Tbf to the lad it's his first start and he didnt do bad last season, give him the benefit of the doubt
There left footed player on the corners doesn't half know how to whip a ball in too, they look extremely dangerous from corners every time he takes one.
He was constantly positionally poor last year & a lot his eye catching defending was making up for that. He's looked woeful today
Just doesn’t instill confidence. Reminds me a lot of Kamikaze Zayatte. How can a centre forward be left completely free from a set piece? Who’s man was he?
Still not sure what Shota's tactics are tbh, lots of passing across the back 3 then hoof it long ? First and only time we get on the ball and play football we score.
Absolute ****…. Used up some of my “ can I watch footie instead of you watching soaps “ points, terrible at the back, not a great deal better up front. Why the **** is covil up top ?? Can someone explain…. Please
Well I think we can see which of the fringe players are not good enough. Time to bring on the big guns at the start of the second half. Please don’t make the substitutions too late Shota. I feel bad for all those who have travelled if we don’t go for this now. We were clearly the better side until complacency and stupid passing around the back let them back into the game!
I feel for Covil, it was tough for him Saturday and it's been a tough outing for him today as well. He's a young kid but it seems a bit rushed now. The difference between some of the starters and the rest is pretty stark. Cannon tries hard but isn't technical enough, Williams is a speed boat without a driver and also lacks skill. We starve Allahyar of the ball (I still don't know what his best position is)
Don’t mean to pick on the lad but why is Covil in the first team again? I’m not convinced he’s ready or good enough; is he any better than Jarvis or Hinds? I don’t think so.
