And soft touch is certainly a label that can be applied to us this year. I was personally fond of using the unsuccessful attempt at the quadruple as a big reason for this year’s decline. The emotional, mental and physical cost it took etc etc. But it’s a decent length of time ago now, so let’s just get over it already. The side just got too old for the system it plays and needs gutting. All of the midfield and most of the defence, so no problem there then.
Bourenmouth – Kieffer Moore – Basically the Welsh version of Andy Carroll, shouldn’t be anywhere near the Premier League. Crystal Palace – Jordan Ayew – Once again, should not be a Premier League, at best a top half Championship player Leeds United – Tyler Adams – A half decent physical player, but doesn’t look like he knows how to actually play football in a technical POV. No goals or Assists in 22 league games, probably part of the reason they are fighting relegation.
Nottingham Forrest – Morgan Gibbs-White – Just doesn’t seem to do much in terms of overall goal involvement and the game itself when on the ball, purchased for a ridicilously high price as well. For my part, I think it makes sense to put the referee in charge of the clock, starting and stopping a 90-minute countdown while the ball is in and out of play. It would be a new skill for them to learn, and there would absolutely be growing pains, but broadcasting the clock from the ref’s watch to the scoreboard is hardly a technical challenge.
Thought we started very slow but came into the game well and had some good early chances, brings me on to.. You say that Soucek was never world class? Seriously? How long have you supported this club and watched global football? Not long enough obviously. When we signed him it was a massive coup. The season before he single handedly took Chelsea apart . And in his first season he was our most valuable player . The reason why his form has dropped off so badly is that Moyes gave DR free rein and told Soucek to play defensive mid. He also ran him into the ground, never giving him a rest.
