It’s probably more likely to be the Ipswich game. Had we won that, we’d still be in with a shout as it would have realistically pulled Norwich into things.
The only thing I think Rosie should have done is start coyle. Wednesday night confirmed slater isn’t a rb
100% agree with this. We're starting to try and make something happen now with minutes left. Sounds familiar doesn't it.
Also, it’s games like this which solidify my belief that Greaves would be a much bigger loss and harder to replace than Philogene. If there’s a hypothetical choice of keeping one and selling the other for £20 million, I’m keeping Greaves every day of the week.
Agree. He doesn't get a free pass today. I'ts been dreadful and it's his responsibility along with the players.
There’s a lack of leadership and grit in the team and it’s more obvious when Coyle is not playing. A midfield of Seri and Morton or Seri and Slater or Slater and Morton just does not work. Carvalho has spent more of this game on his arse than standing up and Philogene has been off the boil. When your big players aren’t turning up and making things happen, you rely on the less-gifted but mentally-strong players to step up and marshal the rest of the team. With Coyle on the bench, we lack that.
Well I will lay it at the managers door... today as it happens makes no difference... but lets be right here 6 other teams have fared better against this "DEFENSIVE BLOCK' and found a way. we have dropped how many points against the bottom 6. He needs to grow two and accept that he has to improve and find a way.
