DontTrustTheDevilInside Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 A lot of fans, Rowett and many commentators all seem to be very conflicted about what the squad currently has/needs and who offers what, welcome for anyone to put their best suggestion forward? So far seen: we lack creativity- vydra, Butterfield, Thorne, Huddlestone we lack energy- Bryson, Johnson, Russell, Weimann, we lack leaders- shackell, Pearce, keogh, Davies, we lack pace- Russell, Weimann,Bennett, nugent Is it players are not fulfilling there role/offering do they offer anything other than adding to numbers, sorry for some of the awful descriptions, really struggled with some to define their defining characteristics.

VulcanRam Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I think the OP is asking people for their opinion on the positive attributes of the players. But I'm not entirely sure. That's the first time I've seen Jamie Hanson compared to Xavi. And last I'd imagine. And poor old Kelle Roos, only a "potential goalkeeper". Harsh. At least Jonathan Mitchell got a "young".

VulcanRam Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 And I love the fact that Chris Martin only got: 9FWChris Martin- finisher? while Nick Blackman is "complete striker when on form?" That actually made me chuckle out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I know the midfield don't offer fast reliable passing, positive positioning. They aren't fast to react to loose balls. They'll never go between the lines of opposition defence and midfield preferring instead to hold hands and stand so close to back 4 that a Keogh erection would touch them. The only way they go forward without the ball is when the ball has gone past them and by the time they arrive we've lost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
