In fairness to Geoff, I would play Sky Blue Sam up front at the moment.
I think the reason we look good at the back but show no urgency going forward is, the attacking players (the wingers, attacking midfielders) have no belief in our strike force to put the ball in the back of the net. With Armstrong the players knew there was a good chance if they played the ball in Armstrong would score. With the current attacking options i dont think the players believe if they put the ball in someone will finish it.

The teams at the top of the Premiership are still doing the same thing , this isn't football manager this is how modern day football works , players and agents holding out for the best possible deals

Jesus. I wish everyone would stop with the moaning as if it's the end of the world.
Yes we are still very far from the finished article HOWEVER there is always positives to be taken from any situation.
Cian Harries has looked quality since the first game.
McCann looks like he is going to really help us until January.
We've conceded 1 goal in 3 leagues games.
Once Jones and Reid start to play more I can see them replacing Murphy and Maddison and hopefully once sordell is back really look like 3 dangerous attackers.
Listening to Mowbray he sounds as if he knows the score and understands players need to be brought in and hopefully he can maybe sign or get some decent loans in who can put the ball in the back of the net.
And as a final note..there's always fans worse off than us...look at Sheffield United and count yourself lucky!

I think you'll see the best of Reid once we get some proper strikers in.

Looked great first half in Saturday IMO and had half hour tonight in a dire game anyway.
Give him a chance
I think Arma is a no go, but we definitely need a striker. At the end of the sky blue broadcast im sure i heard one of the commentators say that TM was hoping to get a striker in by the end of the week. hope i wasn't going mad! Have had a couple of drinks mind, so might just be wishful thinking!

Sorry this is a shit start we have played 3 shit teams what happens when we play someone who can score goals?
Luckily for us they were as bad as us up front.

too greedy, I will give him a change but he's not the right player to play a front 3. In fact I'm not even sure if its being greedy or hes devoid of a footballing brain.
Hes not good enough in a system that mainly attacks with only 3 players.

We're so close to being a great team that can challenge at the top.
Thomas/Tudgay not good enough. Tudgay was just slowing our attacks down and at no point was bursting into the box.
If we had a player like Armstrong for these first 3, we'd be on 7/9 points but we've had to wait to bring a player like that in which is fine as it's a marathon not a sprint as we found out last season.

Made a few bad decisions tonight but was all in all a lot better than Thomas and Lameiras. Think he may divide opinion all season tbh but he's a winger. He's never gonna always beat his man so lets not get on his back.

Ehhh?
Nobody on this forum would have taken 2 points from 3 league games against Swindon A, Shrewsbury H, Bury H.

I would say he was marginally better. I agree your comment about wingers, think he'd be alright in tbr right formation, but in a front 3 in that formation hes the wrong player.
I agree he won't always beat his player, but he doesn't always have too, he doesn't always have to take his man on. He ripped us apart last season running from deep from a very wide position, but I just can't see it working in this formation.
Jones was also poor to be fair.

Chief Commentator!
I called before TM was asked that he'd say someone will be in by Saturday.
Gone are the days of a Thursdsy being a day for signings! Now it's all about just having them in for Saturday's. Just not sure which Saturday he keeps referring to!!!!

Bloke near me was going to have a heart attack he was getting that angry.
You could see him looking around for things to moan about.
Car parks gone up
Foods gone up
Mowbray told a bloke on the radio imagine how bad and it's worse
Sisu won't spend any money on players, it's full of loans
That's the problem with loans they don't care
Mowbray will walk
Really getting himself worked up.
Had to keep asking which player was which though

It's 3 games so you haven't been shown to be right yet. If we are in a relegation fight come April then feel free to gloat then.
