Guest Bulgaria Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I would love some kind of reaction... ive never seen a coach/manager look so static on the touchline. He seems about as inspiring as a pint of off milk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adelphi1867 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 We had at least 3 shots on target to their 0 in the 1st half and they had to bring on two more 1st team players to better us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, and it was only that addition of Premiership quality players that made the difference. Up to then, we'd at least matched Swansea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very fair comment from JS. And it would not have been right to go for a blood and guts approach once Swansea were reinforced for the second half and the first goal was conceded , as cannot afford exhaustion and injuries in a losing cause in the Cup when league more important.

Waving arms around makes you a better manager if he puts his fist on his chest on the badge too that makes them even better everyone knows that surely?

JL also right the we had our chances first half, that was our chance, but apart from Joao we know nobody else can accept them. Still think Reach better out wide as not creative and very left footed-you can always head him off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion there are far better sides in the championship which we still have to play. That's the big worry. They were there for the taking and yet again we failed miserably.

gazzamk2 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The substitutions changed the game. Swansea had some class to change the game, we didn't. Abraham looked a different player after they came on too. How would the likes of ff or Hooper have changed our team if we could have brought them on?? Our injury situation is critical and players change games. Tough to accept but it's where we're at right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Can't be too critical of Jos, given the number of games and the threadbare squad. Two very long trips this week doesn't do us any favours either. It should be clear to him however, that some players are not up to the job. Really need to judge him when he has some first team players back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
