Are we just relying on one player all season to create and give us a spark in attack?

 

[CopenhagenBlade]

Seems like it

 

[shorehamview]

Yes we are.

I'm embarrassed to be a blade tonight, even through our dark time, I was always proud to be one, but tonight I'm struggling ♥

Hope not, he was bang average tonight.
Not sure why we played him for 90 mins when we need him v stoke

Give over. We’ve lost plenty of league cup games

 

[sufc323]

Yeah, and at the end of the season we’ll have another gap to fill. Great forward planning

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Is he too fucked/tired to play Saturday now after playing 95 mins?

My thoughts too. Same with Arblaster. Should've also kept Peck, Bamford and BBD benched, albeit I understand the desperation.

Looking at the bigger picture, reading the match reports, I can understand exactly what you mean.
Tonight was just another additional issue to an ever increasing condition of negativity.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

In the first half he was the only one at least trying to take it to Fleetwood.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Shane our best formation so far is probably the one he is less likely to shine in as he's by far the most talented

Could he play the Duffy role? No idea, but maybe worth a try.

 

[Bladesman]

He’s already giving the look of someone questioning why is he here.

He’s frustrated at those around him.

 

[FTPE]

He's obviously quality, but his energy, belief and a bit of naivety is actually a breath of fresh air.
Its almost like we need more youngsters rather than 30 somethings.

 

[BladeByChoice]

Could he play the Duffy role? No idea, but maybe worth a try.

Before we start looking at players to play the Duffy role or the JOC role or the Didzy role, maybe we should be looking for owners to play the Abramovich role or a manager to play the Klopp role.

Just a thought.

There’s no one else

 

[brownblade]

Do our players even have roles anymore?!

 

[Snowflake]

Do our players even have roles anymore?!

No ! Mainly Lamborghinis and the like.

 

[FTPE]

Well, yeah

I guess Ryan One would be expected to make an impact too.
I cannot see any sustained spark coming from Ayew, Bamford, Campbell and Cannon.
They have all had more than enough opportunity to show that they were capable of something better. I am hoping Bamford is just going through a rough patch and might be carrying an injury and that he will dramatically improve after the international break.
My only positive feeling at the moment is a vague hope we might go for Cleary again in January IF the financial side of things is better.
But that hope is offset with the potential loss of Peck, Seriki and Cooper.
We desperately need a goal scorer in the mould of Sharp. None of the aforementioned strikers are that type of player. We do see some good balls played into the 6 yard box but there is no-one anywhere near them so they are not even vaguely a goal threat.

 

[Rodley]

Give over. We’ve lost plenty of league cup games

WORST DEFEAT EVER since the last one.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Give over. We’ve lost plenty of league cup games

And there's plenty more humiliations waiting for us where they came from.

 

[SwissBlade]

WORST DEFEAT EVER since the last one.

And until the next

This is the type of player that we should have had more of this last transfer window. Young, Fast, direct, strong and skillful premier league loan. We must get a few more of these players in January if we are too have a 'decent' season. There must be litterally dozens of them sat on their arse right now itching to get out and play regular footy.
