Not adrift yet.....

Sat Sep 24, 2016 6:56 am

Only positive I can see at the moment, and I believe if this happens it will take a huge effort to get out of that bottom three. My positive side hopes everything clicks in place today and we get the win we so badly need, unfortunately we have become so easy to beat as we create little and now also leak goals. But the biggest factor is we have no dogs of war.

I just can't see it but football has a good and bad habit of proving you wrong, okeefe must start today together with Harris and lex and we just need to hope it all falls in place. The likely hood is 5 defeats on the bounce against some poor teams, surely them Trollope is shown the door. :bluebird: :ayatollah: :bluescarf:

Stringfellow, he's got to start playing our best players and playing them in their best positions.
Harris, arguably out best player this season, has to start if fit and play a much more forward role.
Immers, arguably our best player last season, has to play in his most effective position which is the no 10 and not deeper in the midfield.
O'Keef must start if fit and not from the bench.
And for me Manga must play as he's our best ball playing defender.

He keeps changing the line up because he doesn't know his best eleven.
He needs a settled side and especially a settled back line.

Absolutely spot on, you would be no fun to have a debate with. :thumbup:

Haha - the difference with us is that I'd rather give our manager a little more time mainly because we won't bring in anyone better.
If we went out and got someone like Tim Sherwood then that would be a different matter. Not sure if he's working at the moment.

I agree with you here mate, harris okeefe and harris must start. Also o agree on your dogs of war comment, gunnarson and okeefe are dogs of war and they need to start in midfield imo. Harris is a threat with pace which we need badly and immers can support lambert which he needs. Hopefully things will come together today i hope paul trollope can pick the right players and formation and get it right today
