a) he doesn't deserve to be insulted
b) IT'S THE FUCKING PLAYERS!!!
Against Plymouth away it was "they must all have Covid" to explain utter dross, now it's Stockley is missing. With Bowyer for 4 months all we heard was "center backs".
Adkins went into the season with no left back, a half fit center half with no replacement, only 3 fit center midfielders and no left winger. We got beat by 3 of the current top 6. The team were booed off the pitch.
Now I am not excusing what happened next but getting 1 point from the 1st 4 games puts you right behind the 8 ball and already the manager is in a very difficult position.
Over the last 18 months it's been utter dross apart from a 10 or so game spell under each of the 3 managers. I was a massive critic of Bowyer but I also said just sacking Adkins won't solve everything. It hasn't. And was never going to.
That's why they looked unfit under Adkins and Bowyer and suddenly got fit within 48 hours of them both leaving. They look unfit again, to me.
I would urge everyone to read the 1st 2 pages of the post match threads of Sunderland away, for the last two seasons. It's the same with the post match interviews. They were only 5 months apart.
I can't remember if it was the Accrington or Bolton home game but one of the goals came from down our right where 5 times our players either missed challenges or went in half hearted. Anyone of them could have stopped that happening. The same thing, exactly the same thing happened under Bowyer this time last year.
The same 3 players were dropped, or should have been, by Bowyer and then Adkins and were at worst very good as soon as the manager changed.
One was even a strong candidate for Bowyer's "he will never play for me again". Adkins then picked him for almost every game last season. Adkins dropped him, Jackson brought him back. People were saying it was an example of Adkins not knowing what he is doing. Weeks later half the rumours thread is he isn't good enough. The players, some of them, are more fickle than the fans.1 -

What we need is someone with that final pass or cross, and someone to put it in the net.
I can see how he couldn't hold a role down at a level higher than L1. A good player but at that height, as an attacking player, you need real deliverables in terms of goals and assists......and/or a good set piece.
Might be an argument that not having a forward that the ball can stick to impacts his productivity.3 -

who are the 3? I genuinely don't know who they are - i'm guessing one is DJ (sorry if that upsets you Leuth) Matthews? Morgan?0

I wouldn't describe Leko as lazy either, but he does drift in and out of games. He also has that languid style to him, a bit like BWP, where he tends to stroll/lurk around waiting for something to happen. BWP would get pelters for not tracking back etc but that wasn't his game. His job was to put the ball in the net which he did. I like Leko, but we need to work out where we're gonna play him,rather than chopping and changing every week.2 -
Leko was daydreaming / on his heels, quite a bit against Norwich and was really frustrating me - DJ can't last 90 minutes which isn't great for a pro player and should shed some weight - he also has moments when he seems elsewhere. He's electric one game in 5 and then anonymous / poor.1
-
Leko's biggest problem is that he likes dropping deep to receive the ball, where he's more comfortable, which means he's not often in a position to be on the last man. He frankly looks a bit lost when it comes to getting on the end of chances, and his uncertainty of where to be means that he isn't always in a good position to receive the ball and the game passes him by0
-
Luton chief Nathan Jones would be unlikely to stand in the way of Elliot Lee' s switch to Charlton Athletic if the League One side want to turn the attacker's loan move into permanent one...
As reported in Luton Today, so could be a move is being discussed..rumour??3 -
Even in DJ's 'anonymous' games where he's not gotten good crosses away (and let's recall that even in the last game there was a peach that Washington should have stuck away) he's been industrious and defensively solid (yeah, he didn't have the defender's instinct get to a rebound in the last game, but that's hardly part of his remit)0
-
I have just looked on here as there's lots of new posts as I thought we had some transfer rumours. No, it's just two of you having an argument. Ffs4

YTS1978 said:Yeah, I can see where you're coming from @DOUCHER. Im not sure it's laziness, maybe just a the fact they're third division players! Either way Jacko needs to get a tune out of them as they have both shown glimpses of what they can do and have some ability.0

Just let him talk to himself, he will go away eventually..1 -

Why didn't we just bung him an extra 200k to sign in the summer. Would of saved 100s of pages of moaning!
Brilliant news though although this has taken about six weeks to do, god knows why.1 -

Ouch.4 -
agreed - this is a good move but sadly a few weeks too late3
-
Getting Chuks back a good signing. Proven operator at this level. Just need to get him on the pitch for as many mins as possible0
-
Chuks back is great news. If we'd been able to chuck him on at 60 mins we'd have got a point on Wednesday.0
