We're way too static.

Thomas's passing has been dreadful recently.

Yea Simms touch let’s him down occasionally, but if he’s being picked out as a scapegoat this place has lost it again.

He’s won numerous flick ons, generally held it up well and his movement has been good. All while being supported by a 10 who can’t be arsed and two wing backs who are scared to cross the half way line.

Former boo boy, now loved Wright, has been poor again so far (granted it’s been 10 mins).

Lots will be said after this and lots will be assumed. My take is we with this group are in about the right position for what we have. Robins will look at this and know where to add come the summer. Certain players will not be with the group next season but losing games always brings questions.

I just think this group is out of form and reached its level in the league. No point being to upset the positive is we know where to improve.

They’re so much more comfortable on the ball than we are.

Reminds me of Ipswich away where they passed through our midfield at will. Something I’ve not seen us do since League 1 days.

They did it again from that goal kick. Pre-planned passage of play that gets them through our press with ease to a midfielder in 10 yards of space near halfway.

Why do we never do that???

Nah, tonight. In fairness, post his suspension we were on a winning run and Binks had earned the shirt.

Absolutely no one is moving up front.

Not one player in this team is a ball carrier.

Spell of sideways and backwards passing followed by a misplaced forward ball.
This system clearly does not work

A passage of play then that needed O'hare buzzing about not Palmer playing one two's with everyone just to go back to the half way line, I disagree with the opinion that he's been poor for weeks by the way

Binks needs Bidwell next to him.

Binks and dasilva is a nightmare waiting to happen.

The frustrating thing is that WBA really don't look anything special yet they've been able to stroll through the game.

Have none of the coaching staff realised the Simms can’t receive the ball in to his feet. We’d be better off with Palmer in that role, receiving it and playing off him. We seem to be finding formations that we don’t have players for. Forcing it.

I disagree, I think we've got a very good playing squad that should challenge for top 6. Unfortunately we've had injuries to very important players which can't be helped but at the same time Robins has started doing weird shit which has double fucked us.

Because he will play every week in a random, different position.

What do we do in training? Because no one out there looks like they know what the plan is.

He hasnt been offered a new contract, simple as that. Robins wants him to stay but seems Douglas doesnt fancy another pay increase
Click to expand...

Saddle I think you are a pretty reliable contact but there must be a lot more info behind this. (Unless you contact is robins himself) if Robins wants him to stay, and King is outright refusing to listen then MR is surely going to walk soon. From what we know of MR he isn't going to let Robins dictate the football side of it. And if he wants Lawrence to stay it's surely his remit to allocate funds from the playing budget towards that.
