Il Pirata 249 Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) I think Mario and Mo were always going to have to wait for a defeat to get their chance. I suppose its fair enough, however frustrating it seems. I put my trust in Farke, but his trust in Cantwell is a little odd to me with the options available. Edited April 14, 2019 by Il Pirata Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's more goals here! That's the spirit. We can't have a knee-jerk reaction to this. So much anger on here and trust in Farke seems to have disappeared. I agree with most that we need more creativity than Cantwell/McLean give. I hope Farke sees this after Reading and this first half. He cannot wait any longer than 60 mins to change it up. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All the Germans 1,075 Posted April 14, 2019 Why the hysteria. We're losing - not lost - a game. We're not playing well and Farke can see that. He's done a good enough job so far to deserve the respect and patience of the fans. We are not entitled to a winning team and have been fortunate to witness a fantastic season so far. Demanding he changes things etc doesn't help anyone. He'll no doubt give them a rocket, make a few tactical tweaks, give them 20 minutes to see how it works and then make changes if necessary. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vrancic and Leitner now! what a time come ... we fans to pray for injury or bad play to have best players on field 😕 wake up Farke Edited April 14, 2019 by Boris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harry53 207 Posted April 14, 2019 2 minutes ago, sonyc said: Well, poor decision by the ref. Yet we should be playing better as the team at the top of the table. Quite a few players are not having good games. Same really for 60 minutes against Reading. Nerves? Emi missing? We have lost our way a bit. Big 2nd half in our season. How can the ref give that as a penalty? Their player blocked his view so I don't think he saw anything but responded to their player. Very poor decision. However we are playing poorly and need to stepit up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ekoku: The Ambassador Of The People 122 Posted April 14, 2019 This was coming regardless even though it wasn’t a penalty. Too many lax players out there today. Know they aren’t going to be dropped if they have a bad game as long as we pick up points. Hopefully can keep it at 1-0 till the 70th min when Farke finally decides to make subs.

Wonder if that really is a factor, we've complained about managers being too stubborn to change things, are we giving Farke a free pass on the same thing just because of the league position? *edit* Good chance, much better quick break.
