😊 🫖☕

You are right about reasons to be cheerful. Very happy watching the team win and seeing the players showing so much joy 😊

My theory about Deansmith isn't so much that it's 'clicking' for him now, more like he's throwing lots of things at it and some are sticking. Also, we're benefitting from the 5 sub rule and a strong bench. The moments when it works, I love - those super quick passes for the goal vs Sunderland, the resilience shown last night for example... but there are times when I still find it frustrating and dull.

Ah well! Good luck to him and fingers crossed it'll be exciting to see things developing over the season. This is what I'd hoped for.

Also glad Daniel's made a good start 🥰

        Yes. One is raising a glass of Vodka to him. But a day off maybe tricky atm :-) (n/m) (NCFC) - munter, Aug 31, 12:27:42
        
        And you wouldn't want him in your game either (NCFC) - paulg, Aug 31, 12:31:29

        Hope Foulger has his filthy lucre banked (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Aug 31, 10:34:06
- It’s very harsh on Sarge, but ultimately yes he has. I just think his pace gives us more (NCFC) - DH Yellow, Aug 31, 10:27:35
  - His pace had us so much to start the season through the Hull game (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Aug 31, 10:35:17
    - Terribly worded (n/m) (NCFC) - Dave in France, Aug 31, 10:42:08
      - His pace had given us so much to start the season through to the Hull game (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Aug 31, 10:44:42
  - but at this level, the extra pace is a bigger advantage in the last 30 minutes (NCFC) - Dave in France, Aug 31, 10:33:42
    - Maybe. Sarge has been used from the bench too though, when we’ve played ‘longer’ (n/m) (NCFC) - DH Yellow, Aug 31, 10:34:59
- Yep not sustainable to keep him on the bench (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 31, 10:23:48
  - So if we sell him he will be on the bench? (NCFC) - usacanary, Aug 31, 12:15:29
- Smith doesn’t tend to play 2 up and Sarge is better through the middle (NCFC) - Knitted Jesus, Aug 31, 10:22:26
