Right, calmed down... slightly!
The downfalls in this side is that we don't have any creativity, pace, invention... the list goes on! The only exception is Facey (pace-wise). The midfield, well, where do I start? as good as Ranks was last season, age seems to be catching up on him, he seriously tired second half yesterday. Macca - well, primadonna springs to mind, thinks he's class but doesn't show it often enough and shouts his mouth off too much. Summerbee - does he move? Didnt look for the ball, no crosses, always played it back 5 yards to Bruce (or so it seemed) and soft as proverbial (how many times did he crap himself outta challenges?). Aiston, promising runner but absolutely no end product. Havent seen him cross a decent ball all season thus far. Got into good positions to shoot but as everyone else - didnt bother - why try and score when u can mess about by the corner flag instead? :roll:
Their goal was a sickener. In fairness the defence looked ok until we gave acres of room to their forwards in the last 20mins. They exploited that fact. No challenges for their goal, the bloke walkd past 3 defenders and fired home - not good enough. Bruce is not a patch on Taylor - cant go forward for toffee and I would argue Ryan was a better defender too, at least he could tackle!
Since Humey has gone we now have ZERO creativity, nobody who can create something out of nothing and a special goal. Not that that happened a lot when he was here either but there was always a possibility no matter how small/big.
Little really needs to sort the whole team out, this league isnt even as good as it was last season. Theres many a poor team in there and we are one of them. The fact that we are 3 pts off playoffs and 1 off relegation zone says it all. Sort it out BL!
