The unfortunate reality is that Fry isn't (that) good. He's a decent Championship defender but he's nowhere near the Prem, or even really knocking on the door of top 6. McNair is a good footballer but not really a CB. Should be playing in the midfield and getting forwards. Dijksteel the worst of the 3 and unfortunately not good enough.

Our regular midfield 3 has been terrific and there are the likes of McGree and Payero who have both shown more than Siliki has. But thats just a case of not changing a winning / successful team. If you're being kept out of a successful side, there's not a much you can do about it. Especially with a manager like Wilder who likes to name the same starting XI as far as possible. Going back to my earlier post, I think even Balogun has had more game time than JLS. Point being that if you're not playing, you're not going to be match fit and its unreasonable to expect a guy who barely has any game time, to be on it in his first start since Warnock was in charge.

DevKWat 2,370 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Embarrassing is the only word. There are a few in that 11 who should be nowhere near our squad never mind starting games Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Had a bad feeling when I saw JLS and Taylor starting and been proved right tbh. Not that I blame those two players at all, but we are so bad going forward without Crooks, McGree and an attacker at LWB. Jones is a bit off colour so we just aren't scoring today.

Dynamo Kev 1,556 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 they are winning the battle. we need to be faster and stronger. they are simply first to everything. they are trying harder than us. we look like we dont like being pushed to play at this tempo. shocking stuff. howson needs to go back to his usual position and jls further forward and taylor off and connolly on. watmore and connolly off sporar with tav and jones wide. howson holding. we cannot lose today. not with a performance like this. need to change something tactically and wilder needs to sort them out. looks like the players expected and easy game. we were shell shocked and conceded to two soft goals. weak defending. terrible terrible stuff so far.

thomas 501 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I don't mind losing but this feels like Blackburn we turned up thinking we easily roll these over.....I'm not sure I want to even watch the second half, if they cba why should I? Link to post Share on other sites

Possibly, cos you'd think if it's so obvious that at least a few of the Championship clubs would base their game plans on it, and yet they don't seem to be doing it, or it just isn't actually true... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
