We are crying out for a decent goalkeeper by the way. I think it’s causing serious problems. Including cleaning out Dan Moss who if I had trust in the GK probably would have left it. | | | |

This is just a case of when not if. It’s actually atrocious to watch. I appreciate those looking for positives but i hear ‘help the boys as much as I can’ and how exactly does he do that? Particularly during a game? We can’t seem to have any momentum in a game or calm. As somebody else said it’s just frantic from front to back. Our clearances are always the wrong option, the duels are bouncing straight back to them. It’s just weak. |  | | |

A relentless focus on winning style? Maybe. |
Can you name me a manager that doesn't try to do that? |  |

If we have so many wide players on the bench it makes sense to use them, especially as on paper we have a bit of quality in that position. I would argue that it is the position we are strongest in. |
We just don’t look like we are ever going to create anything though. It’s a dire watch again with last ditch defending. No flair and shape is all over the place. Mani is marked out of the game again and having wide players is great if you’re going to get balls into the box. See a late Walsall winner here sadly.
We also sit bottom of the league based on current results. | | | |

Both midfielders on yellows in another game where the midfield is being overrun...
Uh oh. |  | | |

Exactly. Zero composure from anybody. | | | |

1 shot on target v Walsall's 6. Says it all really. Mani not up to L2 standard. Why on earth is he captain? | |

I actually think Henderson offers more. Criminally underused. He occupies defenders whereby Mani just strolls around with them. | | | |

The only positive I can pull from this is we are not losing.
Mani is absolutely shocking. Gilmour is about to get sent off. Midfield is all over the place, second to every ball. It doesn’t end | | | |

That’s a good point on the road. And a clean sheet. | | | |

To say both were needed would be the understatement of the season so far | |

Great point. Have to build on it next week in a derby where both managers are under huge pressure to get a result. |  |

Will absolutely take that. Clean sheet, point away at a good pre-Christmas team, 2 injured players back on the bench, hopefully no more injures from the game (send Moss for an ice bath)....
Do we even have a forward to drop Mani for? Hendo can't be a starting forward at this level now... can he? | | | |

If you had offered me a point before kick off I would have taken it. Another week of training for Smith, Middleton, Heyes and Maguire should mean they are ready for more game time. |  | | |

I don’t see any reason why not.
Although it’s unfair having not seen today, we either play Brown as the central striker or leave him out to play a proper attacking midfielder/10. | |

Have I missed something? What has happened to Rodney? Has he gone? Is he injured? | |

Great point but a poor performance again.
Waller in for Ramming and now Maguire’s fit, him in for Wilson?
Those two are quite clearly the weak links in the side.
I’d also try Brown up front and one of our many wingers in Brown’s former position. Mani needs dropping, even if it’s just to give him a kick up the @rse |  | | |

or play Brown as the central striker with a proper attacking midfielder/10 and leave Dieseruvwe out? | |

Hannant on one wing and then Smith/Middleton on one wing. If they can only do 50 minutes so be it. Take them off after 50 minutes. Taylor in the 10 and then Brown up front. Play a bit more in the channels and get him running in behind. At least he will work a bit harder up top than Mani has been. | | | |

First half I thought Mani did a really good job at linking the play up and most of our openings came through him and was also really supporting the players in organising the press around him. He would’ve had a great chance too but Brown wrongly chose to shoot rather than slip in Mani. |  | | |

I understand your point but ultimately, he’s in there to score goals, I don’t remember him having a shot on target this season bar the one against Gillingham (which he should have buried).
I’ll be very disappointed if he starts next game***
***so he likely will | | | |
