Yea let’s turn on our best manager of recent times.

And now our best midfielder. Like him or not, think he’s overrated or not, he is our best midfielder and we need him to start playing again.

He was poor today, and has been since he came back, but he doesn’t suddenly become shit.

Re his demeanour. I assume most people here have played football - or you can even equate it to work - naturally your head is going to drop somewhat when your constantly losing games and have no faith in the players (colleagues) around you. Doesn’t mean he wishes he left.

But we love a worst case scenario on here.

Sheaf is absolutely our best player and the one I would make the focal point. He was poor at Preston but honestly think it came from a position of trying to much.

He was trying to be the goal scorer or too much an ambitious pass and think that’s just due to the pressure of the situation. Would love to see a 5-3-2 with him as DM dictating the play.

Sheaf will be gone in January or at the very best, next summer.

Can slag off his current performances all we like, it'll be a huge hole to fill, and it'll be a far bigger hole than O'Hare was

Back on a free in January? It would make for an interesting chant?

Imagine they're bedwetters not giving a new player enough time?

That a didn't take long - O’Hare 3/10 – Non-existent and starting to annoy me now. Frustrating again and not a threat. Lost the ball easily, went to ground pathetically and weakly and not able to hold the ball. Just looked completely lost and not a factor. Needs taking out of the team. Just looks a bit of a nothing player to me. I keep hear he works hard but I am not seeing it. Teams just knock him off like a fly.

Surprising, always thought O'Hare was pretty strong for a smaller guy. I do miss him, but the things they are saying sound familar, wasteful, and flatters to deceive. He seemed to have got rid of that when he came back strongly in Dec/Jan last season. Then he lost his place.

Showing why he failed to get an upgrade from the Championship.

But still performing below the levels he showed here by the sound of it.
Even if only based on work rate.

He should have signed something in January when he was in that purple patch of good form. He's just regressed to the mean now.

To be fair his comeback was very strange - he came back almost totally the opposite player. Pre injury he covered so much ground both pressing and supporting attacks and was very tidy with his feet but never looked like a goalscorer - rarely shot and was poor when he did.

Post injury he came back looking like a natural goalscorer but posibly having lost some of that mobility. He obviously regressed during that season but I think a lot of people put it down to having an eye on his next club.

Sounds like he might have just reverted to the worst of both worlds tbh which wouldn't really surprise me - that hot streak was extremely unrepresentative of his career until that point.
