Slade - Disappointing

Thu Nov 06, 2014 7:52 am

I give Slade praise for the way that he has cut out the chopping and changing which was a feature in EVERY game under Ole however I am disappointed that he has not given every one a fair crack of the whip.

Coming into the club, I thought that he may have wiped the slate clean and given every one a chance. This has just not happened.Guerra, arguably the best striker at the club cannot still even get on the bench. Daehli a great attacking option cannot even get on the pitch. Instead Slade appears to gave picked up his instructions from Scott Youg and ignored players like Guerra but picked average players like Ralls. Ravel Morrison cannot even get a start.

I think Slade has missed an opportunity by ignoring his best striker and most potent midfielders. It is disappointing that he is ignoring arguably the best talent and sticking to his tried and trusted soldiers. What input Young has had into that who knows.

It is being questioned even at this early stage of his reign why is not Slade using Guerra or Daehli.

I find it difficult to believe that Young is having a serious impact on selection. It wil be interesting to see what sort of players Slade brings inand compare them to what he has to work with now. Old fashion comes to mind.

To be fair, he works with these players on a daily basis in training ... Maybe their not showing it in training to warrant a place in the squad?

I just cant see why ole or slade have not had guerra at least on the bench, proven goal scorer, looked class everytime he played off the bench, crying out for a start. Baffles me.
