Preparation for matches appear to be almost non-existant.  

 

Gordon still looks like he can't run.  No one seems to want to fully commit to the press.  


Do you have suspicions about why Gordon looks like he can’t run?

At least when they are to be our creative force. Howe must be cynical this summer about getting rid of more players.

 

Wow, Gordon too?

The tactical change has brought some improvement going forward, but we just look so dead on our feet at times. The tempo, the energy is off.. Luton asserted dominance early and we havnt stepped up to it. Having said that I think we grow into this now, every chance to come away with 3 points if we start the second half brighter. What I’d give for a fit Barnes to take unfit/knackered Gordon’s place at the moment.

No way Howe does that. 

 

Yeah no chance. Its insane, we have players running on empty and options on the bench for them but we keep persisting. Almiron is completely gassed, we could easily have started Tino there.

About losing? No, think we’ll have a better second half and at least get a point here. 
 


We will definitely have a better second half and I wouldnt be surprised if we win it. I just wonder how long we can play the same team.

On a positive note, Botman and Schar. Wilson and Isak. Im excited about that.

Asides from ball watching on the corner, Miley has been good. 

I think the most pronounced issues we are seeing have to do with Gordon and Almiron being absolutely gassed. 

Wouldnt mind seeing Lewis Hall come on

We are going to have to stop basing our entire style of play around pace, as when we have injuries we have literally 0 backup plan, it's also leaving us massively open at the back and huge gaps everywhere.

Yip lack of players with real technical quality, running and physicality isn’t enough unfortunately, especially when we’re gassed.

Feel like we improved massively with Isak and Botman on. They couldn't deal with Isak.

 

Get Livramento on for Burn too.

 

Wish he'd kept Miley instead of Longstaff.


Think that was to protect young Lewis more than anything. Keep his confidence up.

Not going to questions Eddie's reasoning, but Miley is one of our few creative outlets, especially with Gordon knackered. Maybe a bit disciplinary on Eddie's end for the ball watching mistake

Well theres one player with legs who could play on wing but Howe hates him

That was a pretty shit first 45...some nice footie for a few minutes but no end product. Out-run and out-fought and deservedly behind. 

 

Happy with the early change of Isak as I felt we struggled in the final third when we did have decent possession.

 

Desperate need for improvement from Almiron and Longstaff. Gordon is probably not fully fit
