Not our best display but we won. Thought we were a bit half arsed in our passing and kept putting each other in trouble. I wouldn’t want to see that starting 11 too often especially the back 4. Palmer had to come off - he’s too often very ineffective. On the positives we’ve scored two goals...
I’m at the point now where I trust the judgment of Austin/Viveash/Robins. If they tell Doug to go and get someone they must have seen something - good enough for me.
I’m fairly sure no one hates the players. But it’s valid to have an opinion on their ability. Having said that I don’t think you can get too critical off the back of a 4-1. The games v Wednesday actually demonstrate the gulf we have between lower end teams - that’s huge progress.
if you narrow the chasm it’s an interesting question. For example who is the better striker Quinn or Regis. One would get a lot more goals. Or more recently a Godden or a Biamou
Stats will just never, ever, enable you to identify who is the better striker. It can’t for any position but that one in particular is especially nuanced.
