Some of the recruits are raw and need work, some have slotted straight in and others look like they will eventually slot in to the team or squad.

Think many fans were disappointed with what we got. Only Dieng, O'Brien and Greenwood have shown they get us and have slotted in.

We have bought potential so I hope the recruitment team give MC time to work with them. Silvera and Rogers have shown they are not ready yet so MC got it wrong playing them from the off.

Managers, recruitment teams and players come and go. It's not that fans no nowt but some players take time to settle in and some just never will. We are recruiting potential bargains so it's always going to be hit and miss.

Well just got in & absoutely buzzing, reading about how good Cardiff are/have been, I was concerned going to the game, Engle was poor in his last outing, Greenwood's hardly touched the ball in the brief appearences he's made by my, both had very good games tonight

Carrick kept telling us that he's sees how good we really are in training & that it will come, I didnt expect us to be beat Southampton & we did, I ceratinly didnt expect to see us beat Watford & we were worthy winner, I didnt expect to see such a gulf between two teams at the opposie ends of the table as I did tonight, we were head & shoulders above Cardiff, they had nothing in their locker to say that theyre a good team, us on the otherhand, are slowly getting to the standard we set last season & as last season we had goalscorers, good standard players, this season we're having projects that are starting to look half decent

McGree was my MOTM, but Engle pushed him close

Fantastic win, 4 wins on the bounce, unbeaten in 5 & a cleansheet to boot, happy days

Once again, Engel's excellent play down the flank shows we're a 5-3-2 or at worst a 4-3-3 in waiting.

The lone forward role just doesn't suit the players we have imo. Coburn's far more effective running from deep - as he showed in his previous two games - rather than loitering around the pen area waiting for a ball to find him.

To give Carrick his due he got his substitutions spot on today.

We did well tonight

Wasn't a classic performance or match but we got the job done and the new lads all played well

Things went for us last night, just before our 1st goal they hit the inside of the post & the ball came back out, Jones's goal, onside, or not those decisions have been going against us this seasons, things seem to be turning in our favour

Thought the ref did ok lsst night also, in the 2nd half their No18 running towards his goal with McGree shadowing him dived to try & get a free kick, ref had none of it, then another time their keeper comes out for a corner, flaps & hit the deck, bit of a scramble in the box with Latte getting the ball stuck between his feet, ref just let the game flow, no free kick to the keeper

We won a game that was one sided, whatever their manager may have said, passed em to death & should have won by more on the night

Form team now!

I reckon they got two booked for simulation last night

The idiot at the WSL corner flag that got his two legged dive just wrong when no one was standing anywhere near him and the big plank centre half that tried an 'I'm crippled' sort of flop in front of the fourth official

Pathetic and well done to Andy Madley for having none of it
