no fucking midfield

Whilst this is not good we are a better outfit than last year, mind you that's not hard...

'Strue, but Lambo makes it harder than it needs to be with many of his selections and tactics. Football is a simple game and we have naive players who need clear and consistent roles.

[Matt Collins]

We're gifting them so much room to get decent crosses in. Appalling lack of closing down

The fullbacks are atrocious, but they're getting no help either. We're playing 5 at the back, you'd think we'd be able to defend width, but when they spread it we're wide open.

Surely the 532 is a main reason why the full backs aren't getting support? Who would be supporting them? I hate that formation

[Irish villain]

wheres midfield

I see a big empty space in midfield occupied by red shirts.

[Rigadon]

Getting the 'hoof' 'pisstake' from SOuthampton (and Swansea, and Albion and plenty of other provincial clubs) is really, really galling. 

[itbrvilla]

HOOOOF!

[Fergal]

We sold it...

[Ron Manager]

18-4 in goal attempts.
