Been waiting to cool down before posting. Just been watching an 18 year old show more fight, skill and determination than our lot put together.
Should have won easily today, we are a much better side than them and better than most if not all in the league, but wehave to play to our strengths. I have often said I'm not a Warne out man and that's true but he needs to accept his failings. The current 3-5-2 isn't working for the following reasons. Playing Harding on the left side out of position to accommodate Woodys lack of pace has cost us 3 goals this season. The players who are supposedly wing backs can't defend and it gives less talented teams opportunities to hurt us.
Today was a perfect example of a better managed poorer side beating a more talented side with no direction.
We all love Wiles, he's one of our own but the manager's insistence on him being on the pitch whatever happens will spoil him, if Warne insists on finding a place for him then it ought to be wide left midfield, that's where we're lacking.
Johansson. Thought his mistake against the pigs was a one off, but now having doubts about him , could have done better with a couple of their goals today.
Ihiekwe. Not to blame for any of the goals IMO but seems more comfortable in a back 4.
Harding. Feel sorry for the lad, wants to play right back, the best right back in the division but Warne plays him out of position on the left, costing us 3 goals.
Wood. Poor today, and we can't keep playing Harding out of position to accommodate him as a back 3 he needs to play in a back 4 or not at all.
Wiles. Warne is spoiling the lad, the fans can see where other players are being overlooked for his presence. I love him but not at all costs.
Lindsay. Did very little and doesn't seem to be the player that he was.
Rathbone. Looks to make things happen, always busy and dangerous, why does the manager always take him off when he's always the best player on the pitch.
Ogbene. Tried hard usually hat 3 men on him, wish he could find a man with his crosses.
Sadlier. Only plays well against Donny, I don't know how much Peterborough offered but I'd have snatched their hands off, done nowt for me all the time he's been here, I hope he proves me wrong.
Smith. Did what does and scored a goal can't ask for a lot more.
Ladapo. I so want him to come good but today did nothing, wasted what chances he had and didn't look bothered, he needs to buck up or f##k off.
As stated previously I think we have the players to win this league properly managed, and I hope that they all reflect and learn from today, the management team especially.
3 questions I'd like to ask are:-
Where was Ferguson today?
What is happening to McDonald
And why did we let Tilt go if we need a left sided centre half.
