Priority in January has to be a midfielder who can actually drive the ball forward.

Sheaf, torp and Eccles just sideways merchants, offer absolutely nothing go forward.

That and somebody some decent defenders, maybe somebody who can put the ball on the back of the net up front. What I’m getting at is sack the lot and start again.

You can it now but if wright and then EMC weren’t here we’d be bottom.

I guess he could play Bassett and simms and probably will be forced to

The mistakes are so tiresome.

This passing style is pissing me off now. No urgency at all

Dovin did well cutting out that cross. Collins would have stayed on his line

It's needs a spark... one of our midfielders needs to kick someone.

But... knowing us... Sheaf will kick himself and do his hammy in the process!

You can't this season. If you remember those who wanted Robins out said they didn't mind if there wasn't any improvement with the new guy.

Even Dovin drops an unchallenged cross.
We look so fragile and fearful.

It may be time to discus the fact that Torp really doesn’t offer us anything.

You can say that about him in most away games, an utter passenger. I refer to my post earlier in the thread about flexibility.

You're obviously exercising your prerogative to be critical now - that's fair enough . I'm just attempting to apply a little context to your short term view

Dovin is doing pretty well. Far less scary than the other two.

Dovin has been out best player despite being 1-0 down. With Collins in goal, we'd be 4-0 down by now.

They are sitting on Sheaf just like Millwall did. He needs to use his brain and jog them out to no mans land and create some space through the middle. If they don't go with him he frees himself up.

What, you mean pass it forward when there's a centre-half, full back or goalkeeper available?

Get thee hence with your dangerously old fashioned ideas.

An extra man in midfield means nothing if you can't dominate a midfield or play between the lines. Better off with 2 up top, and playing more direct.

I’m asking you a question? When is it considered enough to be Lampards team that we can start being critical?

Id bring Basette on for Torp second half. Basette on the left and rudoni at the 10. We need an outlet or for cardiff to at least worry about us attacking

What's happened to our set pieces? Earlier in the season we were doing routines that had clearly been worked on.

Now we seem to have gone to hit and hope.
