Hate having a go at our youngsters but no room for sentiment. We keep playing this kid and we're going down to League one where he belongs.

Do not have a go at any academy products thank you.Quote:

Just because they are our academy products does not make them good players.
It certainly does not.Quote:

We're only doing it to save money too, I'm certain of it.
Firstly he’s not an academy player.
Secondly the senior pros were the ones who were absolutely shocking tonight. Morrison was a disgrace.
Yeah some odd posts in here. Brown wasn't great but he wasn't any worse than Morrison/Flint/NelsonQuote:

Well that's okay then cos none of the feckers can pass the ball anywayQuote:

Morrison of all people, looks to have completely lost interest. It is just bizarre to watch.Quote:

It’s the senior pros who have downed tools (they’re limited players in some ways, but not as bad as they’ve been looking lately) - would they be playing like this if they had all learned they would not be offered new contracts?
But haven't you noticed - he's great at giving fist-bumps, high-fives and offering a helping hand to either Morrison or Flint to get them back on their feet... what a team player, eh!Quote:

He's not the best but also he should never ever be played as a wingback.
Brown is a league 2 stopper, athletic and brave
Nelson is a League 1 stopper slightly more athletic and brave
Morrison needs a narrow back 4 with an athletic partner (Sol even Nelson). He doesn't need his mirror image of Flint as we saw in the last days of Warnock. We got away with the back 3 last season as you had to respect our wing-backs. As soon as Bennett was injured the wheels started to fall off.
I don't think the players have downed tools, but they know every team in the football league has sussed us. You play in the gaps between the 3 centre-halves. You hit us on the transition and we are so slow we can't stop you.
Morrison was never quick but he was mobile and savvy enough to stop you in a tight backline. The problem is he is patroling the area he would pull the right back over to cover and all those injuries, maybe age but definitely Micks tactics are publically exposing every weakness in his game.
Flint looks better as he is playing his natural position
Then we have bacuna who was bought as a CM and cover right back playing as a wide forward
So the only members playing in their preferred position are the Goalie who looks lost, Flint, Pack and maybe Moore but he has no natural attacking midfielders. Its all a bit of a mess, but one that could be remedied with new tactics or coach
Yes, agree, that’s a good summaryQuote:
