The standard of football by both these teams, both attacking and defensively has been world class.

I feel like giving them a standing ovation. It's different class.

They're playing a different sport Gary!

Adomah lacks the speed to be an out and out winger.
I hesitate to criticise Adomah because I've been on his back for a while. However, he is not good enough!

Why is that though? He was fast enough and good enough to be a near ever-present for the team promoted in second place nine months ago.

So there is demonstrably a player there that is good enough, but if he's not being used properly then he's going to look mediocre.

Yep we simply don't know how to perform as a cohesive attacking unit.
Numerous times on Saturday the ball went forward with one of the front men picking it up.
The rest of the team, including the 'midfield' were in our half and walking out, or jogging at best to get up with play.
The front players are so isolated from the rest of the team it's a frigging joke.
AND, the reason the team jog or walk out is because they ain't fucking fit !

For the second midweek game on the bounce I decided to keep my season ticket in my wallet and stay home.
I can't say I have had one second of regret.

You are absolutely right, they are not fit enough to show the intensity needed. We've not been fit enough for seasons.

Fitness is what enables you to press and to win possession.  Our players always seem to be walking or jogging.
