He had set such a low bar just the minimal effort and a few attempts on goals would make him look like a player with a future. Not great no but looking like with service he can lead the line. Would have been a tremendous help to have an "ok" Wesley last night. Edit - we always needed another striker anyway. Not disputing that at all. Edited January 9, 2020 by dont_do_it_doug.

You're forgetting the modern football fan who wants lovely attacking football and looks at a full backs attack qualities only. Then when said full back turns out is incapable of defending (like Targett) they will moan about his defending. Then Taylor who's a better defender than attacker (which I prefer in a full back imo as let's face it it's part of the defence) comes along will get stick because he can't attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screwdriver Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) This situation is a disgrace. The biggest injury crisis since the bubonic plague and all they've done is bought in one player...a freebie Dunno Deano is showing the exact same ineptitude towards transfers that he does for 2nd half substitutions. ie sitting on his hands. having a couple of meetings on the touch line then shrugging his shoulders and saying "erm erm yeah no well... the price goes down the closer you get to the deadline" Palace have a pensioner in charge who looks like he has more baggage under his eyes than the lost luggage department at bhx, yet still has the get up and go to take tosun from everton in time for their early kick off... and still see to his allotment! At this rate we will be going down sheldon to get riccardo scimeca out of the kitchen to play up front again. I expect to see Smith get mic'd up come on pitch tomorrow like big ron the game before we signed sarnders and make a statement of intent.

Fairy In Boots Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 No striker at home when we drop into the bottom 3, we have Hogan unless he’s unavailable? Also Elmo instead of Freddy, that automatically is a black mark from me, it’s a ridiculous decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather have a poor striker than no striker 2-0 down at home. On Dean this is abysmal no attempt whatsoever to win the game.

Well no, but in our case I do think its been coming. Not necessarily against City, but we've rode our luck a lot in the chances we've conceded in open play this season.

Villarocker Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I can understand not picking a striker but that midfield selection is baffling. No way would I have put Drinkwater in for his debut in this game and then throw Hourihane in there too just to make sure he has to do even more running.

NurembergVillan Posted January 12, 2020 Moderator Share Posted January 12, 2020 When Steve Bruce started the season with too few central defenders there were suggestions that he'd done it on purpose to get himself sacked. I don't see how it's any worse than Smith going into this season with Wesley, Kodjia and Davis. Particularly with the latter two being so injury prone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
