The subs today

[Chezzy Blades]

Not something that would normally warrant it's own thread but what on Earth were those subs about?

- Godfrey off and One moved to right wing back
-McCallum put on at (I think?) left wing back, with Burrows seemingly playing somewhere between left back and left centre half.
-Cannon on, why not bring Seriki on put One up front with Ings to at least try and challenge Fry aerially?

Chong I did want on the pitch, but the square pegs in round holes around him were bizarre.

I do think our best way out of this is probably 352 given how isolated our strikers always look, couple with Barry and Brooks (although he looked good today) not being good enough consistently to warrant us playing wingers. The changes today however seemed part panic, part absolute madness. And a final point, what has Soumare done so wrong?!

Can't disagree with any of that.

Was Godfrey injured or just a tactical change (i use the phrase tactical quite loosely as i don't think this joker is able tk think along those terms).

Apparently injured, but Seriki should have been on in his place if that was the case.

Eventually he fell on the correct system but had fucked the options with his subs already so One was right wing back having come on left of a front three. Seriously impressively poor management. And yet One was very unlucky not to have an assist to his name

I thought One played very well today. I have no fucking clue what position he was meant to be playing but he did well wherever he was.

Its clear to me that selles doesnt fancy paying Seriki.

To keep playing the same players in the same positions in the same system that clearly is not working.

Peck totally isolated in the centre trying to play the holding role against 3/4 attacking midfielders.

WIde midfielders not tracking back and leaving full backs with 2 or more runners to cover.

Campbell running his nuts off with no other players within 10 yards of him.

Utterly baffling.

Campbell ran nowhere as he's done for the last couple of games, Ince tried and did more in 15 mins than he did all game.

I think Soumare must have shagged Selles' wife...
