Next season the thread will be malfunctioning defence
Was gonna come in here and say the exact same.
Last Season, we needed to get new Forwards and we did.
This season it's the MF's turn and we got a couple but shipped out, what 5/6?
Next season will be the Defenses turn for an over haul.
For me Defense is the problem
Trent is just no RB, the minute the ball is played down that side, I sh*t myself he's gonna get skinned.
We have Ibou who I adore, reckon he's great for the Team morale going by his latest videos, but he sometimes seems a wee bit shaky to me.
Gomez, I haven't had faith in, in the last 2 years
Matip, one of the best frees ever but sometimes feel he runs around like a headless chicken, all over the shop.
Ali our Superstar, who I F***ing love and have no problems with whatsoever.
Virg our new Captain, who I am hoping sees the new gig as Captain, as a rejuvenation but still noticed him in yesterdays games, twice running backwards with his hands behind his back, whilst the player was attacking us.
Robbo, I love but gets caught up the pitch so many times on the counter, but I don't mind that on that side, coz at least I can see Virg being able to cover.
and finally Tsimikas who I think is the perfect Number 2 to Robbo.
This is all my opinion of course and it probably means sh*t to a lot of you but I don't see us winning anything with that defense.
We just ship too many goals.
Feel it's gonna be one of those seasons where our game plan is just go hell for leather and whatever they score, we have to better.
Great for the neutral and exciting, but F**k me, not sure my 52 year old heart can take that for a whole season.
So a RB and a CB for me please JWH. 2 weeks to get it sorted and whilst you are at it, get a new DM please!
