Not sure why Conor can’t seem to earn a start. A constant threat from set pieces? Why not??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robtaylor200 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Do you think that all of us working together could pick the right team, we would have 15 players out there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a home game we need to press up the field and attack, Engels gets turned for pace too easily whereas Konsa has more pace and will therefore provide better cover. Guilbert has been having a mare the last few games, that's plain to see, Elmo will steady the ship a little and also link up better with Trez. OR I just see it differently. Hause is just not at the level Konsa and Engels are for attacking football. Horrible distribution on him. Engels and Konsa have also lookwd far more solid than Hause has done. It's a partnership. Elmo is always shit. Guilbert might have been poor the last match but he's consistently been MUCH better than Elmo. So I dare say maybe you're the one who doesn't quite grasp football.

Sam-AVFC Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Realistically none of us know that much about football that’s why we come on here to squabble instead of applying for coaching jobs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted December 26, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 26, 2019 This is probably the sort of game I'd have thought Hourihane would spark in, it's not one where we expect to be backs against the wall, which is where he struggles. We'll see I guess. Lose this and Smith should be under pressure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awol Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 If the answer is Elmo than I don’t like the question. Pleased Jack is back in the middle but that back four is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I forgot how trashed by injuries Norwich were last time we played them. No fit centre backs and that was Wesley's last good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see I guess. Lose this and Smith should be under pressure. I agree with all of that. Decision time for the board. Do they twist, and maybe get a bounce from a new manager? Or stick with DS and hope for a turnaround. It’s a very difficult decision with such high stakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got one or several mistakes in them ALWAYS. Wouldn't be surprised if he was the one that ended up costing us points today. Absolutely moronic change.

Player like Conor are dropped at the first misplaced pass. He has a special gift with his set pieces, he’s almost worth a start for those some. I’d say give him a proper run in the side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bench them both would be my opinion. They simply aren't PL starting standard. Only reason Conor is benched and Wesley isn't is because we got **** all rotation options up top.

Equally managers, coaches, refs and players who know everything there is to know in and around football gets things wrong all the time. Even the very best ones.
