no shame in losing to the best team in the league, in my opinion bobby should have brought super kev on early in the 2nd half to put pressure on the 2 defenders they had booked, i'm pretty sure with a couple of signings we will be just fine this season. coyb!

Good post mate couldn't agree more.

It was obvious to all those with a White Stick and Labrador that we were getting done down our left flank. You cannot expect a striker to play in that position. We were exposed time after time and this is all Martinez's fault. Two wingers on the bench who would have given us width, protection down the flanks and a chance going forward by taking players on, and loopy drawers keeps them on the bench.
We've got the players to do well, we just need a manager to do the same now.

Since when did Mirallas or Deulofeu ever offer protection down the flanks!?
{Ed025's Note - your right there aflm..

aflm78-You make a fair point mate but I do have to disagree on Mirallas, he tracks back a lot more than people give him credit for, very rarely leaves Coleman or Baines exposed, his pace certainly helps and imo he would of helped Galloway a lot better than Kone.

all fair points but after last weeks great performance I think same eleven deserved to start again delboy and mirallas not long back from injury think we will see a lot more of them in coming weeks with the new signings we should have some real attacking options this season

Agree with everything you say there Cobyone. Early days team will change plenty from now on

You're right Swan as soon as I posted it I thought that it might be a little harsh on Kev wouldn't say he's fantastic at it but he does try to help. I think it was just that the steviegee's post annoyed me a little as it was being overly critical of Martinez for no reason.
