Don't know though. Minteh and maybe we can find a couple of 6 foot 3 trannies, might be what we need to have any chance of chasing down the title favourites in the WSL
Ok maybe. But i'm trying to make a point less about team selection, than the need for a bit more familiarity. It's really about the need to pick a group of 6, now (touch wood) players are coming back from injury and let them get used to our new system
Hinsh has done a great job, but i'm not...
I see it the same, but i'm not sure if we play this way due to the strategy of the manager or the available personnel for the first few games.
So for example, if we started a game with Ferdi (or Tariq) at RB and Pervis at LB, would we play more symmetrically with both full backs prepared to...
Do you think Hurzeler seems to go a little late on his subs?
I just think the intensity of “high press, high line, embrace the chaos up and down” type football means that we’re looking a little jaded in moments during matches. I understand some of this is due to players returning from injury...
Totally fair to point out Moder should have been much tighter to the lad who made the assist for the first goal. He could have stopped the cross and forced him wide. But at least he was getting back
But the ball was played to an unmarked player in the middle. That was just as bad.
But...

No place for Lamptey, Moder or Igor in the squad
Georginio comes in for Pedro...
Yes, it was and he continued this marauding in the second half.
Pervis is surely our first choice left back. What we need to someone to fill the holes when our full backs overlap
I guess part of rustiness is this kind of situational awareness
But I agree that Moder is, I think, 8th choice midfielder once Gomez arrives, (and i'm not sure that many other teams in the PL have an 8th choice CM as good as Moder) a move in January seems sensible
EDIT : I should add. Given...
Some sensible comments being made here.
We’re a club who brings promising young players through. We all need to brace for a few ups and downs
If you find yourself tempted to have a pop at Enciso after he does have a quieter game, run this question as a thought experiment ...... "Which 20 year...
How can you expect these top 6 to maintain their dominance despite spending twice as much as everyone else, if they might have to risk difficult fixtures in order to get trophies?
Far better for the competition to ease them through to the final. It makes it much easier to market in Africa and...
In some ways this a funny assertion to start a thread, we’ve not conceded masses of goals. However we are coughing up a large number of high quality chances and it seems only a matter of time before we start conceding more than our forwards have a chance to get at the other end
I found last...
