massive rebuild is needed. I feel Jake O brien and branwaite together is too soon either of them needs an old head who is a leader next to them. Wouldn’t mind OB staying at right back. Patto just won’t cut it I don’t think.

2 new centre midfielders. Garner is not good enough if we want to move up the league. Gueye great servant but needs to be a bench option.

Some pace on the wings and a new striker. Ndiaye and alcarez to fight it out for number 10 spot. Also can be an option on the wing if needed.
 
…..maybe a reality check, posters were generally happy with the team selection, Ndiaye, Alcaraz & McNeil starting but despite our ‘best players’ on the pitch I thought our only real intent was from a continual barrage of crosses.

Terrific ball in from Alcaraz for the first, threatening crosses from McNeil but we didn’t particularly give their keeper much to do.

We’ve been fed a diet of mediocracy, fans chuffed we have the likes of Ndiaye and Alcaraz but maybe they’re just a baseline and we need better.

I’m just glad we have Moyes at the helm, he’ll certainly know who he wants next season, he has a huge task on his hands. McNeil gets my MoM vote.

If O'Brien goes to wing back it will probably mean the end of McNeil (no bad thing) as He's too one-footed on the left and always cuts in on the right side needs a proper overlap.
 
Be nice if they could show abit of urgency and energy in the last 3 games, sick of the boring slow football, happens in lots of games to be fair like but just speed things up abit ffs
Today for me totally highlighted the number of incomings we need. All season it seems I have watched us reach the opposition final third and stop. The ball is then played square or backwards.

Today I saw on about 3/4 occasions in the second half, Mykolenko receive the ball in space with an opportunity to push it down the line and run. Each time it was played back or square inside. He is not alone in doing that.

We need some ability to get the ball to the dead ball line and cross to attacking players who have anticipated the same.

We have not grabbed a game y the scruff of the neck all season.
