Makes complete sense given how we played at Liverpool.

Good to see Taylor on the bench though, although Delcroix did well last time and it should be his to lose.

We did play well, but would you really still be starting Amdouni now?

Delcroix chosen ahead of a fit again Taylor.

Hard day for any left back in the premier league against Saka.

Messango out of squad again, see another lucky dip sub selection

Amdouni was very good first half at Anfield and set up Fofana’s chance in the second.

He’s weak and frustrates me tbh, but with Lyle out I don’t see a second striker option better than him.

That’ll be to accommodate Taylor, so I wouldn’t call it’ll lucky dip tbh.

Trusted him last week to get minutes not Cullen but Cullen gets the nod today, unless he's injured I'm baffled

Starts for Trafford, Ramsey and Amdouni. Might as well give up. Oh I forgot we have. They can all have a stinker and be shoe ins for next week.

I don't agree he was very good. He had a couple of decent touches, but mostly anonymous. He offers no support to the midelfield and that's the issue. In games like this we have players like Brownhill and JBG who can play that role, not to mention that is supposed to be Ramsey's best position.

He was excellent first half not just good, the team were excellent first half too. Again here you are with your agenda against our most creative player

We are embarrassingly bad

criminalclaret · Post by **criminalclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:08 pm

I've said it before (and will again). Have no idea how the best centre back of his generation in the Premier League cannot set our defence out.

Genuinely baffling

Sure there were two lads casually jogging in behind him. There is no urgency or desire from some of the team. It's killing us, along with VKs refusal to change it.

Simple. He was a brilliant footballer but not a clue when it comes to coaching and managing.

He'll take us into league 1 if Pace remains convinced he's a brilliant talent who will take us to new heights.

It might have been offside, but that was very well done by Trafford on Trossard.

Think it was more the two central midfielders not having the awareness, both went into the same space.

I am just highlighting the lack of urgency and desire, not who was at fault, as you are probably correct.

We just look so.... Gormless? Casual? It's as if he doesn't believe in defence, that the "score more than you concede" mentality will get over the line. Apart from the fact we ship 2/3 a game and have barely muster more than 1 in return.

What a fall from grace after the highs of last year.
