Lightweights 19:17 - Oct 19 with 882 viewsnumptydumpty

The new players all seem to be extremely timid in manner and play.

Bottle out of challenges and easy to roll over.

To buy a few of these players, who do possess other qualities is absolutely fine provided there is a balance.

Zero players with a strong mentality.

Herein lies the problem

Even though they are older when we had players like Hayden and Colback in the team there was a lot more steal in centre mid. We are very lightweight now.

Never knowingly right.

Yep. That game was lost in center mid. Like the one before it. And the one before it. And, effectively, the one before it vs Hull because Varane got a red.

And, that, IMO goes down mainly to the CM signings - playing Madsen in a CM pair is like playing with 1 CM. While I think he has some skills, I also think he was not what we needed, is entirely unsuited to our team and seriously question if he ever will fit. Varane simply seems not ready yet, but surely has to be better than Madsen. The CM recruitment was well and truly messed up and its going to haunt us till Jan.

Regarding others, I stick to Dembele and Saito being good signings, but suffering from our CM problem; and Morrison and Nardi also being good signings. Agree the two RBs and Celar have so far looked pretty lightweight.

Totally agree the midfield is an absolute mess and we are playing a system the players don’t seem to believe in and are nowhere near good enough to play in.
