Midfield subs were dubious for me 21:57 - Apr 14 with 632 viewsKievthegreat

We struggled to break the press today and both Matusiwa and Neil were really poor first 60 mins (appreciate Azor might have a knock). However we've then taken both them off for attacking options and brought Nunez back on his own and looked even more lost. Surely a Taylor or Cajuste makes more sense than having Akpom and Mehmeti? The team just looks top heavy and generated nothing.

I think we also got it wrong starting Kipre who has looked suspect and not just replacing Leif with Johnson.

Obviously we still conceded 2 really cheap goals, but a bit like Scum at the weekend, had 65% possession and created nothing.

On the positive side, we're still in the driving seat.

It all seemed very desperate, like we were just throwing every attacker on and hoping for the best. We could’ve played all night and not scored, just passing it sideways and created nothing.

Huge pressure on Sunday. If we win we will be back on track.

McKenna will have clocked early in the second half that we were so abject we could play all night and get nothing, so just used the subs to minutes in the legs of players. If he wanted to properly chase the game, he would've brought Cajuste on for Hirst so we don't go 4-1-5, or even Azon earlier in the second like he usually does. He also substituted Furlong, which there would be no reason to do, other than to save him for Sunday.

Obvious in the first half we just couldn't get the ball past their midfield quick enough. Too much slow sideways and backwards passing. Either play 3 in midfield or another striker.
Really was a very poor performance.

I think the Matisuwa and Furlong subs were to avoid them getting yellows and missing the next 2 games.

Why would they get a ban? They've gone past the window for 10 yellow cards?

Matsi looked miles off it I don’t think he’s fit no coincidence that we struggle when he does, he’s so important to our system. Let’s hope he’s fit and firing on Sunday 🤞🏼

Nope, it's 15 yellows now.
