Please please please buy a striker who can get us up the pitch or win a foul when in a bit of trouble.

Genuinely came on here expecting a bit of praise for ‘finally changing to 4 at the back and getting a tune of them like we all said he should’ and then making a tactical change that nullified the threat when the players shit the bed like they always do 😂

Oooh so like a 3 cb on the pitch kind of situation? With a player playing slightly out of position but also one he knows well enough, like for example…fellows? btw number of games Jelert has been back for has included a cameo off the bench where he directly replaced the attacking genius who we’re completely mis using in Fellows and managed to get an assist and one where he played RWB and we got a clean sheet. The final game he’s been available for was Boro which if said attacking genius who we’re completely misusing could shoot, we’d have faired a lot better.

Having someone available to play at right back isn’t an excuse is it? It’s an explanation. If you want to miraculously come up with a fit right back we’ve had available then we’re all ears. Also if he’s weak now suddenly changing the formation, if he does, then does that mean you’d rather he didn’t?

I know what your point was and to clarify I’m saying it’s not true that he’s been mediocre at best. Slightly before Xmas (when I last checked) he was at the top end of performance charts similar to the ones he was with us. He had intercepted the ball more times than anyone had in a game this season against Brighton and was one of the best interceptors in Europe, just like he was when he was playing for us. He was in the top 5 of pass success in the league. His match ratings (albeit these are subjective) are consistently high.

Not sure that’s true. Pretty sure his performances have remained pretty consistent with when he played for us.

He’s had more game time than Cameron Archer this season in the league btw. Doubt there would be people clamouring to get him more game time if we were being offered a profit on him by QPR.

I feel like if it really was a shocking decision he wouldn’t be going to QPR and more importantly he wouldn’t be unable to get in the team after some pretty bang average performances.

Yup, didn’t see that first tweet. Good find.

As far as I can see there’s no suggestion of a clique in his replies from House. He even says in his replies he likes Manning. The clique stuff is nonsense.

Don’t turn this back on me. Man up and say sorry to the lady and I’ll stop.

You don’t want to be reminded of your own words anymore? 😢

1) Missing key alternative profiles which I’ve posted about in the January transfer thread 2) No issues with either in the sense that I think we’ve changed all 3 over the last 13 months and the same issues rear their heads every time. Not the problem. 3) No idea and it’s not relevant. 4) Ultimately poor, obviously. But as I’ve said in here and elsewhere the biggest difference is how ruthless we were and now wasteful we are. 5) in what sense? I’ll be going and wanting wins. Get some better options in the squad and get on a winning run and anything could happen. If we show apathy in the window the season will fade out. The idea that any season is a write off in January is nuts though, for a whole host of reasons. 5) Not a fan of the owner, messed up and mixed ideas below that, so it the lacks the clarity and plan that we had when we went up last time.

Do you not see the pattern there? You said it yourself, the poorer teams take out the tempo by nullifying the space. The better teams/more proactive ones back themselves to create their own problems and take a risk themselves by leaving some. In those Birmingham/WBA/Charlton games what happens once we’ve been ruthless and gone 3/4 up? Their tactics change, space is nullified and our tempo changes and each game the 2nd half is pretty much shut down. I’m not arguing the tempo changes, I’m arguing that’s only normal. To get better tempo against teams who nullify your space you need physical or alternative player types to create it yourselves. We don’t have that. anyway we’re done here, we are not going to agree and we don’t see it the same way. Good chatting anyway.
