We have some poor players, the whole front 6 were pony today, Solanke worked hard as always andJohnson was a bit better than normal but he can't play as a proper winger, no step over, no trick - we were crying out for someone who could beat a man and whip a good cross in, even get half a yard and do it but our wingers aren't useful against bus parkers and our midfield was devoid of intelligence, movement and invention . Mad has to play in games like these.
Sarr and Benta didn't use the ball well or offer themselves enough and Son and Kulu were piss poor also.
We're devoid of confidence but we're also devoid of character. I watched us come out and line up at the start, we looked apprehensive, tense and like a bunch of individuals. I don't want to pick on Johnson as he was a bit better today but he looks like a 9 year old in an adults body, Son like a teenager in the same way.
Another defender injured and another suspended. Big game Sunday, if we lose Ange is under the cosh bigtime.
Changing the manager feels inevitable, I don't back Mason taking over at all so if we have to wait for the right person then so be it.
But I also think Conte was right to a large extent. We have too many fair weather players , great when they're on it but weak and lacking fight when they are not - it shows in our results so clearly but also during games. Any manager coming in will suffer the same with some of this lot.
Forest aren't even that good which makes it even more frustrating, in a false position and can't see them remaining there.
Oh and the officials generally were fucking useless too.
The End.
