Our midfield is actually playing in front of theirs so they just pass it slide rule through the middle and by pass them Slater and Amir are not defensive and too small to do the job . Crooks is too far forward again he has no pace .

Crooks and Lundstram is the best midfield 2 we have, just a shame Lundstram is now out for a few weeks.

Oh **** off, they’ve all been ****e, but he’s genuinely **** and I’m sick of people deluding themselves he isn’t

He’s not a world beater but he’s not as bad as people like you want to make him out to be. I’m more disappointed with our defense and non-existent goalkeeper.

that's a bit embarrassing

Mate I’ve had people saying he’s integral the team and he’s a good player. He’s neither of those things, and short of this level. You’re all welcome to carry on pretending he is, but it doesn’t make it true.
 
It was Sunday league at times.

People whinge about defensive coach etc. Obviously complete valid.

But why cant professional footballers self organise. Or remember how to defend without a defensive coach.

Our xGs at half time, 0. Not surprising as shots 0 and obviously shots on target 0.

Not sure what the answer is after that ... perhaps drop Crooks back to a more defensive role, get Gelhardt into the middle behind the striker, even putting Hughes into the back 4 the mistakes he has in him wouldnt improve us much ... think the only way we stem the flow is to bring 3 on and take no fkr off !

What doesn’t work

Amir (Poor decision making, poor passing ability, slow to react)
Joseph on the left. (Offers no cover, restricting Giles going forward)
Egan & Semi (too static, we can get away with one but not both)

11 off 9 on for the second half may help us keep the score down.
