Disco Dales Jockstrap 1,893 Posted August 21, 2021 Well, the changes have made us a bit better. Pukki is still very isolated though. OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 3,773 Posted August 21, 2021 On the plus side we've looked more solid since the changes. I'm hoping this is the last time we see Rupp start for us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) 17 minutes ago, kirku said: It's 1.5 games then. I'd venture you are asking a bit too much then, especially given the state of our pre season Even comparing against last week - when our pre season issues you mention were even more at the forefront - you have to admit that that first half performance has been far worse. Is it really asking too much to expect us to be able to maintain a similar level for the next match? To be clear, I was never expecting anything more than a loss in this match, but if me believing that we could play at least a little bit better in this match is 'asking for too much' then god help us!

fredherring 136 Posted August 21, 2021 Another absolute shocker after gifting them the midfield. This is just shocking from farke. No outlet, and in favt McLean is dropping almost into a back five. You have to have an outlet. Pukki unfit and no number ten. Criminal against any team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CirclePoint 204 Posted August 21, 2021 Unfortunately I have to agree. We look completely disjointed and shell-shocked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
