Wilmot is a very good modern CB. He's one of the only players I don't see much issue with. See my first post on this thread no Souttar WTF, No Souttar you bring Flint on after about 20 mins when it's obvious we're being totally dominated aerially in our box from set plays. Flint is shit too. Yes, flint is shit, but he won't be totally dominated in the air like Wilmot was today. I'd started with Wilmot as well, but when you can see he lose out on every ball in the box you need to do something. Neil waited till it was too late! Totally agree he should have made a change after 20 mins max but the change required was nothing to do with Wilmot it was Flint for Jagielka. If you really think he should have paired the old boys up you're crazy.

Point IS where the fuck was Harry !!!! Can’t play two games in a week for Stoke but ‘s on the plane to the World Cup !!! WTF ... joke of a club To be fair, for a squad like Australia, this could be his only World Cup. Why deprive him of that? The defeat yesterday was down to the manager’s stupid decision to replace Souttar with Jagielka as opposed to Flint. We should have gone to that game with Brown and Fosu, Laurent and Thompson. We should have set up solidly and just waited for their crowd to get on top of them and their spirit to die. They were absolutely there for the taking and we just rolled over because this manager is just like the last, no tactical nous.

I don't know whether the initial selection was stupid in anything other than hindsight but he had plenty of warning of what would likely happen before Bartley scored and did jack shit about it. See your mistake and rectify it whilst you can. Particularly considering our record after conceding the first goal not responding to being completely dominated aerially was foolhardy.

I knew what was going to happen 15 mins before when I saw the lineups and I have never been a bloody manager. I know football well enough you can't ignore physical attributes as glaring as Bartley's, it is a third of the game. I doubled down when no lineup change for Flint second half and made enough on the bet to go away for Christmas and forget about these error prone wankers for a month! AN should be doing better with what he has here and there but I'm not expecting much until after January when you can say he has now officially some of his players in.
