I understand why you’d say this, but right now we need wins, pure and simple. And Mr ****ing Nothing rarely does anything that can help you win a game. If he is in there for his defensive display, then put a better defender and change shape to accommodate this. As one of the 10’s, he needs to be offering far more attacking intent. Watch him set up a brace now. For Jan. In our goal
The fact we've spent over £60m in January, and still line up with the same old same old, is ridiculous. Only 3 of our last 15 new signings across the previous windows are actually starting. Its a mess, being lumbered with the same old dross we've previously tried to replace.
The thing I find most bizarre about Ely is he is out of contract in the summer yet, despite having loads of other options in his position and him generally being **** every game, he’s started for 3 different managers consistently. There must be a reason why we aren’t offering him a new deal (because he’s not good enough) yet he gets in ahead of players we are tied into longer term and who aren’t much worse and possibly better
In fact isn't the sweet stall near the Chapel level crossing got a box for a £1? Buy them with the Coke as well then!! Let's see, still a long way to go for this season yet. Selles is our manager and he gets my vote. Discuss players later perhaps. Let's give these guys some confidence.
I think I've mentioned before I used to manage our village third XI so I know a bit about management and tactics. Ely and Walcott to soften them up with their physicality, Adams to smash in a couple of goals then bring A. Armstrong on at about 60 mins to finish them off. COYS.
