Bit OTT about the full backs mind given our defensive record. I’ve been quite consistent in my views with regards to the full-backs. Probably as important a position as there is in the modern game as there is a necessity for them to create as well as defend. I just don’t feel ours offer enough going forward but both Palmer and Fox have performed better over the last 12 months particularly defensively as our defensive record shows as you said.

Simply not true, just cos Liverpool have some very effective full backs doesn't mean it's the most important position now, and even less so in our division.

Especially Nuhiu, Pelupessy, Atdhe, Winnall, Big Dave, Palmer, Nuhiu, Murphy, Nuhiu, Rhodes. No where near good enough. 1 Just a bloke.

Worst fullbacks in the division. Worst strikers (Fletcher aside) in the division. Most injury faking frauds in the division. Monk has performed a miracle so far. This squad genuinely reeks. we do need an additional improvement in the strikeforce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to be wise after the event and call people out. Why didn’t you do it at the time? Hate posts like this. Yesterday was ONE game. Just remind me again how many points these puśśies have thrown away from winning positions this season? It still needs ripping up. And everyone of the posters you’ve called out are right and have a point. One victory doesn’t make up for consistently bottling it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were 6th and we've just beaten Brighton away in the cup. If you want to look stupid carry on mate. What does ' it needs ripping up' mean exactly? And if you were bothered to look I did a thread on not overreacting to defeats or victories. Edited January 12, 2020 by Peacenocchio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 The same players that regularly bottled it will do it again. They still need to go. The same players injured/still on their Xmas hols still need to go. A great win doesn't change that. Sorry Fluffies. Monk knows this and will boot them at the first opportunity.

I’ve been raging after matches and performances in the past but I always stop mesen posting when I’m angry because you can guarantee players will make you look a fool with a great performance in the next match. I think most of em do their best. They probably have games where crowds on at em and they might think F@@k this!! someone else said on here they’re only human so if their performance drops that’s probably why... if they were more consistent I suppose they wouldn’t be championship players and they’d be higher up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with this to a certain extent. We certainly can't trust this team but it seems one positive over the season has been the performances of the back 5. I do worry that we will continue to struggle at home for the rest of the season given our lack of ability to play on the front foot for long periods of time. I think two forward players are needed to rectify this. On the plus side, when was the last time we racked up 6 away wins by early Jan? I always think if you can get to 10 away wins in a season you have got a great chance of the play offs, even if they home form is patchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue is with the manner of some of the defeats, and the fact some players have just been here too long, and not delivered when it really matters. They are on huge wages too, which has contributed to our financial mess, and is holding us back improving the squad. Monk and DC to deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep but I don't think we will even begin to sort this mess until the summer. It will be a new look wednesday in August regardless of what division we are in. It is going to be so difficult to offload in Jan, it would be a minor miracle if we could ship out both Winnall and Rhodes and somehow bring in two. What we do need is a convincing performance at home or preferably a run of them. This will get the feelgood factor back and create some momentum. This is why Kieran Lee is so important in the short term, can he work with Bannan & Luongo to put us firmly on the front foot against average teams at home??

sherlyegg Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Seen quite a few howlers and couple of good 'uns... But even with the howlers we have the 4th / 5th best GD, (clear of the chasing pack in that dept.) in the league, we have proved we can beat the 'top clubs' That hasn't been the case previous, even in our best two CC seasons.... So you never know what lies ahead.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
