Dean Coneys boots 1,497 Posted January 28 It’s a combination of woeful recruitment and coaching that has seen us go backwards. Both need addressing in the summer - great goal from Borja! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 362 Posted January 28 The players we have wouild all be better if they were properly coached. Sainz not yet has been coached out, give him time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy Nigelton 1,277 Posted January 28 4 minutes ago, By Hook or Ian crook said: I’m not blaming him for everything. The war in the Middle East for example certainly not his fault.  The way we set up and play though absolutely is his fault. At what point is continually ignoring the same type of individual errors caused by the way we play not the managers fault? If it’s one individual error here and there it’s different. It’s every single game though we concede goals in the exact same way and it’s blamed on individual errors rather than a systemic problem with the way we try to play with the players at our disposal.  Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results. The individual errors come from the way we play and are coached not because we don’t have good players. We're playing one of the best teams in the world. We've lost two in 13 prior to this. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Petriix 3,143 Posted January 28 Sainz > Hernandez. Onel would be amazing if he could reliably do something with his last touch; without any end product the other touches are irrelevant. Sainz doesn't have anything like that physical presence (pace/power) but can find a teammate or the goal. If only we could merge them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

repman 738 Posted January 28 The difference between our young players and older ones is unbelievable. If these two sides played each other how do you think it'd go 25+ team Gunn Stacey - Hanley - Duffy - Gibson - Dimi Fassnacht - Sorensen - McLean - Onel Barnes vs under 25 team Reyes Fisher - Warner - Hills - McCallum Rowe - Nunez - Sara - Sainz Sargent - Idah The younger side defence + keeper is perhaps a bit suspect but I'm not sure I'd bet on the oldies to even trouble them that much.

Capt. Pants 4,882 Posted January 28 To be fair we haven’t played badly but we've really gifted Liverpool at least 3 goals. It's been a problem all season and it has to be rectified. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He just needs to add tackling to his game and he'll be a top player. At the minute a lot of PL teams will be sceptical because of this IMO. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
