Our attack comes from 2 places - set pieces, and in open play going wide every ducking chance to cross for Wyke.
Our open play is one dimensional and is being easily countered over the last few games.
With he exception of the last few minutes, another opposing keeper has fuck all to do.
And the people who clapped off Billy Clarke - you're all cunts. The twitter twats will all be sucking him off tonight.

I'm shocked that anyone expected different. And some thought we wouldn't miss Marshall. And Reeves better than Cullen 😂😂😂. Feel sorry for Charlie, he has fuck all to work with.

The lack of strength in depth is alarming. Hanson and Robinson!?

Our midfield is fucking atrocious going forward. Going sideways to create crossing opportunities - they fucking excel at. However the quality of crosses is dubious. Everything we do is so easy to defend against when it's been worked out.
Fucking miserable to watch in and around the edge of the box. So slow at trying to do anything, delay delay delay and it comes to nothing.
Reeves was awful for me. He's learnt a lot from Law in the art of overplaying and and taking 5 touches to do something that should take 2 at the most.
Predictable play. No one gambles. Not creative on the ground. We're crying out for a Marshall type who dictates the attack from the midfield, who runs direct at players and puts a fucking ball without holding it for 5 minutes first.
Whatever Jones has done from McCalls comments must be shocking when doylems like Patrick and McCartan are ahead of you when you're chasing a game. Patrick doesn't take it seriously at times for me - some of the passes he played to no one and touches were amateur, and he can fuck off if he thinks that's acceptable. Zero threat at all.
Mccall is fucking himself in the ass with his tactics and in game approach when we lose - when we go behind we lose, that's it. Only a last second equiliser at Oxford bucks that trend.

Playing Wyke upfront on his own nullifies our biggest threat. We're effectively marking our biggest goal threat out of the game on behalf of the opposition. Patrick on the wing is worse than Patrick upfront and five across midfield at home makes for a dire spectacle and helps teams who come for a draw.
On a lighter note I thought it was a lovely show of respect by Billy Clarke to not play against us.

Not sure anyone was worthy of a 7 though! We have a potent weapon in Charlie Wyke but McCall doesn't get the best out of him. Reeves isn't as good as people think and Law will never give you anything above a 7. Gilliead is just a bang average league one player and Patrick is living off two good finishes. Stick Cullen and Marshall in there today we would have won no problem.

Stick Cullen and Marshall in there today we would have won no problem. I really rate Reeves but he's hot and cold. I honestly do think he'd play much better with a midfield partner who runs on. Reeves has his head up before he's even received the ball looking for options but out midfielders are all defensive. Reeves needs more options to shine and we don't give them to him; it's lump up or lay it out wide and that's it. Our set up is geared to stifling a creative midfielder.

Does McCall have the cajones to drop Law? Dieng has looked good this season, maybe try Dieng and Reeves?

Does McCall have the cajones to drop Law? Dieng has looked good this season, maybe try Dieng and Reeves? Dieng, Law, Reeves and Vincelot; its pretty damning that Reeves is the most attacking of those. We're desperately flat in midfield and it was noted before the season even started. If we do play two defensive centre midfielders then we need to go with two out and out wingers but we persist with Law out wide. Our system doesn't do Law any favours at all but he needs dropping for a genuine left-winger. Unfortunately we don't have one.

If McCall believes what he said about us playing really well in the second half then I'd like to see him convince Edin of that. OK we were missing nearly half a team, but even then, it was poor.
