I think 3 at the back has to go. Its been very close to working in terms of results and league table but teams worked it out ages ago. Change of formation needed.
As did McFadzean theres plenty of room for all these players being mentioned if only we had someone picking the team realise that power, flanagan maguire graham et al are dragging the cub down to their level, rock bottom.
I agree about playing Sanderson but O'Nien is in no way to blame for our ****e run. He's played consistently well despite being out of position, one of the few bright points of the season. You can see why people don't rate Grigg seeing as he hasn't scored for 17 years but yeah he did well today and we looked better with two up top, unsurprisingly.
I have always wanted him to get a run in the team further forward. The most recent managers in charge seem to think others are better. He would be in my 1st 11 every time.
league two here we come now, a bunch of sidewards, backwards twats shooting wide and garbage i am at the end of my tether now, get the season closed down now for gods sake, and i am never going back now, i hate to say that. They better keep in hiding from now on how they have the nerve to put a SAFC shirt on is pathetic.
Have to agree to disagree. I can’t blame a manager, in his first ever game after 2 days in charge, when his team, who were by far the better side (even though we were ****e) when the players don’t get a kick up the arse from going behind. When the players needed to stand up, they simply looked beaten. If Parkinson had been there, I’d have blamed him. In fact, I might still blame him. The team just looks shot.
I did rate Jones but tbh Conor McLaughlin is a better finisher on the deck. We need a big and capable lad (two ideally) like Kenwyne so we can start making use of our strength down the wings.
Their goal. Naff shot, w*nk non save but the difference. Their player took a chance and anticipated a possible error. Our 3 defenders rooted to the ground. No effing movement at all. Thicker than 2 f*cking thick things stuck together.
This is the current top 6 in the Championship, is SAFC inferior to any of these clubs ... ... at least one will be playing in the PL, next season, with gates of less than 20,000. None will get 40,000 on Boxing Day. 1 Norwich 14 7 28 2 Bournemouth 15 8 27 3 Bristol City 15 4 27 4 Watford 14 8 26 5 Swansea 14 8 26 6 Reading 14 5 26
It should never be played at home that's for sure, we have not got players versatile enough to change the formation as required, but with 5 subs allowed the bench should be used to do this, but we need a tactician on the sidelines instead of the brain dead clones we've had and still got judging by this shockingly inadequate performance.
That's why he should have mixed it up and the blame lies with him, Parky's team was shot and he just repeated it in blind hope. Some credit to him for changing formation and some decent subs though.
Whilst I completely agree, it’s the “modern” formation!!its what we’ve trained for since the close season and, to be honest, it’s worked defensively for the most part. Sure we have the joint best defence or pretty close! It just hampers us going forward. Hope the new boss brings in some worthwhile ideas!
I have never been in charge for two seconds but knew that was a terrible team to pick under the circumstances and so did most supporters, there are no excuses for Taylor here he is obviously not up to the job of caretaker on that showing. Abysmal is the only word.
