Yeah I get we may not have ideal subs but we have to start changing it up earlier. If we go with same team second half we will be 2-0 down before 60.

Rudi back in the middle, BTA and Norm on.

Can't wait to see if we're winning on xG, it's the only stat that matters

Why do you have a weird hard-on for knocking it? Like Tommo with Bassette

I would be surprised if you told me our xG was higher than Cardiff in that half.

Only positive is Dovin. Sakamoto and Torp have to come off. Got to go with Simms and Bassette up top. How do we relentlessly end up with the ball in our back 4.

Yes they were. Since Wolves we were conceding 2 or 3 goals every game. Even Birmingham stuffed us 3.0

Since Wolves?

so not the majority of the season then

We have played 5 of the bottom 4 in the last 8 games , irrespective of haji wright's fitness who btw only started 31 games last season so the club can function without him .. we should be doing better here today

If Wright has any sense about him, he'll be leaving this bunch of cunts behind this window.

He hasn’t been horrendous, but also there isn’t really much difference between playing him or Bassette.

Yes there is, Simms has held the ball up and tried to play his teammates in but nobody is making runs and when they do they're fucking it up. Sakamoto, Eccles and Torp are bang out of form and need dropping but we have no options. I'd like to see Norm on WITH Simms as he'd make runs

Has to change the shape.
Simms Bassette 2 up top.
Sakamoto off, Allen on.
Rudoni as a 10 behind front 2.

You can disagree all you want , we lost 4-1 to a team who were bottom of the league and had the worst home record in the league , that's as bad as it's been all season end of story

Sheaf is useless. I can only think that the only reason he still has the armband is that we are getting someone in who will be made skipper straight away.

why wouldn’t you just bring Rapha on the right?

Huh, thought he was left footed for some reason. Just looked and he’s right footed.
So yeah, Rapha on the right would make the most sense.

Lads you all wanted Robins out and you need to own your decisions, this is fucking rubbish
Click to expand...
Frank is getting as much out of this shower of shit as MR did.

The issue isn't the manager. It's the "deck"

We need to have a very busy January transfer window, with plenty of outs, as well as ins!

But... I've been saying for a while now, we need 2 up front, get Sakamoto and Torp off, and bring Allen and Bassette on, and Rapha surely needs a run out, if he can't get game time now he may as well fuck off.

I hope Lampard can give bollockings as that was totally unacceptable
Click to expand...
I don’t think he can, he doesn’t seem the type.

Robins seemed the type who would be more “I’m disappointed in you”

Ade was the type to kick benches about and stamp on iPhones.

Torp off.

I wonder if there is any resale value abroad for him.

Just does not cut it in this league.

Time for Doug to get his wallet out
2 new centre backs
Left back
Back up right back
Quality box to box midfielder

The current centre backs are dreadful
Eccles and Torp are just passengers. Offer nothing.

Trying to be positive but we’re just such a boring team.

One thing we've done this season is rescue points, we've done it under Robins, Carr and Lampard.

If we don't see a reaction here then I fear there's some sort of deep rooted issue in this squad.

Bassette for Simms on 70, BTA for Torp 80. Book it.

Not sure how theirs is so low considering they had a tap in
