PoohBear 1,066 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Hmm. Not sure how our squad got to this state that we are playing a centre midfielder upfront and a left back as a centre half. Sakala is quite basic and can't be in our starting line up, he's not good enough. How many more seasons do Davis and McGregor have? Why is Barasic so crap now? Kent has all the ability in the world but why can't he ever seem to penetrate defences? Or why doesn't he do it often enough? We have some tremendous players too of course, Lundstrum fast becoming one against all odds. Tav, Jack, Morelos, Aribo... but it feels like we are at a crossroads and need a serious rebuild. Amazing that we are in the Europa League semi, if we can go all the way it would be a fantastic opportunity to rebuild. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uilleam 5,393 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Worryingly, there is no one on the bench who could turn this around - if there was, he would have started. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really biting us on the arse now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,114 Posted May 1, 2022 Author Share Posted May 1, 2022 We did fine up until their goal but the lack of presence in attack was stark too often. We then lose a dreadful goal where their winger takes an identical chance ours spurned. Still well in the game but we really need to show more composure up front if we're to create and score goals. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are down to bare bones and that's down to not investing - simples Was commenting on the state of our squad, not the state of the performance / game.

BlackSocksRedTops 3,466 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) Considering our starting personnel I thought we did ok. Is it worth trying Itten on for Sakala and Aribo out right? We've had some decent possession but it's evident we are missing a front line. Sakala is not good enough.
