SzilardNemethsCurtains 3,907 4.4k Posted February 14, 2024 Share Posted February 14, 2024 I can't believe how easy we are to score against, honestly feel like we could lose every game we play at the minute because the opposition look like scoring with every attack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preston were awful, and it wasn't because we made them look bad, they were just garbage tonight. I think his point is we’re not far short of being one of them 5th-8th teams. If we want to go the extra step and be a 1st-4th team however… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we all knew this was going to happen when we 'ever signed a striker or a winger in janaury so the season has gone despite us being in a great postion at the start of janaury. They simply has been no ambition like they was last year to get us promoted and it's not even due to a lack of funds with Rogers money we should of signed 3 or 4 players really Agree with this - if you take your chances you build confidence. Everything becomes easier including defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many in my opinion. We have some decent attacking players, a good keeper and then that's where we start struggling. Awful defensively, weak midfield and no striker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locoman1958 105 128 Posted February 14, 2024 Share Posted February 14, 2024 Perhaps if we stopped continuously playing out from the back when we clearly don't have the players skilful enough to do it might help, most of our goals against must come from sloppy passing and playing ourselves into trouble, its getting very repetitive, we also slow it down passing across the back allowing the opposition to get back and into shape, we need to speed it up, thought Azaz played well, Hackney well off it.

thomas 612 2.7k Posted February 14, 2024 Share Posted February 14, 2024 (edited) I'm pretty furious atm, dunno who annoys me more Carrick for refusing to change, recruitment team for not delivering the players Carrick needed to do what he did last season/Gibson for not investing when he knew we were close last season or the players sloppiness at the back every week.

We need more than two players to get close to where we are aiming to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will fall short by about 8 to 10pts imo and lack of goals will cost us which we all knew at the start of the season would cost us I was concerned straight after 31st August when the window shut. Can't understand the frustration towards Scott when he's just made us significant profit on a 6month signing On paper next season Dieng New rb vdb fry/lenihhan bangura New Defensive cm hackeney Jones/forss azaz new attacker Lath/New striker I don't think a massive rebuild is required but we need at least 4 quality signings in the above positions.
