I’d beg to differ re first team players. Excluding berg the front 6 is first team.I think the boys are playing as well as they can with a serious lack of first team players and experience, in a system and which basically offers both wings as free space to the oppo. Johnson non existent again though
I think it's still handball, just hope we get one like that in the second half and then I'll change my mindNot a handball or deliberate and I'd say the same for us, natural position, hit close to the player. No handball.
Bottom four is on though.Well we ain't beating Woolwich away so not looking good but let's be honest we are not getting in the top 4 this season anyway
There’s been more long kicks from Austin today than I can recall seeing any of our keepers do in the past. Not saying we aren’t playing out, just doing it less often.We're playing into Howe's hands here. We play out from the back, they press for a quick turnover, rapid transition, score, wait for another error.
Sub sub keeper, makeshift CB and back-up, no existing chemistry in this 11, and yet we persist with this approach. It's about as one-dimensional as coaching gets, injuries or not.
Obviously still too ill to play. Credit to him for trying.
