Creativity poor

You expect a thread bare squad to compete on the level we started the season at for a full seasons man we can battery get a team out it’s the same players every game some have played far too many games

We don’t have a thread bare squad at all. And every other team has played the same amount of games as us. Not really sure what point you’re trying to make here at all.

Are you joking ? We have just had likes of Harrison jones on the bench who we have just realeased man who comes in for xhaka or Sadiki ??? Was only diarra who’s trusted to even play centre mid and he doesn’t even play their positions

One player who’s not relevant at all. We’ve got as many options as most other non-top 6 teams. Just because Regis chooses not to use players like Gerty, Talbi, Mayenda and Rigg half of the season doesn’t mean they aren’t available to play

Gerty is clearly away rigg is nowhere near good enough and I dunno what’s going on with talbi out squad is absolutely nowhere near good enough, how is he not relevant he’s been on the bench for us which is a good indication we are short

What depth do Leeds have? Or Bournemouth? Or West Ham? Or palace? What exactly are you expecting from a newly promoted team?

We aren’t in a relegation battle marra, if you want to compete at the top end we need better players to be able to rotate the team too man sure starters no competion. I’m not complaining it a great season but it was always gonna tail off because of the squad depth

Where did I say we were?
 
It’s the inept tactics.
Today Talbi had the ball. Inside their half.
He gave it to cirkin and sprinted forwards into a free position.
Cirkin hoofed it back to the keeper.

Time and time again we play this way. The midfield give up making and forward runs as the ball goes sideways or backwards in an attempt to lure out a pressing game.
One dimensional risk averse play.

Feel for Regis. The back room team are lower substandard league quality. Imagine Xhaka being coached by proctor?
 
Le Fee was shit. Anybody else notice? Too busy wanking over his Mag nutmegs....seems a long time ago....he isn't a number ten. Sorry to spoil the party. He's a number 8.
 
Its a defend first mentality that stiffles our creativity. Even when Regis talks about wingers, it's about their defensive qualities over speed or ability on the ball.

Personally, I wonder if Regis would prefer wing backs? They seem to suit his tactics more than wingers do, but I'm not sure if he's the one who makes the calls on who comes in.

Going a man down didn't help yesterday, and I think we beat Wolves if Ballard hadn't seen red, but these tactics are a concern for next season.
