Saint Matty 76

One or two poor performances under O'Neil and St Mary's goes again. Would be stupidity.

Would be interesting to see Charles in a proper box-to-box role as he is one of our few progressive passers. Not seen that enough from Jander yet and it’s definitely not Romeu/Downes game. I feel like the three of them together would be a bit overkill and we really need to try to play Azaz into form. McCarthy Jelert - Wood - Stephens - Welington Charles - Romeu Fellows - Azaz - Scienza Stewart

Would be putting a promising young coach in a big situation far too quickly, but nothing would surprise me with SR.

He even looks eerily like Selles, getting worried. Good for him, hope he continues succeeding with the U21's. Not what we need now though.

Awful for the goal and so lucky not to bobble another one to make it 2-2. McCarthy is still a depressing lesser of two evils.

An unconvincing win was best case scenario manager-wise. Those last 15 minutes were embarrassing.

Stupid tackle. Don't see us lasting 10 minutes like this.

Incredible.

First time we've had a two-goal lead in the league since May 2024.

What a player.

Exactly my thoughts.

Can't believe I'm watching Armstrong run around doing nothing as a lone striker again.

Fellows will largely be further forward anyway, doesn’t really matter if it’s a “5” on paper. Good team I think. 2-0 win.

To be fair to MLG, I'm pretty sure it legitimately is not possible? I've definitely tried! There are some definite improvements but on the whole it's a huge embarrassment for SI to release this mess after 2 years. The game will likely be saved by modders who have already done good work to increase the tragically slow UI speed, but I'm baffled about what they've been doing in the build-up to this game. Some of the design/functionality errors I encountered throughout the Beta were remarkable. Looks like they've catered for the console version, which has also ended up going down horrifically in terms of ratings/feedback as well.

They’d probably be smart to announce it on the pitch before Saturday’s game to try and get some positive feeling in the ground, if he’s guaranteed to not be ready for the match regardless.
