For that match to be close at the end, mind at all. We have to get a killer instinct and every player needs the attitude of o9.
This is why we need a change , teams around us can kill games , we haven't since this time last year and no signs of us playing the type of football to do this . This league requires teams to be organised, well driĺled with a definite style of play, we don't have any
We were organised in the first half and should have scored a few more. A nervy start to the 2nd half set the tone for the rest of the game. We were all over the place and it just seemed that we were trying to throw away the lead. No one in that team can grab the game by the scruff of the neck and get us organised to see a game out comfortably. MK Dons were awful but we once again bowed down to their ****house tactics which the ref also fell for. Anyway in the end it's 3 points on the board.
Trying to work out who was responsible for that second half. Players or the manager. Bit of both I suspect 2 nil up one or two started showboating then came out second half sat back and just didn't work hard enough You're right about o9 he is not the best technically but is improving. However his work rate was outstanding
Mind their goal, whether you are in the Ross in or out camp, or on the fence, that wasn’t down to him. It was a shambles
I get people having doubts about Ross, but I Saw a twitter comment saying Ross is a 2nd rate Moyes. **** sake, people have short memories! We're missing a younger version of Leadbitter. Atm, the midfield is either young and full of energy or experienced but a bit too old. Need a player somewhere in the middle. Yes we have mcgeouch but he lacks consistency (imo). We also need a new forward. One who can score goals. Madison would be good to get as well if we can. Guess that depends on the ownership though. I'm sick of our players getting kicked and pushed with no or little consequence though!
Does it really matter? As it happens I was sat waiting for the delayed 1730 train and not really paying much attention.
O'Nien will become a legend here. He is exactly that type of player we love. Limited ability but 100% passion and effort every game.
It's a real puzzle. The home support has had so few chances to relax and really enjoy a game. Yet we had this game on a plate and ended up with people trudging out at the end. I'm praying we just go nuts at Lincoln and attack for 90 minutes.
Kevin Keegan wasn't the most technically gifted of footballers but his effort and workrate in games, and dedication to improve himself ended up with him being European Footballer of The Year.
If we do well we could outgrow him but I won't forget. Model pro who has gone above and beyond off the pitch and given everything on it.
