Simms just miles off what we need, can’t control the ball to save his life. EMC busy tackling himself trying to be too clever with the ball.
Despite all the deficiencies we still get a point without that idiot in goal.
Teams have spotted our weakness. Such a high proportion of their attacks were down their right.Mason Clarke and Da silva are a hopeless combination. Defensively it’s non existent.
Sakamoto even when not performing offensively supports MVE and they work well as a combination - our left side was under 11 stuff when defending
If you have 3 men on you, it means we have 2 men spare elsewhere. You therefore need to draw them in and then move the ball quickly to exploit the overload elsewhere on the pitch. At the minute he's holding on to the ball, having too many touches, slowing the game down and allowing teams to swarm him out.Teams have spotted our weakness.

Bit harsh on EMC but I think sides have researched him as well - often up against three men
This part at least is very true.Sakamoto even when not performing offensively supports MVE and they work well as a combination
Taking too much time on the ball has been a real weakness throughout the season.I'd you have 3 men on you, it means we have 2 men spare elsewhere. You therefore need to draw them in and then move the ball quickly to exploit the overload elsewhere on the pitch.

We lose 2-1 to a team who are very good and made them panic/battle for the win and gave them a goal (arguably 2!) and we're dishing out 4s and 5s
Collins v.poor for 2nd goal, Kitching and Grimes at fault for 1st.
If we had snatched an equaliser then amazingly these 4s and 5s would turn into 7s or 8s
Apart from the 3 I've mentioned no one else near a 4 or 5
Agree although Grimes, Kitching and Allen to blame before we get to CollinsI thought Collins was poor for the first goal also. Instaed of spreading his body to block the ball, he just seemed to wimp out and made no challenge at all.

In his biggest critic, but the first goal was nothing to do with him.
