My favourite bit was when my screen went blank.

Bugger, I missed that bit, I'll have to pay more attention in the 2nd half.

Ask for a refund.

 

[scorcher]

So we do we go back to 5-3-2?

I think we should ,this looks shambolic and its hard work watching it.

What is our plan? Try and sponge a goal and pray?

 

[monmouth]

In all seriousness, just for a moment, as there's no point in staying serious, there really are no words are there?

Leon said it at about 30 minutes, we have to be braver on the ball to sidestep a man to open a passing angle and play it through the lines. Cooper has strangled such creativity out of us though, it's always safety first, so many times in past month or so we have had a throw in or free kick near the area only to end up passing it right the way back to centre halves or the keeper.

Whittaker has made some great runs into space but no one will pick their heads up and see the pass.

Apologies to those who's day I've spoilt so far by watching the game on the links I put up........ :shock: :shock:

Yep. Why change the plan 39 games in.

Awful.

But despite the cries of Cooper out etc, I can’t see a formation he could use that makes those players look anything other than slow footed and lacking in ability.

There isn’t a player in this team that would get into the promotion team. Not one. Anywhere near it. Not even in contention. In any formation. So what does he do?

Ayew the second time round has to be one of the worst signings we’ve ever made. A £20m fee, £80k a week and absolutely dreadful impact on our play. Everything stops with him.

I actually think we would do better with 10 men than with 11 with Lowe on the pitch. Every pass to him wasted at best, and at worst leaves us compromised as he loses possession when we are attacking.

Shouldn’t have hired him then.

Our midfield simply doesn’t have the ability to do it.

None of them. Nor do the full backs.

So we do we go back to 5-3-2?

4 4 2

Naughton Cabango Bennett Manning
Fulton Dhanda Hourihane Routledge

He could have tried to coach them in the two years he's been here Lisa? That is his job, after all. He has no excuses. None.

I’d keep Lowe on before Ayew.
