The Kraken

If we don’t go up I would be amazed if we can afford his transfer fee.

Macca did very well but I don’t think there was anything spectacular about his saves. The first one was very good to be fair, the second was routine and the shot was pretty much straight at him. It just shows how levels of expectations around shot saving have dropped somewhat. I thought where AMC really excelled today was his command of balls into the box, he was very strong and very assured in claiming crosses, and it seemed to put the defence at ease. I also thought his long ball distribution was pretty decent too, first half especially he clipped a couple of balls out to KWP which took play right up the pitch and put us on the attack.

Tbf he only started 4 league games all season. 24 as sub though, 3 goals. I’m not sure what his best position is, but on todays display it’s definitely not as a centre forward. Sulemana is even worse, 10 starts 15 subs and zero goals. Thats what, nearly £30m spent on two players who don’t cut it at championship level.

Dont think either had a bad game, they’ve just got super high levels and I don’t think they hit them today. Always gonna happen in some games. Good result overall though.

Quite a disappointing display that. AMC and Bedders about the only bright spot. KWP and Flynn nowhere near their top levels. Boner a bit of a passenger, THB looked a bit shaky, don’t know what happened with AA but he clearly got a big whack to the face and it really affected him.. Stephens the worst player on the pitch, Manning not far behind and Mara just isn’t good enough. If Che isn’t fit I think I’d I’d prefer to risk LND from the start and make a sub if we need to, Mara up top is absolutely not the answer.

Be tempted to get Bree on at LB, Also a bit of fresh legs in midfield.

What the fucking cunt are they doing?

Tbf any decent keeper at this level should be making those saves. It’s shows how far our benchmarks have fallen.

Pretty weak shot from WBA, luckily. Should’ve buried that.

Wow, what a minute.

Stephens getting absolutely ripped.

Phew

Naive defending.

Too close.

Looked like Manning was offside from Downes’ pass but not given.

Yeah looks like LND still has his training top on so not yet.

Nessie coming on?

WTF 🤪

Well a mixed bag of a half. KWP not ahis best, Stephens and Manning both terrible. Flynn on a yellow also not ideal. Mara not really in the game, Armstrong has had a couple of outside opportunities to break through but got his timings wrong, aside from that quiet. Be interesting to see as the game goes on how much faith Russ has in Stewart. My feeling is that he won’t risk him with any meaningful minutes unless we’re behind.

Good save. Manning is getting ripped every time.

Being as we’ve only had one 0-0 in 46 games, I’m not overly confident of another.

Stephens is having a fucking mare. Again.

Manning is a very poor defender.

Have our lot been on the piss or something?

Basically this please. And yes, of course with the blue.
