I expect a positive reaction on Wednesday night.
I can only think he changed formation to accommodate Mir up top. Didn't work. Might have done if a couple of the half chances we had were put away and we'd gone in at half time 1 up. I'd agree with Sabri, we weren't brilliant, but it wasn't a stinking performance from the players.
I think Sabri thought our quality would be enough to beat a poor-ish Wigan team. If you're going to give Mir game time, then this was probably the game to do it.
As you say, hope he learns from it. I put the responsibility for the defeat down to him but wont be critical of him, he's been excellent to date.
Fair post but I don't. If he'd had better quality to replace some of the players with, like he shoudl over a 46 game season, we'd have still come away with points.
Think he made a few bad choices, but also Bostock for Sow & Mir for Grabban is just too big a dip in quality, and that's down to Modesto & the board.
Sabri's gonna be forced to play as strong a first 11 as he can until Jan. Then, if we're to be able to genuinely cope with the burn-out of older players like Watson which will follow back end of the season, we have to bring in far more ready-now players than Bostock, Mir, Muric, Semedo, Ameobi etc.
To be fair Semedo also out didn’t help, silva should’ve started though that was odd too given he played well previous game
