Without being called a troll this is it really.

I don’t understand though…are we still tired? how? I agree we need more depth for the rest of the season but is this 11 tired? can’t be

I think after we lost our first to Ipswich we should have gone to a more condensed stodgy set up.

Loads of times we have dropped points recently is down to us losing the midfield battle.

Grimes and Rudoni have essentially got free roles in this formation, which is broken because of it. And we've added in another winger in Esse, who is closer to EMC in defensive workrate, than to Sakamoto.

All teams need to do against a midfield that dysfunctional, is to sit deep and stretch the play so much that it leaves their own midfield a huge overload in a massive space, against Torp. Grimes needs to play 10-15 meters higher, Rudoni to play in a much tighter circle, so that he stops wandering around like a fucking bison grazing the entire Savannah, and then that gives the 2 wingers the freedom they want to play high.

[BackRoomRummermill]

More please

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

@TomRad85 you were talking about goals off someone’s arse?

 

[Nick]

That didn't go out.

 

[Sick Boy]

Need to concentrate now

 

[Nick]

Oh offside

 

[Sick Boy]

What? It didn't go out.

 

[jto123]

Simms is miles ahead of Wright

 

[mark82]

Offside?

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

someone earlier said off someone’s arse and in…..not far off

Let's face it, he knew little about it. We don't care though!

 

[jordan210]

So the Lino saw that as out not the one for the corner what was 2 foot over

 

[RoysterE17]

Needed that goal!! Luckiest thing we have had happen for us in a long time!!

 

[jordan210]

Look like he said offside

 

[Paul Anthony]

What did he give, foul or offside?

 

[CovLis86]

The exact lucky bounce I said. Scuffed shot by Rudi and bounced off Simms back leg as he's being pulled down. Just as good as a 40 yard screamer - a goal is a goal. Now come on.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Simms is the best better then gyokeres

 

[MAFF]

Get in…now let’s not have another Birmingham please

 

[Nick]

Their player is on the pitch every time he throws it. Lino missing it?

 

[mark82]

Let's face it, he knew little about it. We don't care though!

Credit to Rudoni too.

 

[JohnWH]

Simms just lumbers around waiting for the ball to come to him. Never runs towards a cross or a pass.

Sure worked out a few minutes ago
