I think the thing that this shows, is that the team is built to play 1 style and in 1 shape only and that was Evatt's. The entire team looks unbalanced, tons of near identical players, all decent enough for League 1, I'm sure but just not together in a single team.

I just think this is bollocks, no squad can ONLY play one way or one system, Schumacher has to take some stick trying to play similar ways, it is fucking shocking and whilst he is still the man gor the job he can't be immune from criticism on a day like today 

Charlton, Stockport, Rotherham and now Barnsley all taking 6 points off us this season. Shameful.

Only players playing today id keep would be:

Baxter, Johnson, Morly, Thomason and Collins

And still all of them would need to accept there's a good chance they wouldn't be starters next season.

Going to be a painful last few games i think, Evatt ball literally built into the squad.

I bet the end of season dinner is exciting

Rubbish.

The problem is throughout the team. Atleast 5 of that starting 11 not up to it for me and need fucking off in the summer, Santos, Johnston, Sheehan, Thomo, Mcatee should be nowhere near that team. Add to that zero decent options from the bench and it’s no surprise that we’re in this position. Jones, lolos, CMG also need fucking off. 

Big job in the summer.

Shoemakers out of his depth, bigger bingo machine than evatt, doesn't seem to have a favoured formation, yes I know they're not "his" players but fuckinell, we've regressed.

They picked the wrong scouser for the job, the correct ones team drew with Reading today

Least Northampton took a point. Dream is still alive even after that abject display.

No sorry, not having that todays entirely down to the players. We started off shite and it forced SS to make changes to keep the score down. Then we miss a couple of really good chances which would have changed the game but as usual we didn’t take them. The injuries then didn’t help but there’s nothing Schu can do with the spineless bunch he’s been left with.

What, the fact professional footballers can only play in one single way? Bollocks

Its not that they CANT play a different way, its that they cant play a different way and play at the same level.

Remember the 2005/6 squad? if we'd have tried to play like Arsenal at that time, we'd have been relegated.

So he can't be criticised for that starting line up? The same tactics of passing it around at the back?

He has to take some flack, it is wank. 

 

Thank fuck that's over

But we are trying to play like Aresnal and getting battered, they can play differently to this and be more solid. In fact they have, under Schumacher,  but he has binned that off and served up this shit today.

It's why i think we win comfortably on Saturday. Barnsley haven't won in 40 odd days, no permanent manager, and players seemingly on a beach now until a new guy comes in. We couldn't pick a better time to play them. A nice 2 or 3 goal win, and a Reading draw, pretty much puts us neck and neck (it's always the hope that kills eh)

@thebells

Sorry mate, but as soon as i read this, today just seemed inevitable. 

Seems like it's what we do 🤦‍♂️

What an absolute disaster this has been.

The players are ultimately to blame and evatt for signing crocked , weak mentally and physically weak players , ss is to take some blame also  a good managers job is to improve the players he as got weather that’s tactics training coaching .
were worse than when evatt was here at the minute

Made much more difficult when we haven’t got a striker that can win a header to be fair. Our inability to replace bodvarsson or even Jerome to some extent has been criminal.

So, which ones are you replacing then?

It isn't one game, but this season in particular has been very poor.

As I said before, if none of them are good enough, including the squad as a whole, which ones are you replacing?

No way on earth are they all going, so which of the "crap" are staying?

SS has his work cut out, but I reckon he will have an idea already- he won't agree with anyone though, that none of them are good enough. 

 

 

You can't replace them all. But any who can fetch a buyer can go. None of them have been good enough and none can have any complaints at being replaced.

Is Matt gilkes  on bench for them coaching staff looks like him

He has been dealt a shit hand, I am not disagreeing, but to say he is immune from criticism for that shite is bollocks 

Very lucky with the results today.

 Still in with a shot, can’t see it happening though.

Not good enough from SS so far for me.
