sydney_saint Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 Might be the last we see of Holgate. Wasn't really putting much effort into it either So often was just lazily jogging back. Unsurprising he got caught out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 2 of Charles, Downes and Smallbone should be starting AT BEST. They are 3 very 'ordinary' midfielders, nothing much creative about them. We have Alcaraz on the bench AGAIN. Is there one forum user that would put a fit Alcaraz on the bench over, say, Smallbone? Obviously the manager sees more than we do but I can't fathom it otherwise. Game's not over though and, I suppose, at least the bench is strong. Manning for Holgate. Do they admit they fucked up with Holgate? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 Utterly mental passing move out from the back. Now we did get a corner form it in the end. So that sounds decent. But we had every opportunity to pass it forward a lot earlier, and chose to not bother looking and play back and slowly across. It's that lack of intesity in pretty much everything that makes so placid looking, and easy for teams to regroup and pick off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 'Boro looking to pick out Jones in that free gift zone exists behind our tucked in full backs. A minute later... We push up, so look a bit desperate racing back to defend. Ball goes back into the free gift zone and they get a shot in. Fortunately, not even Baz could get out of the way of it on time, so it got saved. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintBobby Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 This is match 9 and I've seen enough I think.

A) no you wouldn't, he's a better creative force Vs Smallbone and I don't particular dislike Smallbone but you can't have nothing coming from the CM area and Charles isn't the one to get dropped B) The criticism is justified because he's an utterly atrocious goalkeeper C) Alcaraz may well have been shit this season BUT he's at least been good at various other times. Baz has yet to have a good game. At all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
