Difficult to know where to start. One of our centre backs will have to go. Probably Morrison as he was injured early in the game.
Etheridge was ok apart from his awful kicking.
Both full backs are as good as weve got.
Midfield was awful. Pack was disappointing, Ralls put himself about at least. Badly needed another body in there.
If you are going to play two wingers they need to contribute far more than they are.
Glaxel, had no service. Cardiff style totally unsuited. Needs to be shipped out. Not sure Ward was on pitch.

Smithies has to play. Etheridge's kicking is so bad at this point that it actively hurts us.
Why can't he put his foot through the ball? it's unbelievable.Quote:

If Hoilett and Tomlin are fit then they should be in, ideally for NML and Bacuna.
Etherise is hurting us with his poor kicking, it’s been embarrassing since he came in and he has shown ZERO improvement. Swansea fans were taking the piss out of him all game.
I would ship Bennett off but we have no other option at left back, likewise for Peltier, though he’s solid he offers nothing going forward which again hurts us with Whyte ahead of him who has no end product.
All I want is the Morrison/Flint experiment to be over, they are a disaster together, I have no idea how good Nelson is but it can’t hurt to change it up considering the amount of goals we are shipping
Think we’ve got to go with Ward up top as he’s the only one who has scored goals.Quote:

Flint should be dropped really. If we’re not going to give Nelson a chance then surely he has to go? Otherwise what’s the point?

I don't think it would take Birmingham long to work out if they have anybody who has the pace of an asthmatic tortoise with a broken leg who's stuck in a wheelchair and is feeling a bit wheezy that if they play the ball into the channels they will beat our sprint kings for the ball.
The solution is relatively simple
What is the difference between this season's defence and last season's and the season before when we won promotion and we competed (relatively speaking) in the premier league - FLINT.
get him out now and put preferably Bamba then Nelson or perhaps Pack - anybody but bloody Flint. We may as well be playing with a Giant Redwood in defence. M'Boro fans were grateful to get rid of him - he was bleedin average when he peaked at the Wurzels and we always knew we would beat them - yet we go and sign their dross.
We desperately miss Manga
You’re probably right although team selection could be improved with Pugh instead of Huw and also Barney McGrew :thumbup:Quote:

(abandon waste of space wingers & match up in midfield)
I'm travelling to the match with the Birmingham lads from work. They're concerned as their attack is small & quick .... our static defence is in trouble then!
One thing was settled on Sunday. Bamba in for Flint when he is ready.Quote:

Pack sat in front of the back 4, Coxe and Hoilett given license to go forward, Ralls and Vaulks both box-to-box workers in the middle, with Vaulks given more license to support the front two
The 4-4-2 on Sunday was suicidal, the wingers contributed next to nothing in attack because they were too busy defending and the midfield was cut through far too easily, exposing Morrison and the carthorse. Warnock has also worked himself into the fantastic position of either not playing his favourite (and a fan favourite) in Sol Bamba, or dropping either the captain or big money summer signing
Genius.
It doesn't make any sense, does it! We were nearly always guaranteed to get something out of the game whenever we played against Bristol City. They had no one who you thought could hurt us, bang average, as you said and continually finishing below us. Yet we go and raid their club for players?Quote:
