Johnson and both CB’s very poor on 16:39 - Oct 5 with 5582 views | gtsb1966 | Johnson isn't very good nor is O'Shea and Muric is an accident waiting to happen but because KM wanted them it's OK. KM hasn't done much wrong ,if anything, since he has been here apart from wasting good money on 2 of those 3 signings. All 3 of them aren't good enough . |  | |  |

Been at bit of a mixed bag of signings so far. O’Shea, Ogbene I’m not really sure why we signed them, Phillips & Muric have blown hot and cold, Greaves mostly solid, and Delap the only real stand out performer. I’m probably being overly harsh because I’d prefer we give the opportunities to the players that have got us here, Woolfenden, Burgess, Chaplin, etc but I’m not sure those who have taken their places have shown they should stay there on merit yet.

You can’t judge the comparison because this standard is streets above where we’ve come from. |  | |  |

O' Shea and Ogbene seem to have been bought for pace stats. |  |

Tuanzebe and Woolfenden both started Premier League games and have looked better than Johnson or O'Shea. So opposition standards don't come into it with them. |  |

Replying to myself but I don't think Greaves has looked as assured since O'Shea came in either. |  |

Johnson and both CB’s very poor on 16:55 - Oct 5 with 5032 views | LankHenners | Think Greaves has looked alright but as a unit we look a bit shaky and seem to get a bit deer in headlights when the other team comes at us with pace. Obviously we did ok against Brighton and looked solid but think in that game we were more set in and conceded that we had to do that almost all game. Today we were trying to impose ourselves a bit more but made too many mistakes, lost possession too easily etc. and had them running at us when we weren't set up in a defensive block so they cut through too easily. |  |

I was following Town but can't remember - who did Taricco replace? Did he still appear an upgrade despite his early issues? |  |

The only thing I would say in Johnson's defence is it was his first game at right back with a new unit next to him. With the extra emotions of playing against his childhood team, maybe it was a bit too much. I think Muric is who he is and, frankly, I'd feel more comfortable with Walton there at this stage. I won't say anything more on O'Shea as everyone knows my views already. |  |

I agree. Yes, the players were wanted by McKenna but Muric and Johnson are getting plenty of criticism despite this. O'Shea is being given breathing space by most (not all) because of who he isn't rather than is - though any criticism he is getting is those who liked Woolfenden making negative comparisons between the two. |  |
