News of Ex Players

He was world class.... never replaced him Garner looks the part - until Gana came back in at 36 years old & messed our midfield up ..... Monday night we were looking good in midfield til then ....

…for an old fella you’re ridiculously ageist. Don’t be fixed of mind and fixated, judge footballers on their performance not on how old they are.

To say Gueye has ‘messed up our midfield’ since his return is frankly ridiculous, the bloke played on the winning team in an AFCON final a week or so, I don’t think anybody finished extra time stronger, he’s a remarkable athlete.

Afcon I tried to watch that tournament - they were like testimonial games - Senegal were favourites any way & what a farcical finale in that final -
Eggs did you notice Gana his two passes ball out of play & hit the advertising hoardings other posters have posted - he messed our midfield up particularly James Garner who has been playing great when Gana was away at the CM role- as he takes his role over in CM & is slow - apart from a cross & he hit the bar - his general midfield play was poor - first half we had a breakaway on two yards too slow .... it was like the Leeds player taking the ball off a child ....
HA will probably go back to PNE why DM played him as a no 10 ? - he will behind Tim when he gets fit anyway -


DM has the ability to mess a winning team up he does it regularly a good win away a team unbeaten at home in ten games - The same young midfield should have started - I will agree we did miss Jack Grealish on Monday night as he holds the ball up & draws players in gets us many freekicks & is very tricky playing for us - Nydaye looked a bit stale too - but Dwight was awful too - a poor first half lucky to go in only 1-0 down -
It was like a team of strangers with DMs changes - nice to see the injured players back KDH etc a good 2nd half without many chances though ....

On the plus point Barry is greatly improved a fantastic goal out of nothing .....1-1 - I would have taken that after that poor first half ....
 
- Nydaye looked a bit stale too -
agreed, both gana and illy were sub par. I'm going with celebrating, maybe squeezing seeing some family in, and then as quick a long haul flight back as possible. Maybe not enough recovery time. HA advanced was a fail. The oblivious LW situation was a fail. Losing the totality of MF was a fail. The first half reminded me of how feckless and vulnerable we looked vs brentford. It was very very bad. And was called out and critiqued in the MDT (match day thread).

We didn't lose, we turned the game round and we got two important players back with minutes played each. Monday was not good, but wasn't a disaster.

When bogle was identified as the issue, it should have been Aznou to LW to cover Myko and if McNeil stays on he goes AM.

We have a problem when reverting to our recent former system, when the tough gets going they start playing like Doucoure is still here running down and pressing in AM. We don't have that player or that option anymore. Instead of panicking we need a bit of composure.
Not sure if it's a home thing and expectation from the support. More patience and composure required. KDH could be that saviour, sadly JG is out.
