In the 1st 15 minutes Nelson misplaced the simplest of passes out of defence straight to a Bournemouth player - about 5 yds from where he was aiming. A moment later he 'passed' to Giles when the ball was bouncing. He couldn't bring it under control so just lobbed it into the air in the general direction of Giles, who had to control the ball with a Bournemouth player tight on him. True, Morison hasn't criticized Nelson, but Nelson isn't capable of passing or controlling a football, so criticism would be pointless. Morison knows Davies could and should have done better.
I'm not sure that's true. I think everyone who supported his appointment, and there are many of us, wanted a fresh head with fresh ideas. We all know we have a pretty poor squad and we all knew it would be a tough challenge to avoid relegation. But I think most of us wanted a fresh start and the team that was selected last night harks back to the bad old days. In my opinion Vaulks, Bacuna, Nelson and Pack must be avoided at all cost if we have any chance. Morison must try new formations.
Nelson has been appalling for some time and is a liability. Surely now must be the time we look to replace him.
You're absolutely right! What's happened to Tom Sang and Bagan and I wonder how long it is before Sam Bowen is fit? Chuck Wintle into the mix and we have the basis of a new midfield alongside Ralls. I'm increasingly getting concerned about NG's ability.
I just expected a bit more experimentation from Morison but last night's selection has knocked my faith.
