Maybe resting penney, Joey and palmer didn't help, but offencivly we've been pretty consistent, reach, joao, matias with either fletcher or Nuhiu up top centrally. Since Palmer and Penney have been our full backs and more importantly Pelupessy has sat next to Bannan in midfield we have looked a totally different team. Think he knows this and probably wanted to give them all a much needed rest. Perhaps he didn't think they were that important to us. But he sure knows now after the forest game and I expect all three to play every week going forward now unless injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzy logics Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I expect us to not get relegated. I expect the manager to set a team up to win and coach and develop the squad. And for £60,000 to £100,000+ a month I expect whoever plays to be puking up when they come off the pitch from giving everything they have got.

The amount of money you pay a player doesn't (and never has) dictate how much they run around Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some players can also look lazy by their style of running even though they aren't lazy, Pogba at Manchester United has that lazy look to him.

GY-owl.4 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 1 hour ago, Not Jon Newsome said: After the predictable meltdown I'd just like to ask what fans are expecting from Jos Luhukay and this team, for me this team is a mid table side which should achieve a finish somewhere between 9th and 14th. Reasons being- 1. Jos has had no money to spend over two transfer windows now, to address the glaring issues within the squad that were not addressed during the previous 3 seasons under different management. Because of this he has bravely turned to youth players and has helped bring through two of the best young talents we've had in a long time in Thorniley and Penney. 2. Because of this lack of investment over the last 2 windows (Not the chairman's lack of wanting, I understand we have to adhere to rules) we have actually gone backwards. We are a weaker side now than when we finished 6th and 4th as other sides have strengthened and gone past us, Forest being a prime example. The stink kicked up after their team of multi million pound stars beat us was pathetic, they'll be top 6 minimum. I think it's time fans realised this is a transitional season, we are blooding youngsters who will hopefully end up being first team fixtures by the end of the season, as well as waiting for a lot of the big earners who aren't contributing what we pay them to run their contracts down, giving us more mobility in the transfer market next season. Thoughts. you could actually say the last 3 windows since we did owt to our team. as the one before was (if i remember correctly) when we bought winnall & Rhodes. and so far, between them they have brought nowt to add to the team. none of them have featured or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 We will be inconsistent and nowhere near the top six with the side that started vs Forest. However, we have picked up a base of points and I think the likes of Hooper, Winnall and Forestieri could be game changers for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiltonowl Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Excellent OP We are what we are and therefore where we are,at this present time. Most have got to admit that following Wednesday is never easy and we have hit this financial problem to often in the past. I dont enjoy the off field activities in football anymore,money as spoilt the game full stop. But as a fan/supporter of the club,i go and enjoy the match day experience,as much as i can,without the feeling that we should win every game. My only hopes for this season is that who ever wears our shirt gives 100% ,and we do not get embroiled in a relagation fright.yes fright! No way will we be a top 6 team,but i hope we can finish nearer 6th than 14th. I support my team not the board or whoever pulls the purse strings,remind me of politicians,want your vote but dont care after. Uto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
