Swapping and changing the team every game has been part of the reason we are in the bottom 6. The team has to be unchanged unless there are any injury worries.

That's absolutely right. Lots of things can contribute, including the team form.

It's good to see some sensible posts on this. It could be that Haji has been told to keep his shots on target, either that or he may have decided that himself, resulting in him avoiding the corners of the goal, and keeping his shots low. And although it wasn't an assist, the first goal against...

2-0 to us. Haji to score both

Wasn't there quite a bit of interest in Wright and Simms by other clubs before we bought them?

The only problem is, there's nothing to moan about

Strange, because in the summer people were saying we wouldn't even get £10M for him because he only had 1 year left on his contract and could talk to other clubs in January.

Not the manager and recruitment team as well?

I agree with everything in this, but quite honestly some of MR's decisions this year have completely baffled me, and IMO this hasn't helped the situation. The first game of the season we made 3 substitutions in one go, 2 of which were totally untried, when we were well in control of the game. 3...

Which is very similar to how England lined up in the 1966 world cup final IIRC, except they played the system with 2 strikers, and a back 4. With Stiles DM, Charlton AM, and Peters & Ball between them.

I would definitely like to see that, whether MR will play that system is another story.

I think this is part of the problem. Some posters are trying to make comparisons with the likes of Huddersfield, QPR, and Blackburn with teams on a totally different level. We currently don't have to beat Barcelona, RM, and Man city. 7M wouldn't buy them a reserve team player

7 points from the last 3 games is not bad. A draw against Norwich wouldn't be disastrous, giving 8 from 4 games going into the break. Should be OK after that

It's more our injuries that are the problem. We have O'Hare, Allen, Palmer, Sheaf, Eccles, and Kelly still has plenty to offer. One more good signing should be enough when everyone is fit. 4 of those are / have been unavailable

We did concede 3 in 16 minutes from 3-0 up against Swansea last year. That always gives me nightmares

Scored 3 goals in 3 of those games as well

It's a real shame Haji's shot against Leicester didn't go in instead of rattling the crossbar, his goal against Middlesboro would have meant 2 goals in under an hour of championship football. It's fine margins, but what a start that would have been and would have probably enabled him to really...

Or he hasn't learnt to adjust yet. He is obviously a better player than we are seeing currently.

I know it won't happen for a while, but when MVE, Sheaf, Callum, and now Jamie Allen are in the team it's half a new team of better players. Need to be patient now this season and see what we are like in the second half.

I think this may be most of the problem, ignoring the quality of the new signings, the team has lost their togetherness due to so many new players.
