2 X decent signings especially O'Brien who will bring a bit of experience and forward drive from midfield.

I still fear the lack of attacking recruitment if not sourced tomorrow will be a big issue, little creativity will equal few goals....something that has been glaringly missing from day one this season.

We need to see a good 10 and a winger at least with O'Brien and Wright.

To be fair our biggest problem right now is a side crippled with low confidence.

There is only so many times the manager can publicly throw the side under the bus and label them pathetic before that turns into belief that it is true. We all know the player Ronald was when he first came to us and when you compare that to the player yesterday who had no conviction when played clean through on two separate occasions its night and day.

The side has creative elements, but what it has lacked is a stable base that will actually release the ball at the right time and find the progressive passes so that when we do beat the press that we don't just turn around and go straight back into it.

Players like Cullen, Franco, Bianchini, Ronald and Vipotnik would turn out entirely different performances if we were actually driving forward with intent and a good tempo instead of walking football ad infinitum.
