Whilst yesterday was very disappointing (again)... 10:55 - Sep 12 with 778 views | pennblue | We can only make judgements on what we see before us: - Midfield needs more competition (sorted, Carroll, Morsy, Celina) - KVY is obviously having a hard time defensively for some reason in this system. Sorted, Donacien replaced him - New goalkeeper was dodgy at start of season, goalkeeper replaced Yesterday was the first time the defence played together, and perhaps they were unfortunate to come up against a potent Bolton strike force. Not an ideal first game for them. I still think the earliest you can even begin to make fair judgements on this team is End of October. | |

Whilst yesterday was very disappointing (again)... on 12:08 - Sep 12 with 642 views | Churchman | I thought we were playing Bolton, not Man City or Chelsea. We are miles short in fitness, set up, tactics and ability in certain areas of the pitch. We are also short of heart, bottle, call it what you will. They got a hiding. They are at the bottom of the old third division and fully deserve to be there. The only judgements left to be made are on the quality of the players recruited. I’ve often said end of October, but sorry Mr Cook I don’t think we can wait that long. No more excuses. | | | |

The point I making was that problems are being addressed. But as always, it ultimately comes down to the players to decide whether they are going to become a winning group or not. For that to happen, you need enough winners in the group, who won't accept anything less. If he has not recruited the correct types, then that will be his downfall. Still too early to make any sensible judgements. [Post edited 12 Sep 2021 13:10]

Are they? If addressing the problems is being overly reliant on one midfielder, ditching one defender for supposedly not being good enough only to see his replacement perform even worse, have three goalkeepers in the squad, none of whom can dominate the penalty box and a replacement right back who has very little attacking nous when we rely on width going forwards then... yes, I guess we are. | |
