The difference between Talay and Corica.

Talay sees Welly getting pinned back. Brings on Kosta to try and pin us back.

Corica. Does FUCK all till 70 mins. Ugh.

I’d have left Cabello on and taken king off but yes, one of the LBs has to make way

Surely Jayden should play on the wing

Much, much better…

Kucharski is good, he is a handful.

Context about all of this, Tim Payne is keeping us out and not looking too stressed doing it

It’s a great pivot of career from the former Australian cricket captain

I’m all for him as false 9, dropping off and causing carnage.

Patty Wood better be on the phone to his agent already though. If he wasn’t trusted to start this game then he should know he made the wrong decision when we begged him to stay another year. And assuming he’ll now move on at seasons end all his minutes should go to JK.

What have people seen fro JK to make them think he’s remotely suitable to play lone striker? 1000% a wide forward in this system?

The 5 minutes where he’s been the most dangerous player we’ve had, watch his movement

You don’t have to be strong/big and hold up the ball if you have quality movement and bring others into play, that’s the entire problem with this team, the lack of movement up front

Calm down everyone, Big Jack is on…

18 goals in 19 games as a CF last season?

In Rod we trust

Lolley off? Are you fucking serious?

He looked lively but wasn’t really his day imo, think we just need to roll the dice. You can see this is already descending into chaos ball now.

Comes back to this for me. What kind of chances are we primarily trying to create? If there is a definite plan I cant see it. It feels very ad-hoc which can work if you play fast and have players who can make stuff happen individually but we don’t.

Way too many balls in the final third are lofted hit and hopes.

I’m totally confused with who is playing where now

We just have zero ideas on how to break down a defence.

Two at the back, bratten in front… then everyone lined up on their 18 yard line
