It makes me laugh when football supporter start talking about this mystical "plan b" as if it is the silver bullet to all crap performances and/or form.

 

Does anyone know what "plan b" actually is or what it should be?

 

agree, bench seems more important to some than first 11

We have to stop bashing our players FFS! If you check out the stats on chances created, shots taken and attempts on goal, we are right up there! It isn't about wide men getting to the line, we didn't do it last season either, christ, the amount of moaning that went on about it on here was endless. Antonio and Waigo were often brough on in the last 15 mins or so when their defence was knackered and ours needed an outlet. Oxlaide Chamberlain, at home at least, has got to the line more times than anyone this season, and there is no difference in a negative way. Lallana never got to the by-line last season, he won't this season either. Puncheon wasn't signed until January FFS! Barnard and Lambert have only played a couple together this season, Barnard is suspended and Lambert isn;t fit, isn't sharp, just not on his game. Hammond has created as many this season as he did last. When Connolly has come in both Hammond and Morgan have played it out wide or into the channels for Connolly.

 

Truth is, we started off sluggish, I think we laboured in the first couple of games and weren't ruthless enough. Then ML passed away (RIP) and this rocked our football club massively. Never underestimate the effect on morale when a member of the club dies. It is shocking and horrific and devastating and puts a different aspect on life and football. Then we've had Pardew gate, and yes whatever the reasons for his dismissal, it has disrupted the players, but that be the reason for the sacking, we don;t know, but it has been a destraction. Caretaker manager bringing nothing new and not being able to lift the players, new manager in, not enough time to make a difference yet.

 

Our players have had a tough ride so far, ML passing and Ap being sacked. We shouldn't feel sorry for them as they should be professionals, BUT, they are fu**ing human, so stop fu**ing moaning! Let's get behind them because, I believe, what they lack is DESIRE and PASSION. I see why they have lost it, but we can help them get it back. And as for SISA and the TRust, dis-fu**ing-graceful, LEAVE ML's family alone and stop bemoaning them to have apoke at Cortese. NI, needs to f**k right off after that, are we surprised he didn't get a ST, disrespectful MF!

From the games I've seen lambert is busy trying to provide the ball into the box because no-one else is. No Antonio, no papa, right now, no lalana, so lambert is doing it. Waste of his talents IMHO.

 

Spot on, RL is forced to spend far too much time out wide trying to get the ball - when he does there is never anyone in the box.

Decent post you can see that Pardews sacking had a massive affect on the confidence of the team up until then whilst not at it they did show glimpses of last seasons form two good 1st half performance a decent performance against Bolton then a 4 0 away win.

 

Since then we have been well below par I hope Adkins has had a chance to get into the players and build some confidence we havent become a bad side over pre season we just havent found our spark yet I am sure we will get it back wether it is soon enough to still have a go at promotion we will see.
