RudiRed Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Midfield is the problem for me, Williams looks like his legs have gone. 1 Quote Link to comment

Which actually means he hasn’t been that good today. It’s like Martin,he has won 3 headers today so not bad apart from the headers being 30 yards from goal so not so good Quote Link to comment

We have 3 of the most immobile cms in the league in King James and Williams along with a headless chicken in Massengo. It is very concerning. Quote Link to comment

What concerns me is the whole familiarity. It feels like last season again already. Very concerning. Any teams due to get point deductions this ti.e around? 2 Quote Link to comment

LondonBristolian Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 2 minutes ago, An Outstanding Human said: Goes way deeper than that, more to do with the culture of the club, which is solely at the door of Lansdown I think a lot of it is the legacy of past mistakes. I think Pearson had brought in the right players, and I rate the youngsters, but we have a legacy of badly thought through signings and contract offers that leave too little room for manoeuvre. I think moving Pearson on is absolutely the wrong thing to do but we are going to struggle until we can move out high earners and sub-standard players and reinforce defence and defensive midfield. 2 Quote Link to comment
Roadrunner Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I felt so positive at Bournemouth, two matches in i am not so sure. 1 Quote Link to comment
Marina's Rolls Royce Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I'm not going to have a melt down because it's such a lovely day and I'm away on holiday. However, if we lose could someone do a little boo on my behalf at the final whistle , if deemed appropriate? Quote Link to comment

Should we not expect better than last season or just more of the same. Quote Link to comment

I'm sure he knows the midfield is poor but it's well documented he has no money to spend.The solution is to sell Scott to fund new signings but the usual suspects who moan at everything will accuse the club of having no ambition and selling our best players the usual diatribe you get from City fans but as I said its the only solution available. 3 2 Quote Link to comment

Peter1450 Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Hope we can get an equaliser but, the suns shining , huge home crowd,great response for Stoney by all the crowd and the players do their usual of messing up what should have been a great day. Quote Link to comment

I’d like better but we need a defensive midfielder and a right sided centre back better than Vyner, plus cover for Semenyo. We can afford none of those things and I don’t think much will change until we get those players in . Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Going to be one of those days. For goodness sake, had to score. Quote Link to comment

I am rapidly coming to this conclusion too. I would be gutted to lose Scott but that could get us three players we sorely need. Quote Link to comment
Spike Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Didn't take long for us to have out enthusiasm drained. Last week I was still optimistic and thought we were hard done by but the amount of sloppy passes that have led to Sunderland opportunities has been woeful, we were unable to turn pressure against us into attack successfully either where Sunderland look dangerous when we lose possession.

Based on today we have little option but to sell and use the returns for some players - relegation fodder otherwise. Quote Link to comment

Mihai Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 We have really bad midfield. And the depth is concerning. We need more defensive and centre midfielders... We are going for a bottom half without that or even worse. The morale is down also after possibly two defeats. Quote Link to comment
And Its Smith Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 Jack Clarke has destroyed us this half. Quote Link to comment
