Did anyone notice we started to get better at the moment Dawson got up and started barking orders whilst sabri stopd silent in the rain ? Coincidence i think NOT !!! The players had been given a rollicking by club captain and senior pro they were playing for pride at that point .GET him OUT of this club and all his assistants who are never seen .
i've screamed for him to be kicked out the club, so don't get me wrong, i think we are severely damaged since Barnsley last season and even upto that game badly stuttering, but it was the Barnsley game for me
however on that performance against Brizz with all the new faces and quite far off from the starting 11 as well match and season preparation, everything considered you can't scream for a sacking on that performance, there is lots to improve and put right and players to bed in and get upto fitness
what i liked was it wasn't huff and puff chasing the game, there were many good crosses and interplay resulting in point blank efforts and another huge pile of situations that with a bit more composure could of become something. Even this horrendous first half, in effect we were doing ok then mistakes getting severely punished, we had some great chances in the first half to of been ahead
I'd actually say the last 15 minutes is the consistent problem area, the changes get made, influential players get taken off, and it turns into headless chicken time, the last 15 minutes, consistently is where the work needs to be done, composure goes out the window and players start fluffing their lines, Freeman was maybe the player that comes to mind yesterday in the last 15 but it was a collective confused bunch headless chickens effort at the end
Sabri is getting it big time but the players have a responsibility and I can't blame Sabri for yesterday, the system and tactics were spot on
