The Sick List

I don't agree I don't think we created anything meaningful. Murphy had a few that fell to him, but it was just old school get it down the wing and cross it **** really.

League one love that they defend that crap every week but down there they have players that put them self about.

We needed to let them come on to us today... This team had not been in a situation where the other team parks the bus before and didn't know what to do..

We need more than just a striker and in fact if we don't get a cm soon I think I'm going to give up soon.

It's never ending... I've been saying we need two cms for almost a decade.

We need players everywhere. All over the park. However with the games coming up we NEED to win. To win we NEED to score and I have zero confidence in ASM as a central player, he drifts to the left he drifts to the right and when the wingers and wingbacks cross to the middle, the little divvy is stood 5 yards away from them asking why they didn't pass to him so he could showboat.

Yeah that's the thing I said in my 1st post we need cbs cms a lb and two strikers.

Imo cm is the most important area on the pitch
 
We keep going around this endless loop at nufc..

1. We're not scoring, so we need strikers
2 we're conceding too many so we but defenders

We never think let's buy two good cms and maybe both ends will improve. Which it would

There was a point today when schar got so pissed off with shelvey that he ran through midfield to show him what to do

He also went past ASM to show that ****ing divvy where a striker should stand, then lost the ball and was miles behind play when Cambridge countered.

I'm not going to do the max bashing it's been clear from the 1st time Bruce put him upfront he can't play there.

I mean ffs he's a dribbler.. He needs the ball played in front of him with players ahead of him

I really hope Schar is one who can step up and show he deserves a place in a better squad. I really like him - though he does have a clanger in him!

Yes I think he's getting pissed off with shelvey sitting right in front of him.. Schar can play that role anyway. Shelvey gets on the ****ing way then demands the ball after someone has won it.


Players don't like other players on their space.. Its like **** off I'm looking after here

Why on ****ing earth wasnt Joelinton up front is what I want to know.

Yes he’s not done well there but this was against ****ing Cambridge. At least he’s played pro football as a striker. You could then have ASM and Murphy or Fraser left and right with a midfield of Shelvey, Willock, Longstaff and we’d have won the game.

I mean I cannot understate what a clusterfuck Howe made of today. Not since Pardew and his three left backs have I seen such tactical naivety.

Howe is starting to concern me tbh.. He talks a good game and I can see some style of play unlike with Bruce, but I can't help but think he's looking after his mates... If he continues with the useless Fraser and we start bringing in dross like solanke then I'll have all the confirmation that I need.

The game on Saturday could change the mood though.. 1 win and everything will look good

Said elsewhere mate, what’s going to happen if - as looks likely, I’m afraid - Watford win? He had a ****ing open goal today and completely ****ed it.

We'll see I'm not going to draw any conclusions yet, but results haven't improved.
