Whilst your entire post is toe curlingly embarrassing can I just pick up on your point about Jatta.
The man is hardly ever facing the ball. It needs a bell in it to give him a clue. He has the uncanny ability to never be able to read the flight of a ball. Id honestly be sending him for an eye test!! Perhaps he has been concussed since Xmas?
His first touch is so bad he seldom gets a second. His chesting technique makes me f***** weep.
Strikers should come towards the ball arms up and out thereby denying defenders to get around him then he should lean back slightly taking the ball high on the chest to allow it drop at his feet. He runs at it bends down and leaning forward, chests the ball years away from his body. It's awful
Who is coaching him??
He's physically the ideal target man.
How often of late has he run into the right or left channel to receive a ball from Bedau or Macari/Macdonald on the other side?
None is the answer
For 2 months now he's been bloody awful.
Yet he plays!
He plays because Stuart Little doesn't have any other idea.
Why hasn't he given Traore or Morias a chance of late. They honestly could not have done any worse
