, don't talk like that. Ignore the haters, you've been proven right, Armstrong was recalled and looked better than most when he got on the pitch.

Im just impressed at how his style of play is very polished and composed especially for a teenager. Seems to exude a confidence on the ball a lot of senior player don't even display

Lewis Miley (who is a similar type) has been playing there for Newcastle, so not a terrible idea. If we aren’t signing a right back, then I’d just be playing Patto there though tbh.

In 50 years time the ghost of Joey will be on this fine forum posting countless photos of Harrison Armstrong in his undercrackers !

Brentford had a free run through our defence for most of the match tbf

Yeah, I think Barry will come good. If people create for him, he will take chances. Can't expect him to do much when everyone passing backwards and allowing opposition to get back into shape with everyone behind the ball. Need more incisive...

He gets a really good reception in the stadium despite not playing well for half a season so it can't be that bad. People are entitled on a forum to say that he wasn't good enough yesterday despite scoring. Just like you are to suggest otherwise.
