Sadly, all of them are ponderous, inconsistent, low on confidence, and have the appearance of a classic relegation team.
Totally agree with this. The bar is so, so low. Average ratings of 7.5 or whatever for a must win game in which we created next to nothing against another bottom feeder at home.Quote:

Yep, I agree. Even if we beat the two on the beach teams we’ve got left to play and stay up, it’s the worst squad we’ve had since promotion in 2003 - I’d say it’s got more talent than the 22/23 side, but that team could defend.Quote:

Agreed- the best 'performances' from City players this season have relied on fleeting moments in matches- a good finish (rare to see one of those), a hearty tackle or winning a corner- that'll get you a MOM in this City side. How often have they dominated (or at least shown themselves to be better than) their opponents over 90 minutes? Other than the Plymouth and Portsmouth games, they haven't. This City team is full of mediocrity and relegation is entirely deserved.
Did anyone really think we’d hold on for the win after our goal? How many times has the opposition just had to step up just a little to get back in the game and even win it?
Players are more precious than ever and I suppose if they want to maintain access Wales Online needs to be sympathetic/charitable. Why was Salech cupping his ear after he scored? Was it a case of Youssef can't hear you or how dare you criticise us? Just thought it a bit strange in the circs.
Their "thunderbolt" goal may have bee a hell of a strike, but shirley Horvath should have ensured that he had it covered by positioning the wall and covering any gap? It wasn't 'over the top' a la Witts.
Horvath gives me no confidence whatsoever

They must be gotten rid of the moment the Sala case is over, and we must find keen, intelligent owners who will invest.
It was a bit more positive, some players played a tad better but you're dead right.Quote:

We'd lose to a side with Alexander, Gabbs, Kav, Thorne and Earnie in it
I think he is ****ing dreadful, no wonder Ajax want rid of him.Quote:

Let me rephrase, I think Mannsverk was one of our best performers todayQuote:

Mannsverk carried the ball well at times and looked fairly neat bringing the ball up the pitch, but then may as well of had the shirt number 404 as he had literally no idea what to do with the ball next.
The player who deserved his praise today was Willock who turned out the kind of performance I was hoping he would all season. Keeping full backs busy, delivering crosses and always making himself available to receive a pass. His counterpart on the opposite flank, Ashford, had a day to forget. He was never at the races, struggled to get the ball under his spell, plenty of misplaced passes - and I may have nightmares tonight over the pass he failed to play to Robertson who would have likely been through on goal.
it felt needed at the time, the guy was running into a lot of space. No one could have thought he'd twat it in from thereQuote:
