Garcia's Late Changes

[MattyC]

Are Garcia's late changes f***ing it up for us?

 

[Pavilionaire]

The late changes got us back into the game. I'm more concerned by an ageing defence that take 10 minutes to get going again after half- time.

 

[martin tyler]

Were you there? The changes helped no end and we looked very dangerous. In reality we should have won today but Wigan 3 chances 2 goals Brighton lots chances and 1 goal. There is the difference

Simple answer, no. Our strikers not being able to take their chances is '****ing it up for us'

 

[Miami Seagull]

No, his refusal to play 2 goalscorers up front is from the beginning (especially at home) is. Statistically Ulloa scores very 5th attempt on goal. No-one else is providing any other source. Even when Crofts was scoring it was about every 15th attempt from him. Must play with 2 natural goalscorers in the squad or this is just going to continue.

This. Buckley is looking dangerous again which I really am liking. Lua Lua can only do so much before 2/3 players gang up on him.

 

[Miami Seagull]

We only have one striker until CMS comes back and even then I doubt OG will play Ulloa and him together.

Who are these goalscorers you speak of? We have a threadbare squad and Oscar is working wonders. We completely outplayed Wigan today but haven't got enough quality players.

only when one of the changes involves bringing Obika on.

He's having to nurse players through on going injury problems and we've got another game on Monday so what was he supposed to do?

The whole 'one up front' business is a load of nonsense. If we play well, we create plenty of chances. Putting them in the net has been the problem. Having a second player up front is no guarantee we'll score more as we're then one creative player lighter in midfield. If it was that easy, everyone would play four up front.

Name them both and I'll buy you a Kit-kat.

Ulloa & Barnes

Ulloa & Barnes

Now I'm really confused, we don't have anyone at the club called Barnes.

The only one I can think of is the player who deputised for Ulloa all the time he was out injured.

 

[Giraffe]

In what way were they late? I actually commented it was refreshing to see a manager make some early changes. Certainly early enough to make a difference.

 

[Giraffe]

First change on 59 mins.

 

[fosters headband]

During the Paul Barber Q&A yesterday he stated that money is available during the loan window if Oscar wants to strengthen and I really hope Oscar he brings in another striker. Any injury to Ulloa and we would really be in trouble.

 

[Acker79]

The last sub on come on for us still played 18 minutes (incl injury time). The first played 35. How are these late substitutions?

The question is who's available that we can bring in though?
