    Mikael Mandron is playing for them? Who else remembers him?? He was once highly rated for us but never made it

    That Leicester u 21 side had 3 FULL internationals. Leicester themselves are a top 6 side and the team they put will be training with the first team.We put out a team of stiffs. What were people seriously expecting?
    All the weeping and wailing, gnashing of teeth about being beat by a far superior side in a worthless comp is bewildering

    Can only think that in training he looks the business, from the clips I've seen of him he's a cracking finisher. In training. On match day he's like the ghost of Will Grigg.

    It's all about confidence I suppose - he's not going to build that up sat on the bench. If McNulty starts scoring or creating goals after coming on and Grigg continues to miss sitters - then drop him.
    It's all about timing - how many games does he get to sort it out.

    I remember him, was well thought of at one time, but lost his way and moved on. He will be out to show we made a mistake, but the big one has been his opposite number imo, wonder which one lasts the 90 mins. today.

    Hed have probably made the grade if it was now. We were a Premiership team when he was with us.
    Just another depressing reminder of how much weve fallen

    He's been to a good few clubs already and not quite made it. He played 3 times for us, all as a sub - 24 minutes in total.
    Looks like he's making his debut today so he's bound to score :bandit:
