Have to say, even though we lost the back 4 and goalkeeper were really good tonight. Bodies on the line, kept their forwards mainly quiet, some decent saves. It’s a defeat but the defence were probably been the best they’ve been all season

The goalkeeper was good, Hoever was good, but the rest of the back 4 is awful.
They look more organised at the moment but neither of our centre backs can command a 1v1, they get rolled, turned, outpaced by everything they come up against

Yeah, just don't switch it around now with Thompson or McNally or Bonham. Keep them playing together!

Excellent tonight. Keep them together so they can build an understanding. No stupid mistakes and they didn’t piss around at the back with the silly passes.

A traffic cone would have handled James better tonight He's good in tight situations, good link play, takes his man on, and beats them, he struggled against James yes but so has every player whose been up against him this season he's not a left back, he's filling in

We’ve had tons of players like Gooch. I’ve not liked any of them. Edit - Hoever superb tonight 👍

Gooch was shocking.
Feel for the guy as he is no left back, and doesn’t shirk anything. However he is forever the wrong side of his man, gives the wingers acres of space, Bae covered him going AWOL so many times first half, I’m convinced that’s why he ran out of steam second half. bae should have come off after 50 minutes, worries the manager didn’t see this.
How can successive managers not see that a left back is not a priority I have no ide, if we go down, this is why!

To be honest I initially thought him and Hoever should be on opposite sides at least but we’re hamstrung there aren’t we?

We could all see it, the recruitment team came up with Cundle🤷🏻♂️

I’d go Leris right back, Hoever left back. I’d stick Thompson back there v Preston for sure which is far from ideal as well

We defend better with the four and with no square pegs - when is Thompson back from suspension though?
