But would you have left Waghorn on knowing he was totally ineffective? No I'd have started with JHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Buchanan is our best crosser of the ball. Who is he crossing to? I thought Buchanan was poor tonight but I wouldn’t have lost the shape.

Holmes has been dreadful all season, you seem to think that because i haven't changed my profile pic I must think the sun shines out his arse Rooney was woeful all game, in all positions. He showed he's the problem at the club at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawhillram Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 1 hour ago, RoyMac5 said: We came out second half and started to look dangerous. Rooney up front started to link up play - could have been a wardrobe ? - and then someone bought on Richards and Holmes and it all went to hell in a handcart! WTF was that about? Any pattern of play disappeared and we went down in disarray. ducking awful decision. It must have been Rosenior as Rooney was on the pitch. WTF was he thinking? Rooney and Sibley were starting to make a difference and he sends Holmes on with three fingers in the air??? WTF was that. And Richards managed to make Waghorn look reasonable. We need ONE manager now. And its not Rosenior. Hoping it wasn’t Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asanovic70 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Roy, It wasn't all bad. According to the BBC, we had a penalty shout around the '90th minute. It's just nobody could be bothered & told Colin Kazim-Richards to get up before he made himself look silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How Rooney even came back out at half time was a joke. He only had to hold the ball up once to do it more than Waghorn though. Yes he held the ball up a few times, but he offered nothing else at all. Made no runs in behind, every pass he made was backwards, and he really slowed the play down when we needed to speed it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't understand why we didn't see JHL (completely dropped for Richards?) or Stretton. It really does bring into question why Colin was signed.

"Buchanan is struggling, let's take him off" - not get someone from midfield to support him but to take him off and then have Bird wander over there every now and then, so not even put someone else in to cover the left side of the defence. If that's the tactical nous being shown by the committee, the sooner it has gone the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the tactical nous being shown by the committee, the sooner it has gone the better. It's why I couldn't understand why Forsyth wasn't on the bench. At least we would have had an option if Buchanan had to come off for whatever reason. We had Davies AND Evans on the bench. Why did we need 2 CBs? The logically choice (if changing shape) would be to bring Davies on and shuffle Clarke across to help Buchanan out. It was suicidal putting Bird CB with Lawrence/Whittaker at LWB.
