We aren't conceding less goals because of Rosenior's tactic of playing out from the back more than we used to do. We're conceding less because he's got the team better organised and, by & large, cut out the shambolic defending we saw earlier in the season & last.
Yes, I included Christie because there's no consistency (the post said that). He can be 'class'. He can also be poor. We get about as much of each.
Be honest, which players? Who do we have who would be nailed on starters in 'a top half side'? Seri. Tufan (who is even in & out of our side!) Oscar ... maybe. Greaves as a CB (not as a LB) ... maybe, but highly questionable. Seriously, that's about it isn't it? Kempton asks the right question in post #6 of this thread.
You could well be right Geo, but personally I think Tufan is up there too. Not easy for Tufan (or Seri) when there's such shortcomings across the park.
Tufan should be 100%, he’s just not consistant enough, he’s in and out of our side. It may or may not be because he hasn’t got the quality of players around him. However there’s a reason he plays for us and not at a higher level his international career suggests he’s capable of
Oscar gave the centre half a yard head-start, outpaced him and ended up getting hauled down for a red card. If you want to pretend Oscar is slow, why choose an example when he was demonstrably quicker than his opponent?
Consistency is elusive though and doesn't happen overnight. If you get consistency in this league you usually end up in playoffs. Fact is, there's not a lot of consistency in the championship at all which is why we're sat on 27 points with 4 other clubs and with only 6 points separating us and 10th.
N4 became really toxic in the first half today, and Blackpool had their best spell of the game then. It's something football fans really need to get a grip with. Home advantage can be huge if the support is vociferous.
Who said drop him, are you drinking again? We was talking about consistency, you said it was hard to get, we both agreee seri would get in a top 6 side because of it. You gave some long winded response in why tufan wouldn’t. I’ve simply proved seri is consistent and tufan isn’t
I didn't mention Tufan. Looks like you've been drinking. I just said that consistency is hard to find in the championship and it's what pretty much every club outside the top 4 or 6 are also looking for.
You commented on my post about tufan!!! I see you like this “drinking” comment, I’ll find you some more to borrow
I thought you were discussing seri? But it's a general point that if Tufan can find consistency he already has the ability.
That’s what I said before you gave some random reply. So after all that you’ve said the same as me, as you ask if I’m drinking
