I'm sick of saying how poor we are down the left, been like that for weeks, in fact months and hasn't been sorted out.

Commentators are obsessed with the idea of a footrace between McFadzean and Armstrong.

Well let's have it then. Footrace decides the 3 points.

The footrace is over 30 kilometres and McFadzean can get a piggy back from O'Hare. 3 points is in the bag.

It’s a bit of a pre requisite and if you were looking at today’s game surely biamou has done more than Walker???
Click to expand...

No it isn’t at all. If walker started to run back youd bollkck him he’s a player whose only ever going to give you goals and chances if you use that. Sorry biamou is rubbish Walker has scored what 6 goals? Biamou has scored 1 in 17? I don’t care about chasing down keepers or running back to defend. We are creating nothing and we will slip out this league if we are not careful

Well in the game but stupid mistake costs us... Broken fucking record...

As expected, Kelly & James just too similar & James particularly been disappointing. Sheaf should have started.

O'Hare & either Hamer or Sheaf on at half-time for Shipley & James please.

Premier league footballer who can't consistently beat the first man from set pieces.

Embarrassing.

These have to go in the summer if we stay up

Shipley
Hyam
James ( don’t sign him)
McCallum (not ours anyway)
McFadz (Too old now)
Biamou - can be 4th choice striker at best
Allen
Baka

Absolutely 0 pace in our side too which is part of the reason we're getting caught on the counter so easily. Kelly, James, Shipley, Hyam, McFadz, Biamou are actually slow. Dabo, McCallum, Walker, Ostigard average.

After a blistering first 10 minutes that was abject. Strikes on opposite sides of the pitch, no link between midfield and forwards, long ball into Biamou who got worse as the the half progressed.

i love Kelly but he doesn't suit defending the counter attack. Hamer for Kelly, Gyokeres for Biamou, Ohare for Shipley, Rose for Hyam please.

Could really do with a draw here. Come on city. Dabo looks good and osti having an excellent game

Kelly doing what Kelly does and McCallum doing ok.

Not looking like scoring though so that’s unfortunate

And what has he done with them?

More than Walker has done. Anyway my post was more about how anonymous Walker and Shipley have been.

Walker is a better striker but he has to offer more in general play.

The thing with Shippers this season is that he seems to be playing shadow football when the opposition have the ball. Needs to influence the game, as is obvious and difficult to believe O'Hare won't be on for a good chunk of the second half, as they are average. I think Max is having a better game than Walker (in terms of involvement) for what it's worth, although they are different type players.

Just think resting both Hamer and O'Hare at the same time is a mistake. Whilst they both need a rest, they're our two most creative players.

The thing that annoys me about Shipley is that he must be aware he isn’t good enough. If that was the case you would work hard to make yourself as fit as possible so you were at least an asset on the pitch. He’s a passenger every time he plays.

100% agree

All this one of our own bullshit. He's laughing to the bank. Hell take the good fays when theyncome but he wont bust his ass to make a bad day into a goodnday

It is lack of pace. Mowbray made the switch early and we can’t cope. We are incredibly slow

The most irritating part of that, the whole team look disinterested.

Everybody looks like they're jogging.

Biamou being the only exception.

frist 10 the midfield pushed up and kept pressure. Then they all sat back.

Forgot Shipley was playing.


Playing a team who have not won in 5 and cant even get our strikers involved

we're playing a poor team devoid of confidence and we've let them grow into the game and get a lead on us, shambolic.

I love hyam but even I'm fucked off with that today. Why hasn't MR rested him once? It's bad management to keep a player out there who's off form like he is. He looks like he's got lead in his boots!

I'm gonna repeat my Shipley anger. Wtf is he playing at. He was blowing after 6 mins.

O hare on
Hamer on

I think there's literally just 2 persons who think Walkers having a better game than Max. Lol.

But in saying that when if walker gets half a sniff he will put it away. Hopefully.
