Agree with this, he's turning into a Whitts style central midfielder, beginning of the season I made a post about him taking the ball under pressure but turning away from his man and helping us move forward but that's stopped and he is not involved in the game.

He doesn't work in a 442.

Just in a long list of players who ultimately fail in Slades 442 system. There is so much space and ground they need to cover they are always on the back foot.

It was always Whitts who was he weak link, stopping 22 year Joe from being the main man :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol

For the last 12 months I have maintained its the system, well not the system just we don't have the players for the system. No real Wingers or Big man /quick man combo up front.

We played a 4231 last week and worked a treat I don't know why he changed it.

Because he just loaned 2 strikers and has to justify it

Re: ralls time for a rest

He always seems to wait for the ball to come to him instead of going towards a pass and consequently gets dispossessed

He could've played Zohore with Lawrence behind him in the hole.

Zohore .....Doubt we'll ever see him again. Possibly the worst 15 mins I have ever witnessed.

Everything the Danish Press claimed was true :?

Macheda showed him what a real striker should do.

Can't judge him after with little minutes he had today. :?

Correct, it says more about Slade or the regime if anyone thought he was ready, and if he is, back to Belgium he can go......

Some players looked good after little time and went on to be shit you can't judge after 15 minutes.

Def can't judge after fifteen minutes but when he came on just didn't look or run like a footballer, acorn was same just didn't look like he should be there. But only on loan, macheda looked sharp :thumbup:

Ralls is a great player at this level, needs a rest is young but will kick on :thumbup:

He was either overawed, unfit or useless.

Remember when DJ loaned someone's cousin and subbed the sub........Same feeling

If i lost four stone and rolled back 20 years it wouldn't take you long to work out i was only a decent parks footballer, not even Welsh amateur level ......Hope I am wrong of course.

I've played striker for low division Welsh league (not saying I'm any better than him or that I was any good ) but, his jumping and stance at going up for a challenge was awful. Watch how he was jumping underneath the ball instead of trying to get momentum and actually challenge the header
