There's a piece in The Athletic today about how some of the players need to realise, they weren't just playing for their place in the SF, they were playing for their futures at the club.

I think there's a real desire for a major overhaul in playing staff this summer.

It will be much needed too. There are 4 of the senior squad I'd like to see moved on but we are full of academy grads with little to no experience so all up we could be in need of at least 8 players coming in. Seems like we've been saying this for an eternity and my expectations are lower than than low that it will happen.
 
Can somebody please explain to me how we have gone from a decent defensive team at the end of last season and the first 12 games of this season to a very bad one? Is it all about teams understanding how we play and come up with tactics to counter it or what?

It’s because man for man we don’t have a great team/squad so we have to work harder than the other team and play well as a team and when we don’t we lose. Ralph got us batting above our average before and now we aren’t

Improved effort will show v Leicester by may not be enough. But it’s a semi final so COYR

Why not? He's available on a free transfer and has looked decent for the most part.

Has he though? I’d say the opposite that he has looked decent occasionally but in the main looked poor.

He has never been a great player IMO, relying on his pace and he seems to have lost a fair bit of that aswell. On a free he could be ok due to us being skint, wages dependent, but if possible I’d rather sign someone else

Is this the transfer rumours thread?
