Burn seems to be caught up the pitch even when we've not had a corner or setpiece. Fuck knows what he's playing at, he's not schar that can actually dribble past people.

Our setpieces looked better tonight with him and hall on them.

Isak has been ineffectual most our games this season like.

Shouldn't matter that like. He showed the night that he can be a threat.

Should be ahead of burn if we wanna play a highline. All burn brings is height and leadership.

Tonali playing deeper and on set pieces was fantastic. The Joe's where great, hall and Kelly should start at the weekend. Krafth non stop running and big willy could of getting on the scoresheet had tino and big joe fed him.

It's Ambrose

He seems to be used a hell of a lot more than tonali on deadball. Don't you watch us?

We aren't a team full of midgets lad. Schar joelinton isak Gordon are all at a decent height to be aimed at. Use osula he's a unit if he thinks we are missing height in the box.

If we extend Longstaffs contract he'll most likely be on higher wages than he is now. So that's burn with an extention,miggy extention Wilson extension just waiting for Murphy now and we will never get rid of them. Time to blood the bairns in and discard these goodlads. Mitchell has already talked about moving players on and bringing through two to three youth players every year into the first team squad. We cannot keep dishing out contracts to players who are average at best.

Why Do the press let him get away with answers like that man? Tonali is our specialist setpiece taker in the squad yet howe has Gordon Trippier Longstaff taking them. Before we bought tonali fair enough but now he should be our mainstay on them. It's like having beckham in your team and letting Luke chadwick and Gary neville take them.

This osula isn't good enough spiel is bollocks by the way. He's a big lad that has the physicality already, is rapid but doesn't get a chance under howe. We used to hoy wood up top regularly whatever the the circumstances where and he didn't offer much, so why not give the lad a chance of creating or scoring a goal when we are trailing is beyond me. He seems he'd rather put on Murphy and Longstaff instead of a forward when needing a goal.

Yeah but referred to a striker in your tactics post. I think a more rounded striker would get our formation a lot more effective.

Yeah i know that but you mentioned the striker.

But that is what we need instead of letting isak just go missing in games. Wilson is finished so we should be looking for that type of striker.

Isak is a goalscorer and a real talent but as a striker he doesn't challenge for headers he doesn't rough defenders up he doesn't press a great deal his hold up play ain't great either. That's what I mean. Ba rondon mitrovic type that can bring others into the game.

When we had rondon at the club even when isolated he was a nuisance that's what we need.

I mean it's easy isak doesn't challenge for headers or give the centre half's a game physically. That would do.

Mitchell should be bringing in players to fix the weaknesses in the squad whether that be young players or ready made players. So a right winger centre half with pace. A new striker that offers more than isak. Take howe out of the equation as Mitchell is there for the long term philosophy of the way we wanna be run.

On the topic of asm we sold him for a pittance really and we now have no wildcard game changer to use off the bench. When you are sticking two keepers on the bench rather than having a dribbler that has it in him do something I'd say we are weaker with his absence.

Maybes start the game like that

When we are chasing I'd try alsorts to get back into it. That way you keep your best players on the park and in turn gives you a better chance of scoring.

We could of used the loan system for a right winger and centre half even a defensive midfielder or the free market. But we never seem to even bother with it it would of freshened the squad up aswell.

Need someone that would be happy with a director of football above him. So rafa would be a no go. A part of me still would like to see what he could do with our options we have.

Where's rafa nowadays?
