I wouldn't say that Bulut was taking a risk with those three players, in fact, it could be seen as a positive move. The fact that the three of them were complete shite and offered the sum of zero isn't really the managers fault. That's three players who couldn't adapt or make an impact. We can blame the manager when he deserves to be blamed, on this occasion i don't think he does.
That's harsh, none of them were worldbeating when they came on but at 2-1 Tanner and Colwill combined well with Colwill putting a great ball across the goal which neither Grant nor Meite went for. It was an easy tap in and should have been game over, but neither seem to have that killer instinct to go for those balls across. It was a theme yesterday and has been a few times this season where a winger has put the ball across the goal but nobody's gone for it, it's clearly a tactic because we do it so often but for whatever reason the forwards rarely seem to be alert to it.

Wintle really is a step down from Ralls & Siopis, that own goal was ridiculous, but he completely lacks any kind of dynamism or a change of pace. I think we'll be looking for a midfielder in January
