What is the point picking Lundstram now it is but certain he will be leaving in the summer now Wilder has left. All he likes doing is giving ball away and giving goals away

Of course this situation has arisen because we went into this season with 4 midfielders for 3 positions, and went out of our way to send one our on loan.

I don’t know who’s fault that is. But I’m sure it’s not Wilder’s. Oh no.

We started with 6 midfielders for 3 positions.
 
So Chris,s last pick and he still wouldn't drop lunny .

I agree he's not been in good form this season, particularly of late, and can sort of understand the clamour for him to be replaced in the team.

What I don't understand though is who people would expect to replace him at RCM, given there is no obvious choice, either in the squad or amongst the U23s. Both Bash and Amapdu have shown they're no better an option and I've eben seen the frankly ridiculous suggestion of playing Bogle (a natural RB/RWB if ever there was one).

Unfortunately, the catastrophic recruitment last summer did not address the glaring gaps in the squad, competiton at RCM and adding creativity / goalscoring threat being one of them.

This. The only player who could play there, give Ampadu is covering at the back, is realistically Norwood and he can't play in that role.

Our recruitment has backed us into a corner.

Ampadu and Osborn.

They won’t use Osborn in those 3 positions unless they are absolutely desperate.

Ampadu can play midfield, granted, but he can’t play any of the roles that the first choice 3 play (a bit like Berge, another baffling signing).

Osborn has played midfield plenty of times for us. Ampadu was also signed as a midfielder but has had to fill in at CB, hence why his first start for us after filling in for the banned Egan was as a defensive centre mid.

Whether you think they’re good enough is a different matter but we did start the season with 6 midfielders and injuries have since lessened our options.
 
If Stevens doesn't buck his ideas up he's going to get given a naughty nickname in the same vein as good old "Lunwank" or "Unhappystram". I pray for Stevens soul that this curse does not happen.

Osborn plays wide first and foremost. If it were otherwise why have they not been using him?

Ampadu was Jack of 2 trades and master of none, unfortunately. Plays 2 positions, neither of them well.

Because it’s either Osborn and Fleck, having said that they have used him in CM plenty of times.

Again, whether you think Ampadu is good enough isn’t really the point.

Great counter-point. Nice one. I initially was against Bogle at RCM, but having now seen him play for us a few times, and given Baldock’s return to fitness and the lack of options otherwise, I think it’s an option. Certainly not worthy of such a pissy response either way.

Fair enough. I probably shouldn’t be posting today, I’ve no patience and I’m extremely pissed off with this fucking shitarse club.

I know the feeling. I also think criticism of Wilder for playing Lundstram has also been ridiculous. We genuinely haven’t had options. I did think today was an opportunity to try something else though.

I think for a new manager coming in without any time to work with the players in training, playing a player in an unfamiliar position could seriously damage his credibility with the players and make the next ten games even more difficult.

Don’t get me wrong, I totally see why he’s gone with Lundstram.
