We are not looking good based on our first half and we probably need some changes, but is Gerhard on the same page as us?
Maybe time to try Sincs out wide right in place of Sykes. Try and get at them with pace and power, then bring in Fally at some point. I think he’d have buried some of the misses we saw first half
For those that still don’t rate Vyner, you see what he brings to the team this afternoon with his versatility. He’s had to go to LCB now as Struber knows, like most of us, that Dickie can’t play anywhere but in the middle of the 3.
Why are we so reluctant to shoot from the edge of the box… We almost always pass it back or square when a shooting opportunity presents itself. Last season some called it ‘Manningball’, what’s the excuse this season?
That's enough for me and City as we give up the usual late goal. We looked lost today and Oxford went for it and we capitulated by playing our old football and we paid dearly. My concern going forward after this poor performance is if we can't beat the supposed lower teams how can we compete with the top clubs consistently? Onwards is the answer to these kinds of outings and we have to leave the deposed unbeaten in Gerhard's capable hands.
Fair play to Oxford, they turned up big today. We had far too many poor performers today, Dickie, McCrorie, Knight, Sykes, Twine, Riis were all very poor today.
Oh City - why do I torture myself with hope and expectation, only to be let down time after time. Like taking a cheating partner back time and again after they promise to be true. It messes with one’s soul.
When city play well it's really good..when we're not on our game we are shocking.. Randell, Mehmeti and Vyner ok..the rest pretty awful Take nothing away from Oxford..showed no fear..wanted it more than we did
