Weak links

[Rattea]

So even tho you were told this would happen at this point nearly two months ago you are still puzzled!!!!

Try getting over you prejudice and accepting when other people try and share some wisdom.

Look at the teams this has happened against now we have played all but one of them.

The answer is simple. It's not a dip in form or players suddenly losing it. It's STRENGTH OF OPPOSITION.

Read the comments above it appears it's almost universal that the signings since this time last year still about have not taken is to the next level.

Maybe entertain the fact that improvement has stopped and worse than possibly plateauing we may be slightly declining.

The current management has a transfer window to try and arrest that process. But here's a question. A year in and the failure of what appears so many signings would you be a little dubious to throw money at this current management team?

I'm puzzled as to how players who until a few games ago were in a side that kept 6 clean sheets are all of a sudden weak links! Surely the fact is that theres a lack of confidence through poor form and that effects everyone in the team, and the more average players show up, but the teams not much different to the one that was flying, so the weak link argument is a bit thin.

Every team has weaker players...the players mentioned are our weaker areas.
Look to improve from a position of strength...that is what good teams do.

January needs to address these area if we want to challenge top 2

How can people really think that Christie isn't an improvement over K Freeman? Yes we had Wisdom for a bit, but he was a loan signing from a premier league side - should we really be fielding a side of loans? And was Wisdom that great? He was solid but nothing special, most were giving him 5 or 6 out of 10 each week.

Has anyone actually looked at our team last season? This is the line up from the opening game:

1 Lee Grant
3 Craig Forsyth
4 Craig Bryson
6 Richard Keogh
8 Jeff Hendrick
9 Chris Martin
10 Jamie Ward
11 Johnny Russell
17 Kieron Freeman
19 Will Hughes
25 Jake Buxton

SUBSTITUTES

2 Adam Smith
7 Paul Coutts
12 Michael Jacobs
14 John Eustace
16 Ben Davies
18 Conor Sammon
26 Adam Legzdins

With the exception of Freeman, the starting line up is no different, only we have a bit more competition in our midfield and wingers. The young players are still learning and are not the finished article, I can't believe how eager people are to get on their backs.

We draw against the stron

So how does this explain losing to Charlton, Wigan and Leeds?
