    If we were getting additions for additions sake they would have been in by now

    We are not looking naive
    We dont give a **** about the score

    This is an extended training session to condition and play the system more

    Greaves would’ve been perfect for the way Tim plays, shame we never got to see it. I listened to the 1904 podcast with the 2 assistants, one said the way they play is most difficult for the centre backs and you can definitely see that. Jones I think could probably step up, but I’d be targeting 2 additions because any injuries and I think we’d struggle with McLoughlin/Smith

    I think that's a bit unfair, the Mourinho way certainly prevented us from creating much but his teams don't go out to completely surrender the ball and certainly not to Championship sides. We did that to them.

    Oh I don't care about the score, they're better players and further on fitness wise.

    But we've been easily suckered punched despite working it out to decent areas and we've not really threatened. Omur has looked lively but no real end product apart from 1 back stick crosses that just missed it's intended target.

    We wont threaten with this lineup
    We badly need signings
    But the foundations are there

    We will be far far fitter in a few weeks

    Agreed. We have looked naive though. Perhaps to be expected just weeks into a new system.

    I don’t give a **** what we look like playing a bunch of Turks.

    Play like that against decent opposition in the English second tier and we will get torn apart.

    The naivety of the leadership is truly gobsmacking.

    We’ve worked it into good crossing positions but have Longman in the box to aim at. Swap the 2 strikers and we’d look a lot different

    Id perhaps agree if the crosses had actually got near him.

    There's a lot to like in build up and we currently lack the cutting edge right now. A bit suspect defensively but I dont think we'd get torn apart with good additions

    With this Walterball style, I think Oscar could really thrive and get a decent amount of goals for us.

    This is the sort of thing I worry about under this new style of play. It may look good o the eye but I'd rather have a left winger putting crosses in from the left then a right full back.
    This interchange of position can look good but what about when it gets broken down and you need to defend but everybody is in the wrong position

    I’ve seen enough to not want Jacob starting ever again

    Really?

    Within 45 seconds of the second half we go three down.

    Shambles.

    Jacobs got torn a new one by their winger for the 3rd goal.
