First half he was passable but second half he didn't have a scooby-doo;- as evidenced by Sam Field having to tell him that it was actually a goal-kick when their keeper wasted a minute taking it from 20 yards further forward, outside of the box. |

By your user name I can only assume you've seen a different angle ? |

Wow, some slightly OTT responses on here today (as usual, I guess). No credit in the bank from 2 wins on the road in 4 days then ....
We weren't that bad. Have played far worse many times this season and picked up points. Just seemed in every move we made there was always one mis-placed pass.
Think the ref played a part also. So poor. Killed any momentum we had with his endless poor decisions and procastinations. |

I think he will go with Edwards and Fox and all being well, will change Fox after 60 or 75. I've got a slight feeling that he will bring Cook on for Fox so that he has an experienced CB alongside a 21 year old.
Hopefully this means no Ashby in the squad and coming on for the opposition for the last 15 minutes. |

Question about Madsen. Do you think he can improve his speed and stamina ? Let's face it, those are probably the two main things which set Morgan apart from him and stop him from getting in the team. I would say no, he won't be able to, but I'm interested to know if the coaches will be able to turn him into the no. 10 that we hoped we would have buzzing around between the lines. |

As I said before, I think he was hooked. But there is one mitigating factor. He was asked to come on in Smyth's position and keep things going. I don't really see any signs of being able go past players or pass and move from him so I'm a little bit bemused why Marti keeps on trying this. |

I reckon he was OK and Marti hooked him. He might have been clipped but I think he would have wanted to stay on.
I don't have any issue with it. |

Yep Paal was quite good. And Ronnie Edwards, apart from at the death when he let the ball bounce. Apart from that he was good. |

Both liabilities, not good enough to be starters/regulars and not really of any use as impact subs. Get rid. |

Well said mate. Field is excellent. Look at him in tight situations. His timing and execution of the tackle is excellent and he can get us out of very tight situations. He is an excellent player. Probably our best outfielder if you look at his marks out of ten over the course of this season and the last three. I'm not having this criticism of the fact that he's not Akos Buzaky further forward .... |

Superb player. Also, thought he was doing well earlier in the season when he was playing deeper and being criticised for not affecting things further forward. Ditto Smyth. Loved him earlier in the season also even when he wasn't getting to the by-line so much. |

Yep Varane was better than Colback. But he should be back, and hopefully good for 90 minutes on Tuesday. Marti is doing pretty well at playing the cards that he has been dealt. He continues to pull rabbits our of hats. |

Yep, I still think we need to rein in the expectations. We have a threadbare first team squad which has required us to call on kids and has good players regularly on the treatment table. It is only going to take 2 or so more injuries and we are going to have to use the likes of Madsen, Ashby and Andersen etc who are not up to the rigours of Championship football. |

I thought we played well. The formatting (shape and organisation) and application and decision making were by and large good. We dealt with their pace very well.
One or two players are not 100% on top of their game but I guess it is never possible for everyone to be at 100% for 90 minutes in a game. The usual suspects were very good - Field, Dunne, Smyth and Kolli, when he came on. No one had a shocker or let the team down.
As stated in the other message, we are progressing well. We have definitely arrested the ineffectiveness of the first third of the season. |

Difficult to pin down as quite a few players move around a bit, e.g. Morgan last home game was moreorless playing right mid first half.
If I had to say what Marti does I would say:
- Back 4
- cdm in front of the centre backs (varane),
- no. 8 up an down in front of the defence and behind the attack (Field)
- no. 10 wandering (morgan)
- rw, lw and cf (smyth, chair and frey) [Post edited 17 Jan 16:57]

Brilliant news. This kid has got everything it takes and he can be the answer up front. I think Alfie can be one of our striking options too.
Priority for me now is a LB and no. 10. Morgan is good but not sure he can go past players in the way that is needed from a no. 10. |

Definitely sign him. Admittedly doesn't go past the full back on every occasion but he more often than not wins a free kick in a good position if he doesn't go past them. Plus he deserves to be signed alone for his amazing attitude. Gets regularly assaulted by 6ft centre backs but gets up every time and goes head to head with them. Amazing player. Sign him up. |

I disagree. He has the raw tools. Just needs to polish them. I can see him making it. [Post edited 15 Jan 17:51]
