Adams has spent most of the half on the ground rather than on his feet.
I like Russell Martin, but this is piss poor tonight. No creativity whatsoever.
Now he plays Shea Charles, a game too late. Or several.
No Jack Stephens in the team. Rothwell starts, despite the fact he’s never been very good as a starting player.
Leicester going full strength, 2-1 win for them tonight.
We also need to make the play off final first. Based on some player performances and how inconsistent we are it’s a case of whoever has the bottle on the day.
The only thing RM can be blamed for yesterday is not picking a like for like replacement in Shea Charles who is perfectly capable.
That didn’t lose us the game though, we still had ample chances to win and our attackers let us down.
RM’s blame in this holding midfielder saga is the fact that this has been an issue for a number of games in 2024 when Downes has been out and he hasn’t learnt from it.
In terms of the play offs that’s my thinking entirely.
We’ll lose 2-0. Not a lot of creation from our end, and a consolation from RM that the boys have been brave all season and just ran out of steam.
Dream scenario now.
Ipswich finish third and we finish fourth.
I back us to beat West Brom over two legs, and I back Norwich to beat Ipswich over two legs.
I also back us to beat Norwich. Twice this season we just didn’t take chances against them, that’s all.
About time someone on here talked some sense.
The only thing he made a mistake with was persist and dither with subs a little too long.
It isn’t Russell Martins fault that he was bought a crocked striker and has been left with one of the most inconsistent finishers in the league.
