So Rosy’s given his post-match interview. Did anyone ask him why Óscar was absent entirely despite there being zero mention of injury or illness in the week? With Pelkas, we at least heard he was suffering from suspected food poisoning from Greece during the international break.
Ankle injury for Oscar. Obviously wanted to keep it quiet. Hoping Oscar will be available for Sunlan game on Good Friday
As for the game itself, that was 90 minutes I won't get back! Very forgettable game and we all know where our weakness is - we simply are not clinical enough. By an large been our problem all season
Surely it's a similar situation to Shota. Give him the first 10 and see where we are. He's a young gaffer so was always going to need time. If we wanted instant success we should have gone elsewhere
What I said was 'but you choose not to read' is that something like that should have been the plan for the reasons stated. You wont like ive shown that two teams which are quite parallel to city can do it and have done it...!!!
He put Vaughan on the bench but he’s a midfielder. If he’s willing to put under-21s on the bench in our last few games, why not a striker when we have zero senior fit strikers? There must be strikers in the under-21s that he could’ve put on the bench today and given a few minutes.
Totally with you. People are reacting to recent form, not todays performance. We missed 3 absolute clear cut sitters today and had another good 5 or 6 dangerous opportunities you’d expect to score a few from. Could easily have been a 5-0 and it wouldn’t have flattered us. Much like when we beat Spurs away in our first ever premier league season, we wouldn’t have had much to complain about if they’d absolutely panned us. Sometimes that’s just the way it is. We should have won comfortably today.
A top 10 season next year would be fine and more progression. I think top 6 is possible next year but there's a lot of recruitment needed
We have that many every ****ing home game, with the same nett result (actually shouldn't say net) one or maybe two on ****ing target... they're professional footballers , its what they get paid to do. All this bollocks about unlucky!!! "the harder I work, the luckier I get!!!!!!"
Seems to me Rosie’s childhood dream of being a manager was wearing his smart outfit and splitting the centre backs with seri receiving the ball. Beyond that it’s pie in the sky.
Without major changes, we've no chance of top 6 next season. Just look at the teams currently up there and the teams potentially coming down.... We are absolutely miles away.
Acun is buying shelbourne is he not He wants a football group involving many clubs A system A certain philosophy of playing So with good recruitment, many managers we target should be able to utilize our squad next season should rosie leave for whatever reason Today was frustrating But we were in control We are playing better in most games We are not getting turned over We are not scoring, big problem but one i believe is fixable A problem is our wingers Allayhar and malcolm are both very raw Which is expected.. 19 odd year old wingers who are the complete package are called messi We are too disjointed and unbalanced, horrendous recruitment overall Its ridiculous to be talking about getting rid of rosie for drawing too many games after half a season
The one thing that constantly gets me is we line up almost every game with a team that would perfectly suit a Allardyce/Bruce type hoofball game yet try to get them to play a patient, possession based passing game. I often see our team sheet and feel like Rosey is taking a rally car out onto a GT course.
I also dont think its a coincidence our best signings this season Are players who have played in the championship/england for a few years
When I saw our line up I thought "We'll be lucky to get nil" and so it proved. Our "front 3" had scored a total of 16 goals in the EFL and weren't helped by playing in different post codes. We could have swapped Longman & Allahyar over to cause them problems but didn't. We looked like we didn't have a clue. Not impressed, I doubt we got many converts from new fans.
Never really looked in danger, but god it's so safe and boring at times. Why play short out from the back on 80 minutes against 10 men? Alfie Jones - cmon man, make a decision.
It’s not in him. Think about it..our squad it what it is, If any player doesn’t have what’s needed the only reason they are in the side is because we ain’t got no **** else to replace them. Now…fffs..Deal with it and let every **** drink in peace guv. Allam’s GONE.
the reason we aren't shipping goals any more is because we don't have Greaves and Figs at the back - they are both a liability
