Pace/midfield

Or lack of it, we were crying out for it all last season and the only two with any Fabio and Malone have gone.

I could have sworn Ken Choo said we recognised the lack of pace and we were only going to sign players with pace.

And whilst we need at least two strikers with pace we need wingers who can go outside fullbacks and take them on.

The other missing ingredient is a right horrible B-----d in the middle a leader somebody to pull the strings, the midfield we have at the moment are collectively the poorest I can remember for many a year.

Whilst I though Whitts dud ok first half today the others in particular Ralls far to slow and no fight.

New system time to settle no excuse another summer and we failed to recognise the lack of pace and a leader, hope I am wrong but I fear a very long hard season fighting at the wrong end of the table.

I've been saying this last few years. We lack QUALITY in midfield not quantity.
Also lack of pace and trouble getting players forward to support our strikers

We have no one capable of beating a man, Joe Ralls was doing it and driving forward early part of last season but now seems happy to get his foot on the ball and play short passes to keep possession.

Exactly. We sold our two quickest wing backs. For the faults Malone had, he caused lots of issues for the other teams and played a hand in lots of goals. This formation would have fitted his style and we've replaced him with a shit ex jack cas he had one good game for Wales.
